Why do we embrace ideas that are bad – that are not going to end well? This week we explore the world of bad ideas.
Mark 11:15 begins a section of Scripture familiar to most Christians. Jesus purges the Temple. Animals are sold, money changes hands, and the demand for this activity is the animal sacrifice system. In a sense, the Temple was profaned by those who practiced a false religion. Greed and bad ideas that begin with greed cause the leveraging of religion for personal gain.
The World of Bad Ideas
Bad ideas often begin with an impulse that is followed – an impulse that is not based on truth or righteousness. These bad ideas usually seem rational when we don’t pause or when we don’t see the world from the perspective of Scripture. In fact, most bad ideas begin with a sinful desire that comes from a weak or even heretical view of God and His power.
The “Inoculation Theory”
Most of our challenges with respect to bad ideas come from not knowing the Bible. The study of Scripture equips us to function well in the world of bad ideas. This episode includes a discussion of the “inoculation theory” of ideas. Enjoy these powerful truths, and please send an email with your thoughts about these important truths this week.
