I was on a University campus in
Louisville, Kentucky today and I noticed some T-shirts that
were being sold. The message on the T-shirt was "It doesn't
matter what you think, just think!"
Well now, if that isn't a
reflection of a prevailing philosophy of the time in which we
live. In the eyes of some, arriving at truth isn't nearly as
important as the pursuit of it. But friends, such a notion is
misguided.
While there is some virtue in
hungering for knowledge, the greater virtue is in arriving at
truth. Paul spoke disparagingly of some who were "ever
learning and never coming to a knowledge of the truth" (2
Timothy 3:7).
Friends, the message on the
T-shirt was half right. Think! we all need to do this. But
according to God's word, it certainly does matter what we
think (John 8:24).
