What is good?
So exactly what is good or evil? It seems everyone has their own opinion of what the answer is. At least with me when it comes to pizza; pepperonis are good and anchovies are evil.
I’m reminded of a Christmas song that has a lyric line that goes like this: “…he knows if you’ve been bad or good so be good for goodness sake.” To be good for goodness sake is purely moralism.
Often times Christianity is considered by many to be a form of moralism. However, the big difference between humanistic moralism and Christian-based morals are found in their origins.
Humanistic moralism is derived from people and may vary by region, country, or individual. Christian morals are based on the Bible: God’s authentic word. And His word has remained unchanged since before time began.
“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!”
Isaiah 5:20
