truth in religion
Find truth from sources where it never changes.
One might think that finding truth in religion shoud be easy, and is the first place to seek it. However, we have been warned about those who would intentionally lead us astray with false teachings. We have to be on the alert and use our inner spirit of discernment at all times.
-Matthew 7:15-20
Common Sense: So Needed, Yet So Rare
One of the simplest yet most misunderstood ideas in our world today is common sense.
Here at From Truth to Freedom, we seek to bring everyday life back to timeless truth. Everyone agrees common sense is needed. Few seem to agree on what it is. And even fewer consistently practice it.
Why is something called “common” so uncommon? Why is sensibility very hard to find among those who are so influential in our society, and among those who actually “lead” our society in their various professions of politics, teachers, media, and even our religious leaders?
Why do so many people seem to be in a “haze” with their reasoning and decisions?
What Is “Common Sense” from a Biblical perspective?
The Bible does not use the modern phrase “common sense,” but it speaks often of wisdom, understanding, knowledge, and sound judgment.
The answer, according to the King James Version, is both simple and revealing: true common sense begins with God.
“The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.” Proverbs 9:10 (KJV) Scripture teaches that real understanding begins with reverence for God. Without that foundation, human reasoning may be clever, but it will not be stable.
Proverbs tells us:
“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.” Proverbs 3:5 (KJV) This verse exposes a core issue: What we call “common sense” is often just personal understanding. Biblical common sense is not trusting our instincts alone, but aligning our thinking with God’s truth.
Why Isn’t Common Sense Common?
If everyone needs it, why doesn’t everyone have it?
1. The human condition: The Heart Is Fallen
If we take our mind and heart away from God, where will we go to find the type of thinking we need to be happy and to flourish as a society? The Bible describes the human condition clearly:
“The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” — Jeremiah 17:9 (KJV)
COMMON SENSE ASSUMES THAT PEOPLE NATURALLY THINK CLEARLY AND MORALLY.
Scripture says otherwise. Sin clouds judgment. Pride distorts perception and makes us question reality and truth when it is right in front of us. Selfishness overrides reason.
What feels “obvious” to us is often shaped by our desires rather than truth. In other words, many times our “common sense” is dulled by what we feel that we want for ourselves, instead of what our mind is telling us is best for us, and others.
2. Pride Replaces Humility
Biblical wisdom requires humility. Yet pride is natural to fallen humanity.
“Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.” Romans 1:22 (KJV)
When people reject God’s authority and his Fatherly Love and guidance, they do not become neutral, they become self-directed. That is very dangerous territory. The Bible teaches that rejecting divine wisdom results in confusion, stupor, not clarity and understanding.
Common sense becomes uncommon when people redefine truth according to their own standards.
3. People Reject Instruction and Resist Change
Proverbs repeatedly warns against despising correction:
“How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? … and fools hate knowledge?” — Proverbs 1:22 (KJV)
Common sense grows through correction, experience, and teachability. But many resist instruction. The Bible describes a difference between the wise man and the fool; not intelligence, but response to truth.
A wise man hears and adjusts.
A fool hears and hardens.
Spiritual Discernment Is Required to have common sense
The New Testament makes a profound statement:
“But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him.” 1 Corinthians 2:14 (KJV)
From a biblical perspective, what God calls wisdom may seem foolish to the world. Forgiveness over revenge. Humility over self-promotion. Faith over fear. Self-control over indulgence.
Without spiritual discernment, divine wisdom appears unreasonable. Thus, what is truly “common sense” in God’s design seems rare in human society.
The Difference Between Earthly and Heavenly Wisdom.
The book of James draws a sharp contrast:
“This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.” James 3:15 (KJV)
“But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.” James 3:17 (KJV)
Earthly wisdom is self-centered.
Heavenly wisdom, Godly wisdom is truth centered.
Earthly wisdom asks, “What benefits me now?”
Godly wisdom asks, “What honors God and produces righteousness?”
Common sense, according to Scripture, is not merely practical thinking, it is righteous thinking aligned with God’s character.
How Do We Gain True Common Sense?
The good news is that biblical wisdom is available to all.
“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.” James 1:5-8 (KJV)
True common sense grows when we:
- Fear the Lord (reverence His authority)
- Study His Word, The Holy Bible
- Submit our understanding to Him
- Receive and accept correction humbly
- Walk in obedience
Psalm 119:130 says:
“The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.” Even the “simple” can gain understanding. Biblical common sense is not reserved for intellectual elites. It is granted to the humble.
At its core, common sense is not about cleverness. It is about alignment with truth. And, as Jesus said: “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32 (KJV)
When we abandon God’s truth, confusion multiplies. When we return to it, clarity follows.
Common sense is rare today not because it is complex, but because it requires humility and surrender.
It requires admitting:
- I am not the ultimate authority, and I don’t know everything
- My heart can deceive me if I submit to my pride
- God’s wisdom is higher than mine.
