Have you ever been listening to someone speak and thought to yourself, “That’s not true,” or “He doesn’t know what he is talking about”? Perhaps, at that time, you were listening to a politician, car salesman, social media influencer, or even a friend. In today’s society, it seems that whoever speaks the loudest and with the most self-confidence, is the one who gets heard, even if what they are saying is not true.
Colossians 2:8-10 says, “See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ. for in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have been filled in him, who is the head of all rule and authority.” Don’t be led astray by those who boldly speak and flaunt their ideas in social media and beyond, because they do not possess real wisdom. Instead, turn your attention to Jesus Christ, who is the head of all rule and authority. He possesses all knowledge and wisdom.
