Speaker 1: Hey, everyone, welcome to Pastor Rick Warren's Daily Hope. Now
Speaker 1: we're going to continue our series today called Building My
Speaker 1: Life on Values that Last, and Rick will press on
Speaker 1: and show us how we benefit when we applied the
Speaker 1: Biblical principles of trust, self control, balance, respect forgiveness, moral purity, fairness, honesty,
Speaker 1: and love to our lives. All right, let's join Rick
Speaker 1: as he shares the final part of a message called
Speaker 1: Choosing My Standard.
Speaker 2: The Bible teaches that as believers, as Christians, we are
Speaker 2: to be tolerant. We should never treat people like animals
Speaker 2: or less than human. Even the worst criminal are the
Speaker 2: worst person that has the most immoral lifestyle. We're to
Speaker 2: treat them with love and dignity. Jesus did. Jesus accepted
Speaker 2: people without approving of their lifestyle. He didn't say, oh,
Speaker 2: do whatever you want, it doesn't matter. It did matter,
Speaker 2: but he did treat them with dignity. And so we're
Speaker 2: called to be tolerant in that way. But tolerance doesn't
Speaker 2: mean that anymore. Tolerance now means that every idea is
Speaker 2: equally valid, that every idea is equally true, that every
Speaker 2: lifestyle is equally right.
Speaker 3: And that is not right.
Speaker 2: That is false. It is not true that every lifestyle
Speaker 2: is equally valid. It is not true that every idea
Speaker 2: or thought or belief is equally true, because truth is narrow.
Speaker 2: Now this idea, well, there are all ideas are equally valid,
Speaker 2: and they are all the truth, even when they contradict
Speaker 2: each other. The ultimate expression of that, the extreme expression
Speaker 2: of that, is called political correctness. And I know you're
Speaker 2: familiar with that.
Speaker 3: One.
Speaker 2: God has something to say about this kind of non
Speaker 2: since Ephesians chapter four. He says they are hopelessly confused.
Speaker 2: Their closed minds are full of darkness. They are far
Speaker 2: away from the life of God, and they don't care
Speaker 2: anymore about right and wrong. Says they just don't care. See,
Speaker 2: some people are so open minded their brains fall out, okay,
Speaker 2: and some open minds need to be honestly closed for repair.
Speaker 2: They're not even thinking. Moses said to Pharaoh, let my
Speaker 2: people go. I think Moses would say today, let my
Speaker 2: people think. Use your brain and don't be conned by
Speaker 2: these pseudo philosophies that lead to a dead end. Now
Speaker 2: that's the cause. That's why there's all of the crime
Speaker 2: going up and the illegitimate season. The teen pregnancies and
Speaker 2: all that kind of stuff. So what's the cost. What
Speaker 2: is the cost of not having any standards, not having
Speaker 2: any values, and not even agreeing on what's true, right
Speaker 2: and wrong. Well, the answer is on the back that
Speaker 2: our cost is our culture is collapsing. Our culture is collapsing.
Speaker 2: And it is amazing to me that the people that
Speaker 2: are noticing this are not religious people, but the secular press.
Speaker 2: Just look at some of these magazine covers. I'm going
Speaker 2: to show up hold up here and these cover articles.
Speaker 2: They put this stuff on the cover because it sells.