Yet when we accept that truth, we move from confusion to clarity, from pride to humility, from bondage to freedom. And that is the journey from truth to freedom.
In the past, common sense was more common indeed, because the people were more clear and moral. Not so much now. We need to fix that and start thinking with more common sense, individually, corporately, in our states and nationwide, if we hope for a better today and a more blessed future.
what the bible says about defending your nation
Throughout history, nations have had to make hard decisions about war, peace, and the defense of their people.
Americans, perhaps more than most, understand the high price of freedom. But what does the Bible say about defending your homeland? Does God approve of standing strong against aggressors, or should believers always seek peace at any cost?
The King James Bible shows us that while peace is always the ideal, there are times when national defense is not only allowed—it is commanded.
1. There Is a Time for War - Ecclesiastes 3:8
“A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.”
Solomon, the wisest king of Israel, understood that war is sometimes unavoidable. Nations are not always given the luxury of living in peace. When evil arises, when invaders threaten the innocent, the Bible acknowledges that war may become necessary.
2. God Prepares His People for Defense - Psalm 144:1
“Blessed be the Lord my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight.”
David, who was both a shepherd and a warrior, recognized that his ability to defend Israel came directly from God. This verse is not about aggression—it is about preparedness. God Himself equips His people to defend their land, their freedom, and their faith.
Joel 3:9-10
“Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up: Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong.”
In times of national crisis, God’s people were told to be ready. The shift from farming tools to weapons illustrates a hard truth: sometimes survival requires the courage to fight.
3. Leaders Are Charged With Protecting Their People - Romans 13:3-4
“For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? Do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.”
Governments are ordained by God not just to govern, but to protect. The sword is a symbol of authority and defense. A righteous leader wields it not for conquest, but for justice—defending citizens from those who would do them harm.
4. Fighting for Family and Homeland Is Honorable - Nehemiah 4:14
“…Be not ye afraid of them: remember the Lord, which is great and terrible, and fight for your brethren, your sons, and your daughters, your wives, and your houses.”
Nehemiah’s rallying cry rings as true today as it did thousands of years ago. Defending one’s homeland is not about glory or conquest—it is about protecting family, community, and the future of the nation.
5. National Defense Is Ultimately in God’s Hands - Proverbs 21:31
“The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the Lord.”
Preparation is essential. Nations should maintain strength and readiness. But ultimate victory and protection come from God. This verse balances responsibility with humility: we do our part to defend our nation, but we trust the Lord for the outcome.
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR AMERICANS TODAY:
For Americans, these scriptures speak loudly. We cherish liberty, and liberty must sometimes be defended with sacrifice. The Bible affirms:
- There is a time for war when peace is threatened.
- God equips nations, to defend themselves; when they honor and obey Him.
- Leaders are responsible to protect their people.
- Fighting to protect family and homeland is honorable.
- True strength and safety rests with God, not weapons alone.
In our modern world, where threats come in many forms—foreign aggression, terrorism, or even ideological attacks on freedom—these biblical truths give us both courage and perspective.
Defense of one’s nation is not about aggression; it is about protecting the innocent, preserving freedom, and ensuring peace for future generations.
As the Psalmist said: “Blessed be the Lord my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight.” (Psalm 144:1).
The Armor of God: Spiritual Defense for Every Believer
In the previous post, we looked at how the Bible speaks of national defense—protecting our homeland, our families, and our freedom. But the Bible also teaches that there’s a deeper kind of defense that every believer must be prepared for: Spiritual Defense.
While armies defend borders, Christians are called to defend their souls. The Apostle Paul, writing to the church in Ephesus, gives us one of the most powerful metaphors in all of Scripture: the armor of God.
HOW TO DEFEND AGAINST THE REAL BATTLE WE FACE DAILY:
The Apostle Paul reminds us in Ephesians 6:11–18 that our greatest defense isn’t military strength, but the Armor of God. Here’s the full passage in the King James Version, with commentary* below:
Ephesians 6:11–18
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
*COMMENTARY:
Know the Real Enemy (vv. 11–12)
Paul begins with a sobering truth: the fight isn’t against flesh and blood. The real enemy isn’t your neighbor, a rival, or even foreign nations—it’s the spiritual forces of evil that try to tear us down. Satan’s “wiles” (tricks, schemes, and deceptions) require more than human strength.
Expanded commentary:
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood”
- Paul uses the word wrestle — an image of close, hand-to-hand combat. This isn’t a distant war fought with cannons or arrows. It’s personal, direct, and constant.
- Flesh and blood means human opponents. Paul is reminding believers: the real battle isn’t against other people. Yes, people may persecute, oppose, or mistreat us, but behind human conflict lies something deeper.
- This keeps Christians from misdirecting their energy. Instead of hating or vilifying other people, we’re called to recognize the unseen forces influencing them.
“But against principalities, against powers”
- These words describe spiritual hierarchies of evil.
