Oh for a generation of leaders who dedicate their lives to truth, honour and freedom; who refuse to compromise with the shifting sands of our lost generation; who are not tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind

​​Oh for a generation who stand firm for truth without compromise.

"Compromise where you can, but where you cant, don't. Even if everyone is telling you that something wrong is something right. Even if the whole world is telling you to move. It is your duty to plant yourself like a tree, look them in the eye and say, NO, you move." (Founder of Shield, Peggy Carter in Captain America-Civil War)

​Oh for a generation who are not "tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming." (Eph 4:14).

​Oh for a generation who will dedicate their lives to truth, honour and freedom.

​"This world is an uncertain realm filled with danger, where honour is undermined by the pursuit of power; freedom is sacrificed; the weak are oppressed by the strong. But there are those who oppose these powerful forces, who dedicate their lives to truth, honour and freedom." - The Three Musketeers.

​Oh for a generation who know God and the testimony of God's people through the generations.

"The people served the Lord throughout the lifetime of Joshua and of the elders who outlived him and who had seen all the great things the Lord had done for Israel. Joshua son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died at the age of a hundred and ten..."  "After that whole generation had been gathered to their ancestors, another generation grew up who knew neither the Lord nor what He had done for Israel."  Judges 2:7-8, 2:10

​Or put another way by Tolkien in The Lord of the Rings: ​“The world has changed. I can feel it in the water. I feel it in the earth. I smell it in the air. Much that once was is lost; for none now live who remember it.”

    While much of what is written in this Blog may currently appear to be counter-cultural, given our post-truth culture, it is in no way counter-human beings. I am always for people no matter what they think, do, or may have done in their past. Where I put forward ideas or debate against certain ideology, behaviour, ideas, movements, politics, I remain very much on the side of the human beings even though I may be opposed to their worldview, behaviour and politics. Such opposition is generally out of concern for the ultimate consequences of such behaviour or ideas, especially for children.
