We hear a lot about how our race is “evolving” in the 21st century into some kind of better, more progressive species, despite everything we see around us that tells us otherwise.
The only ground for real human moral progress will be found, if it is found at all, in re-centering human value from our profoundly imperfect selves to the God who made us, the One perfectly revealed by the God-Man, Jesus Christ.
Apart from this coming to pass all that the most well-meaning people hope for the future of humankind is doomed to be lost forever.
“The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned.” 1st Corinthians 2:14 (ESV)
