It's time for a filter check, people!
It's time to filter our filter!
We all have certain filters, or ways we interpret truth, that can cloud or even block our ability to see correctly.
Imagine wearing that really annoying bright yellow or super blue pair of sunglasses and then looking at a white vase and thinking its really a yellow or blue vase.
Only to discover, it was your filter that was yellow all along. The vase white all along!
That is how we often look at the world, interpret truth and error.
It's also how we look at spiritual truths.
Take for example the Bible. Let's say you are with 5 other friends - all from USA and all reading the same English translation. Everyone is reading basically the same words .
You would think all 6 would take the exact same meaning away. But depending on their filter, each one may instead have a totally different opinion on what it means!
Now that's not a problem if the meaning is close to the truth.
But we all grow up being given our own filter(s).
We have to be aware of this fact. And one of the first things we can do as Christians is to be ready to see our filters and remove them as they come to light.
So with that as an intro - listen for more details! Enjoy! Grow! Analyze! Search! Move on!
Thanks again for listening!