Speaker 2: And every one of these are moral issues. Notice the
Speaker 2: first one here is on Time magazine lying. Everybody's doing
Speaker 2: it honest. Here's one, violence goes mainstream. Here's one on
Speaker 2: the business of pornography. America is now by far the
Speaker 2: leading world's leading producer of pornography over every enter nation. Suicide,
Speaker 2: Why do people kill themselves? Here's one on sexual desires,
Speaker 2: the new view of what's normal? Oh, I can't wait
Speaker 2: to read that one. Divorce not only divorce now, mom,
Speaker 2: I want a divorce. Kids divorcing their parents. We have
Speaker 2: children in crisis. The struggle to save America's soul. How
Speaker 2: our kids are being robbed of their childhood, growing up scared,
Speaker 2: busy bodies and cry berries, crybabies. What's happening to the
Speaker 2: American character? Good question, and the answer that is this
Speaker 2: magazine cover the generation that forgot God. That's what happened,
Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, with no God, there is
Speaker 2: no truth. As a result of that, we have a
Speaker 2: collapsing culture. Sure, let me read you some statistics. In
Speaker 2: the next thirty minutes, two hundred and twenty eight children
Speaker 2: will be beaten, molested, and otherwise abused thirty minutes. In
Speaker 2: the next thirty minutes, fifty seven kids will run away
Speaker 2: from home, and three out of four of those girls
Speaker 2: will end up selling sex to survive. In the next
Speaker 2: thirty minutes, twenty children will attempt suicide. Two hundred and
Speaker 2: nine eighty five children will become victims of a broken
Speaker 2: home in the next thirty minutes. Today, in America, adult
Speaker 2: bookstores outnumber McDonald's three to one. Every day in America,
Speaker 2: fourteen children in youth are murdered. Three hundred and twenty
Speaker 2: six children are arrested for alcohol offenses every day. Three
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty nine children are arrested for drug offenses
Speaker 2: every day. Three thousand, three hundred and fifty six high
Speaker 2: school students drop out of school every day. Every day,
Speaker 2: three thousand, five hundred and thirty three babies are born
Speaker 2: to unwed mothers every day. Six thousand and forty two
Speaker 2: children are arrested every day, thirteen thousand and seventy six
Speaker 2: public school students are suspended from school. By the way,
Speaker 2: every day, one hundred and thirty five thousand children pack
Speaker 2: guns or knives to school. America is now not just
Speaker 2: the leading producer of pornography, but we lead every other
Speaker 2: nation by a far margin of the number of citizens
Speaker 2: we have incarcerated. We have more people in jail in
Speaker 2: America than any other country. And I could go on
Speaker 2: and on about that.
Speaker 3: That's the cost.
Speaker 2: Look at this verse Proverbs twenty nine eighteen, where there
Speaker 2: is ignorance of God, crime runs wild, and we're seeing
Speaker 2: that today. Why is there so much crime and break
Speaker 2: down and guns and violence and gang warfare and all
Speaker 2: of this, and people are afraid to go out of
Speaker 2: their homes. Why is that happening because of an ignorance
Speaker 2: of God? Now follow me on this. If there is
Speaker 2: no God, then there is no standard of truth. And
Speaker 2: if there is no standard, anything goes. If I want
Speaker 2: to come burn down your house, I can. Because there
Speaker 2: is no objective standard. It may be right for me
Speaker 2: to burn down your house. May be wrong for you,
Speaker 2: but it's right for me. How many of you have
Speaker 2: ever played scrabble? Can I see your hands? Okay, let's
Speaker 2: say you invite me over for scrabble and we sit
Speaker 2: down and we're playing this game, and all of a
Speaker 2: sudden I come up with a word and it's snickelfritzer
Speaker 2: and you say, that's no word. Come on, Warren, what
Speaker 2: are you trying to do? I said, it's a word
Speaker 2: to me. That's no word. It's a word to me.
Speaker 2: And it gets fifty seven points because it uses the
Speaker 2: Z and you say, no, no, that's not a word. Well,
Speaker 2: you know what at that point what you have to
Speaker 2: do is you have to go to an objective authority
Speaker 2: called Webster's on Abridged Dictionary of the English Language, and
Speaker 2: that is an objective truth, and you look it up.
Speaker 2: And if snickel Fritzer is in that dictionary, I don't
Speaker 2: care what you think. I get the points. On the
Speaker 2: other hand, if it's not in that dictionary, it doesn't
Speaker 2: matter what I think. Even if I don't like it,
Speaker 2: it's not true. And I don't get the points. Now,
Speaker 2: this book God's Word, the Bible tells the truth. There's
Speaker 2: a lot of it in this book that I don't understand.
