Do You Build on Popular Opinion, or on the Rock of Truth?
In a world of shifting opinions and half-truths, we must anchor our lives and our movement on the immutable, unshakable truth of the Gospel.
Friends, fellow Builders, gather together. We stand at a time when the world—and indeed, even the digital spaces where we gather—is a torrent of opinion. Every moment, we are bombarded with voices shouting what is 'true' and what is 'right.' Some voices are loud, some are trendy, and some are simply popular. But I ask you tonight, as we gather in this digital sanctuary, a question that echoes across the ages:
Do you want to be merely popular, or do you want to be profoundly influential? Do you want to follow the current, or do you want to stand upon the Rock?
The challenge before us—the challenge of the Kingdom Movement—is not merely one of numbers; it is one of foundation. It is a challenge to discern the eternal, unshakable truth from the shifting sands of temporary culture. As we have learned from the prophets, the path to eternal life and the gathering of Israel requires more than just good intentions; it requires a dedication to truth itself.
Truth vs. Opinion: The Weight of the Word
The world loves the relative. It loves to say, “It is true for me,” or “It is true for you.” Truth, however, is not relative. It is absolute. It is not a concept that shifts with time, like a 'true of'—like saying 'I am a mother' or 'I am a student.' Those things change. But the Truth of the Gospel, the foundational covenant revealed by God, remains fixed.
“Truth isn't a what; it's who. It is who. Jesus is truth.”
When we speak of the Truth, we are speaking of the immutable nature of our Redeemer and the covenant path He has provided. This is the truth that anchors us, allowing us to resist the whispers of the world that seek to pull us into cycles of destruction.
The Call to Build: Following the Covenant
Think back to the ancient narratives. Consider Samuel the Lamanite, who did not stumble on the path to revelation, but climbed the wall of faith. Consider Ammon at the Waters of Sebus, who remained steadfast when the surrounding culture offered compromise. These were men of conviction who understood that true influence comes from standing firm on the absolute truth, regardless of the cost.
We, the Builders of the Kingdom, are called to be people of influence. Our mission is not to merely follow the popular tide; it is to declare the Word of God, even when it is unpopular. We are to build—and we must build—upon the Rock.
This movement, the global effort to gather Israel, is built upon this same Rock. It is anchored by the principles of the restored gospel, and it requires all of us to be women and men of the Word and of the Truth. We must protect our core beliefs, our foundational principles, because they are the anchors that prevent us from losing our way in the digital currents of confusion.
How Our Truth Fuels the Gathering
The truth we stand upon is not only internal; it is active. It must translate into action. Our collective effort to spread this truth globally—to make the Gospel advertising in Ghana and beyond—is the physical manifestation of our commitment to the Rock.
This is where the principles of GatherIsrael.now become paramount. This map is not just a visualization; it is a testament to the global reach of the covenant. It is our collective blueprint. Every effort, every donation to the Missionary Fund, and every act of service powered by the charity flywheel reinforces the fact that we are Builders, not merely echo-repeaters of popular opinion.
We are invited to be the modern-day 'digital striplings'—those who use the digital age not for fleeting opinion, but for the eternal work of the Kingdom. We are called to be the keepers of the foundational truth, the ones who understand that while 'true of' shifts, 'Truth' endures.
A Challenge for the Builders
Let us therefore choose to be influential. Let us choose the divine mandate over the transient applause. Let us dedicate our words, our resources, and our lives to the absolute, unshakable truth. Join us in making this gathering effort the most powerful movement of our time, building our lives, and our world, upon the Rock.
