Situational Ethics

Secular Humanism and Situational (or Situation) Ethics has been taught in public education for the last 50+ years.  Briefly, Secular Humanism believes man, not God, is the center of all things and has the solution to all things.  Situational Ethics teaches that you can do or say whatever YOU think will benefit the situation (or you) best.  It can be a lie; it can be immoral and unethical, as under the “old rules”, but now it is perfectly acceptable!

Humanist Max Hocutt says that human beings “may, and do, make up their own rules… Morality is not discovered; it is made.”  This is in agreement with John Dewey’s statement (mentioned in Secular Humanism) for without God “….. immutable truth is dead and buried.” and should that be the case then humans will arbitrarily make up “whatever seems right in their own eyes.”

Since the Secular Humanists do not believe in God they have no healthy “fear” of doing what is wrong and displeasing to Him.  So if God does not exist, then He cannot establish an absolute moral code, therefore they do not believe in fixed morals, absolutes, truth or any moral law of God, but they do embrace situational ethics: adjusting your morals, beliefs, and convictions to fit any situation, doing whatever you need to do in order to further your advantage. This also allows them to live out the narcissistic philosophy of “if it feels good-do it!”

Is it any wonder that “Anything goes” today?  It is common today for politicians, athletes, movie stars businessmen, journalist and people in general to lie, steal, cheat on their spouses, embezzle, commit indecent, immoral and unethical acts, view pornography  and use the foulest of language without showing the least amount of guilt, sorrow or shame!  You may have noticed and asked what’s going on?  Why it is Situational Ethics at work and its disciples acting out of this diabolical belief system…as wicked as it is.
  
To sum up in a nut shell, Secular Humanism, can be defined as a religious worldview based on atheism, naturalism, evolution, and ethical relativism.

So, parents and grandparents beware!  If your children are in public education they ARE being taught and are exposed to Secular Humanism  and Situation Ethics 5 days a week,  nearly ten months of the year, mandatorily!  Just how many hours a week do you have them spend in church?  How many hours a week are they being deliberately being taught YOUR Biblical values?  Time to act!  Parents!  Get your children into a good church with a good Sunday School program that diligently teaches a Biblical Worldview and be faithful to it!   A child’s mind is nothing to gamble on… No excuses! 


“Train Up A Child In The Way He Should Go: And When He Is Old, He Will Not Depart From It.” - Proverbs 22:

ETERNAL JUDGEMENT and THE JUDGEMENT OF THE BELIEVER

Did you know that judgement is a basic teaching of Christianity and the Jewish faith? Here is what the New Testament writer of the Book of Hebrews said; “Therefore let us move beyond the elementary teachings about Christ and be taken forward to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death, and of faith in God, instruction about cleansing rites (baptisms), the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. And God permitting, we will do so.” Hebrews 6:1-3 You may have noticed that this is not a common topic in today’s church! Personally, I do not think I have ever heard a sermon on it, though books have been written that cover the topic quite well. (For example Derek Prince’s book on Eternal Judgement is exceptionally good.) But, in the past this was not always the case, as we can see when the Apostle Paul stood before Governor Felix and his wife Drusilla explaining “faith in Christ Jesus”. “He sent for Paul and listened t...

THE APOSTASY and THE SECRET POWER OF LAWLESSNESS

  This is the 4th article in my End Time series. The Apostle Paul wrote these words of scripture to the church in Thessalonica. “Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers and sisters, not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us—whether by a prophecy or by word of mouth or by letter—asserting that the day of the Lord has already come. Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.” “Don’t you remember that when I was with you I used to tell you these things? And now you know what is holding him back, so that he may be revealed at the proper time. For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who...

SECULAR HUMANISM – AMERICAN’S NEW RELIGION

  Though the evidence of Secular Humanism can be found everywhere in our culture few individuals seem to be able to define it or identify its pernicious presence. Many do not recognize that Secular Humanism has become America’s new religion; for this very reason we must learn what it is and how it is affecting us. We need to seek answers to these questions: What is it? What does it teach? Where is it at work in our society today? First let us define it: (I have taken the liberty to copy this brief definition from a commentary of the late Bible scholar Dr. Donald C. Stamps.) “Secular humanism teaches that humanity, the universe and all that exists consist only of matter and energy shaped into their present form by impersonal chance. It teaches that humans have not been created by a personal God, but are the product of a chance process of evolution. It rejects belief in a personal, infinite God and denies that the Bible is God’s inspired revelation to the human race (atheis...