Speaker 2: There's a lot of it in this book that I
Speaker 2: don't like to read. There's a lot of it in
Speaker 2: this book that doesn't necessarily make sense to me. There's
Speaker 2: a lot that is not easy to do. But I
Speaker 2: want to tell you one thing. It is the truth
Speaker 2: because it came from God. It is the truth. And
Speaker 2: if you say something contrary to this, guess who's wrong.
Speaker 2: Our culture is collapsing. I actually had a guy tell
Speaker 2: me one time. I've heard this many times. You know, Rick,
Speaker 2: I have to be unethical at work because I have
Speaker 2: to survive, and everybody else is unethical, so I have
Speaker 2: to do it too. Now, listen, the moment that attitude
Speaker 2: becomes dominant in our society, we're doomed. It's over because
Speaker 2: every culture has collapsed when the people move to the
Speaker 2: I got to do whatever it takes when survival becomes
Speaker 2: more important than truth. And today, folks, what we're seeing
Speaker 2: is the witnessing of the flip flopping of values, and
Speaker 2: what used to be called right is now being called wrong,
Speaker 2: and what used to be called wrong is now being
Speaker 2: called right, And what used to be called perverted is
Speaker 2: now being called sophisticated. And we're flip flopping all of
Speaker 2: the values. What we do is we're turning criminals into celebrities.
Speaker 2: We put them in jail and then pay them big
Speaker 2: bucks to get movie rights and go watch their perverted
Speaker 2: life as entertainment. Hello, what's wrong with this picture? And
Speaker 2: today in our society we have pornographers who their own
Speaker 2: daughters are calling them incestuous, being nominated for Academy Awards
Speaker 2: and Oscars on one hand, while on the other hand,
Speaker 2: when a first grade boy kisses a little girl, he's
Speaker 2: hauled in for sexual harassment. Honoring one and destroying another.
Speaker 2: What's going on here? And while we kill millions of
Speaker 2: unborn babies and the elderly every day and don't think
Speaker 2: anything about it, we're avidly protesting the protection of insects
Speaker 2: and parasites. And on one hand, marriage is called out
Speaker 2: of date, confining medieval age servility for women and you
Speaker 2: don't need it, And look what God has to say
Speaker 2: about it. In Isaiah five point twenty. He says destruction
Speaker 2: is certain for those who say evil is good and
Speaker 2: good is evil, that dark is light and light is dark.
Speaker 2: God is not mocked, and he says, whatever you sew,
Speaker 2: you're gonna reap. And today what we're seeing happening in
Speaker 2: the decaying of our culture is we are reaping what
Speaker 2: we have sowed for the last forty years. Proverbs twenty
Speaker 2: nine to eighteen in the Good News translation says, a
Speaker 2: nation without God's guidance is a nation without order. It's chaos. Now.
Speaker 2: Our nation was founded on the two presuppositions that God
Speaker 2: is in heaven, our rights are endowed by our creator,
Speaker 2: and that we are to follow basic moral laws that
Speaker 2: He has laid out. And that's the cornerstone of our society.
