Truth over everything

What is the most important value in the world ? Loyalty ? Faith ? Equality ? Many say prosperity. I believe the most important value is Truth. Seeking the truth for its own sake and not for any other reason.

Seeking the truth about whether this life that we have right now is really all we have and death is the end of everything or is there more. Seeking out whether God is actually real. Seeking out ones purpose here on earth. These types of questions frightens many of us as it may seem near impossible to find the answer to them, however what if that is the main reason why each of us are placed here in the first place - to go on a adventure of discovery.

How does one define truth? Pontius Pilate the roman prefect that oversaw the trial of Jesus Christ of Nazareth once asked Jesus "what is truth?" The dictionary defines it as "the quality and state of being true" as well as "that which is true or in accordance with fact or reality." I would add to the definition "that it is something that can be proven and experienced in reality in some form by at least one of our senses". For example when you drink water you can through your physical senses notice your thirst is quenched by the water, therefore one can conclude as truth that water quenches human thirst. This is validated not just from ones own experience, but can be proven scientifically.

Truth is linked to the hip with honestly and morality. Gods commandments is the point of reference for morality. Therefore one needs to act both honestly and moral in relation to Gods commandments in order to exemplify truth. Socrates, The Buddha, Jesus, Gandhi and many other historical figures exemplifed the truth by being honest and moral according to Gods commandments and anyone of us can to if we decide to.

In our current world of disinformation, social media and artificial intelligence, the truth is under heavy fire by the forces of deceit, envy, victimhood, self-righteousness and narcissism that has propagated throughout society. This has led to the tearing down of historic statues, faux outrage, devaluation of merit and new forms of discrimination. People who speak counter to the mainstream media rhetoric or narrative that happens to be the truth are cancelled or fired. Which is why now more than ever the silent majority needs to stand up for the truth and speak out. Speak it with convication both openly and privately. As only by doing so can we be truly free.

God vs Money

We live in a world currently where for most people, money is God whether or not they like to admit it. Secularism and consumerism has grown to such a extent that the pursuit of wealth and material success has become the center of people's lives. Many for the sake of accumulating money have put aside their ethics and compromised their moral values, demonstrating their idolization of money. Conversely, many no longer place much value in organized religion and spirituality . Some Church's have been vandalized and burnt down. Attendance has declined drastically, and religious institutions hold ever lesser sway over public discourse and personal beliefs. Mans struggle throughout ones life and history has been between whether one serves either God or money. This existential conflict encapsulates the fundamental question of where one's allegiance lies: with spiritual values or material pursuits. Choosing to serve God entails prioritizing principles of faith, morality, and compas...

The Lost Art of Sacrifice

In a world obsessed with comfort and self-gratification, the ancient wisdom of sacrifice stands in stark contrast to our modern mindset. Jesus's parable of the rich fool in Luke 12 serves as a powerful reminder that true abundance isn't found in what we store up for ourselves, but in what we give away. The Rich Fool's Fatal Mistake The parable tells of a wealthy man whose land produced an abundant harvest. Instead of sharing his blessing, he decided to tear down his barns to build bigger ones, telling himself, "You have plenty of grain laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry." But God's response was swift and sobering: "You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?" This powerful story reveals God's perspective—He abhors those who selfishly hoard resources while telling themselves to take life easy. By contrast, He loves those who take life seriously a...

What Really Killed Charlie Kirk

On September 10, 2025, at Utah Valley University, a tragic event unfolded that shook the western world to its core. Charlie Kirk, the 31-year-old founder of Turning Point USA and a vocal conservative leader, was addressing a crowd of young supporters when a bullet struck his neck. In an instant, chaos erupted, and Kirk was gone. President Trump labeled it a "political assassination," sparking widespread mourning and outrage. But just weeks prior, another heartbreaking loss occurred: Iryna Zarutska, a 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee, was brutally stabbed on a Charlotte light rail by a repeat offender with 14 prior convictions—freed due to lenient "progressive" policies. Kirk's last X post fiercely politicized her death, blaming the system that allowed her killer to walk free. Today, we're not dwelling on the graphic videos still circulating on social media. Instead, let's confront the deeper question: What really killed Iryan Zarutska ? And what really kil...
