Many of us have, at one time or another, fallen into the lie of believing that if something has happened, it must be the will of God - even if it is a horrible thing that has come upon us! But where does that belief really originate?
It’s always wise to do a check on our personal doctrine. There are many areas we may be allowing things in that aren’t Biblical, things that masquerade as “new” or “enlightened,” but are really deceiving us.
I am ALL about getting as much cultural context as possible when it comes to reading the Word of God. It’s one of my favorite things to do! But occasionally when we DON’T know all the details, it helps us examine ourselves instead of dismissing old issues as out of date or something we are immune to now.