Speaker 2: I runs read a study of fifteen thousand documents of
Speaker 2: the founding fathers of our nation, letters, articles, documents and
Speaker 2: discovered that thirty four percent of the quotes of all
Speaker 2: the founding fathers founding fathers of our nation were directly
Speaker 2: from the Bible. Thirty four percent. And you probably may
Speaker 2: have never even heard of this, but the United States
Speaker 2: House of Representatives, in with a Senate passed a resolution
Speaker 2: saying it's gone far enough. We believe that the Ten
Speaker 2: Commandments should be posted publicly anywhere, including any government building, office,
Speaker 2: and courthouse. Now House concurrent Resolution thirty one. Whereas the
Speaker 2: Ten Commandments have had a significant impact on the development
Speaker 2: of the fundamental legal principles of Western civilization. And whereas
Speaker 2: the Ten Commandments set forth a code of moral conduct,
Speaker 2: observance of which is universally acknowledged to promote respect for
Speaker 2: our system of laws and the good of society. Now,
Speaker 2: therefore be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the
Speaker 2: Senate concurring that it is the sense of Congress that
Speaker 2: won The Ten Commandments are a declaration of fundamental principles
Speaker 2: that are the cornerstone of affair and justice society. And two,
Speaker 2: the public display, including display in government offices and courthouses,
Speaker 2: of the Ten Commandments, should be permitted. Passed by the
Speaker 2: House of Representatives. March fifth, nineteen ninety seven, attested by
Speaker 2: Robin Carlisle Clerk. Now, now here's what I want to
Speaker 2: say about this. Even if the founding fathers of America
Speaker 2: had not believed in God, believed in God's word, and
Speaker 2: believed in there are moral rights and wrongs. God's truth
Speaker 2: will still be true because it's not dependent upon public opinion. Now,
Speaker 2: the question is, as we go into this series, not
Speaker 2: how can I change society? But how can I live
Speaker 2: a life of value in a world that can't even
Speaker 2: decide what's right and wrong? And how can I raise
Speaker 2: children with basic, lasting values in a world where teachers
Speaker 2: can't teach basic right and wrong because of relativity, secularism,
Speaker 2: and individualism. And how do I build my business on
Speaker 2: values in a world when everybody else is in a
Speaker 2: dog eat god, cutthroat world. What do I do? Notice
Speaker 2: what the Bible says, provert Psalms eleven three in the
Speaker 2: God's Word translation. When the foundations of life are undermined?
Speaker 2: What can good people do? And here's the cure. The
Speaker 2: cure is rebuild the foundation. Rebuild the foundation of your life,
Speaker 2: of your business, of your family. And that means start
Speaker 2: at the beginning with God. Why? Because God is truth?
Speaker 2: What makes something wrong? Not because we say it's wrong,
Speaker 2: but because it's anti God, it's anti his character. God
Speaker 2: is honest, so when we're dishonest, it's wrong. God is faithful,
Speaker 2: So when we're unfaithful, it's wrong. God is just so.
Speaker 2: When we're not fair, it's wrong. When we are different
Speaker 2: than the character of the creator who made us, it's wrong.
Speaker 2: When we are like the character the creator who made us,
Speaker 2: it's right. Does that make sense? That's how you decide
Speaker 2: what truth is Proverbs two nine. God. Circle that God
Speaker 2: shows us how to distinguish right from wrong, how to
Speaker 2: find not some poll or anything else, how to find
Speaker 2: the right decision every time. Now, I know that there
Speaker 2: are many schools and things that are trying to teach
Speaker 2: values without God. Listen, it is morality without God is impossible.
Speaker 2: I didn't say that. Abraham Lincoln did. And a moral
Speaker 2: government without God is impossible. I didn't say that. George
Speaker 2: Washington did. Check it out. Check the quotes out two
Speaker 2: Timothy three sixteen. Let's read this together. All scripture is
Speaker 2: inspired by God and is useful to teach us what
Speaker 2: is true and to make us realize what is wrong
Speaker 2: in our lives. It straightens us out and teaches us
Speaker 2: to do what is right. Now, I want you to
Speaker 2: circle the three things the Bible teaches. It says, it
Speaker 2: teaches what is true, it teaches what is wrong, and
Speaker 2: it teaches what is right. If God says it. It's
Speaker 2: absolutely true, whether I understand it, whether I agree with it,
Speaker 2: whether I like it or not. It's true because it
Speaker 2: came from God. Now you say, Rick, how do I
Speaker 2: know when something's truth and when it's just an opinion. Well,
Speaker 2: let me give you two characteristics. You write these down.
Speaker 2: How do you know when something's truth and not just
Speaker 2: an opinion. Number one, truth is universal. It's universal. If
Speaker 2: it is true, it applies to everyone everywhere around the world,
Speaker 2: in every culture. If it does not apply to everyone everywhere,
Speaker 2: it's not truth. It's an opinion. Because truth is universal.
Speaker 2: Number two, truth is unchanging. It's always the same. It
Speaker 2: doesn't change. It isn't impressed by fads or.