- Principalities (Greek: archas) refers to rulers, chiefs, or those with delegated authority. In a spiritual sense, it points to demonic beings that oversee regions, cultures, or spheres of influence.
- Powers (Greek: exousias) refers to authorities or forces with jurisdiction. This suggests structured ranks in the kingdom of darkness, much like a military chain of command.
- In other words, evil isn’t random. It is organized, strategic, and coordinated.
“Against the rulers of the darkness of this world”
- Here Paul gets even more specific. The phrase “rulers of the darkness” describes spiritual beings who exert influence over a fallen world system steeped in sin, ignorance, and rebellion against God.
- Darkness in the Bible often symbolizes sin, deception, and separation from God. (John 3:19, Romans 13:12).
- These “rulers” work to blind people to the truth, promote corruption in governments, religion, education, and economics. They spread false teachings and ideologies, and create division and chaos.
- Think of this as the spiritual forces behind destructive cultures, unjust systems, and widespread moral decay. Whether it is from the pulpit, Congress, or the marketplace, these rulers of darkness serve the Devil.
“Against spiritual wickedness in high places”
- Spiritual wickedness literally means malicious, evil, demonic, or corrupt forces that oppose God’s goodness.
- High places (Greek: epouraniois) can be translated “heavenly realms.” This doesn’t mean heaven where God dwells, but the spiritual dimension above the physical world and below God’s throne. It’s the invisible battlefield where demonic powers operate. These demonic powers instruct and lead those among us who are evil and hold high offices among mankind.
- The idea is that this war is fought not on earthly plains alone, but in the unseen realm that surrounds us.
The Big Picture of Verse 12
Paul’s point is crystal clear:
- The enemy is real, but it’s not human.
- Evil is structured, organized, and pervasive.
- The battlefield is both earthly (influence over people, nations, and culture) and spiritual (in unseen realms).
- Our own strength is insufficient. We need God’s armor (vv. 13–18) because we’re facing enemies we cannot see with human eyes or defeat with human weapons.
The Call to Stand (v. 13)
“Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”
This is the rallying cry. Paul says: don’t just pick one piece of armor—take up the wholeset. The goal isn’t retreat, but to stand firm when trials come. That “evil day” could be any season of temptation, persecution, or spiritual attack. God’s people are called not to crumble, but to stand.
The Armor Explained (vv. 14–17)
Each piece of the armor of God serves a vital purpose:
- Belt of Truth (v. 14) – Truth keeps everything together. Without truth, life falls apart.
- Breastplate of Righteousness (v. 14) – Righteousness protects the heart from corruption.
- Shoes of the Gospel of Peace (v. 15) – The gospel of Jesus Christ gives us firm footing and the ability to move forward with confidence.
- Shield of Faith (v. 16) – Faith blocks the “fiery darts” of doubt, fear, temptation, and sin.
- Helmet of Salvation (v. 17) – Assurance of salvation guards the mind from worry and despair.
- Sword of the Spirit, the Word of God (v. 17) – God’s Word is our offensive weapon to cut through lies and resist the enemy.
- Prayer: The Power Source (v. 18) Armor is useless if a soldier is disconnected from his commander. That’s why Paul ends with prayer: “Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit…” Prayer empowers the armor and keeps us alert. It strengthens not only ourselves, but also our brothers and sisters in Christ.
Why This Matters Today
For Americans who value freedom and defense, this passage offers a parallel truth: just as nations must defend their land, believers must defend their souls. But unlike earthly battles, this one cannot be fought with bullets and armies. It requires truth, righteousness, faith, salvation, God’s Word, and prayer.
Paul’s message is timeless: be equipped, stay watchful, and stand firm.
Our Final Charge
The strength of America has always been tied not just to its armies, but to the moral and spiritual fiber of its people. As Paul said:
“Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.” (Eph. 6:13)
Nations fall when people neglect truth, righteousness, and faith. But a people clothed in the armor of God cannot be shaken.
PRACTICAL APPLICATION FOR BELIEVERS TODAY:
- Don’t misidentify the enemy. People may oppose you, but the real enemy is spiritual. This should shift us away from hate and toward prayer.
- Stay alert to influence. Temptations, ideologies, and systems that oppose God are often fueled by unseen powers. Awareness is part of standing firm.
- Use spiritual weapons. Prayer, God’s Word, faith, anD righteousness are what equip us to resist these powers. Earthly weapons won’t work in this war.
- Don’t fear, stand! The verse doesn’t exist to scare us but to wake us up. God has already equipped us to face this battle in Christ.
In summary:
Ephesians 6:11-18 pulls back the curtain on reality. Our struggles are not merely political, cultural, or personal—they are deeply spiritual. If we fight people, we miss the real fight. But if we put on God’s armor, we are equipped to stand against even the darkest forces.

And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey. Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents. And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two. But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money. After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them. And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more. His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them. His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed: And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine. His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.
