This phrase is taken from Shakespeare's Sonnet
116 to describe love. While it is an apt, poetic
description of love, it also is the perfect modifier
of God's Word. If there is a word to describe the
current culture, it is "change." Our world is enamored with it, constantly changing its mind, its
values, its standards of right and wrong, its
worldview, and its priorities. Swept up in all of
this are societal attitudes about so many things.
Sunday Evening Worship
The ethics of honesty, hard work, and service
Our list could be much longer, but these representative items have all fallen victim to the world's
push for what it sees as greater freedom, satisfaction, and happiness. Those who rely on the Bible
as their infallible guide already know how the
story turns out for those who make themselves
the standard. "I know, O Lord, that a man's way is
not in himself, nor is it in a man to direct his
What was once right is now wrong. What was

wrong is now right. And while not every instance "There is a way which seems right to a man, but
of this is wrong, so many of them are the prodits end is the way of death" (Prov. 16:25). In Paul's

truck so that it could be easy to pull it out.
We managed to distribute food to 13 families at Redwood, 28 families at Maraposa and 30 at Alicedale. The
recipients were very grateful indeed. This is the time
they need this food most as they are cultivating their
fields. Our truck broke down because the roads in the
rural areas have been damaged by the heavy rains.
Many rivers and tributaries have burst their banks. At
Maraposa, our truck got stuck in the mud and was
pulled out by a yoke of four oxen. Some villagers came
and assisted us by
pushing the truck while others put stones under the