Speaker 3: Fashion.
Speaker 2: It is unchanging. For instance, if adultery was wrong four
Speaker 2: thousand years ago, it was also wrong two thousand years ago,
Speaker 2: it is wrong today, and it will be wrong two
Speaker 2: thousand years from today, no matter what else, what anybody
Speaker 2: else says, because truth is unchanging and it's universal. Now,
Speaker 2: facts change, but truth doesn't. For instance, twenty five years ago,
Speaker 2: science used to tell us the smallest particle of life
Speaker 2: is the atom. That's the truth. Well, the fact is,
Speaker 2: since then, we've discovered five layers beneath that quirks and
Speaker 2: all these other things, subatomic particles, and so that's not true.
Speaker 2: It was a fact, but it wasn't true. And now
Speaker 2: we know they're even smaller things. So when something changed,
Speaker 2: it was a fact that with more discovery we learned, Well,
Speaker 2: that wasn't really correct. Now, what's the benefit of building
Speaker 2: my life on absolute, universal, unchanging truth. Look at these benefits.
Speaker 2: So I'm one nineteen. God's word is a flashlight to
Speaker 2: light the path ahead of me and keep me from stumbling,
Speaker 2: he says. If I build it on unchanging truth, I
Speaker 2: won't stumble so much, you won't make so many mistakes.
Speaker 2: And then Proverbs sixteen is a promise. I remember last
Speaker 2: week I said there were over seven thousand promises in
Speaker 2: the Bible. Here's another one of them. Those who listen
Speaker 2: to God's instruction will prosper, and those who trust the
Speaker 2: Lord will be happy, prosperous and happy and keep from stumbling.
Speaker 2: So what's the bottom line, Well, it all comes down
Speaker 2: to a choice. Newsweek understood this when it did this
Speaker 2: cover Whose justice, Whose morality, Whose community? Whose family?
Speaker 1: Whose values?
Speaker 2: Whose values?
Speaker 1: That's the issue.
Speaker 2: Whose values are you going to choose to live by. Now,
Speaker 2: when you think about it, what's going to be my
Speaker 2: standard by which I make my decisions in life? You
Speaker 2: only have three choices, an internal source, an external source,
Speaker 2: or an eternal source. I can say my values are
Speaker 2: going to be based on me, because I know so much.
Speaker 2: I am the ultimate arbiture of truth, and I choose
Speaker 2: what's right and what's wrong, and I decide what's true
Speaker 2: and what's false, and so I will choose my values
Speaker 2: based on me. What I think is works, pragmatic, what
Speaker 2: I think is easy and convenient, and I am my
Speaker 2: own choice for choosing the stand I am my own
Speaker 2: standard for life. Or you could say I choose external standard.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna look at what the world does. I'm gonna
Speaker 2: go with the crowd, what's most popular, what's the current fad,
Speaker 2: And I'm going to choose that whatever the world says
Speaker 2: is right and wrong, that will be my standard too,
Speaker 2: realizing that in a few years that's going to change
Speaker 2: because fads and things change. But I'm going to just
Speaker 2: do whatever everybody else does. They're my standard. Or three,
Speaker 2: you say my choice is God because his choice, his
Speaker 2: truth is absolute, universal and unchanging. So as we start
Speaker 2: this series. You got to settle this issue before we
Speaker 2: do anything else. I want you to write down there
Speaker 2: my standard will be, and I want you to put
Speaker 2: one or three things. If you're going to say I
Speaker 2: am my own standard for life, have the courage to
Speaker 2: put it down me. I'm my own God, and I'm
Speaker 2: choosing to make up my own standards on what I
Speaker 2: think is right. Or two, I'm going to let the
Speaker 2: world determine my standards and what's right and wrong, and
Speaker 2: I'm going to listen to the talk shows and whatever
Speaker 2: the poll says, that's how I know what's right. Or
Speaker 2: I'm going to let God you might stand it right
Speaker 2: down g O D. Now, let me just be honest
Speaker 2: with you. If you picked me myself as a standard,
Speaker 2: you don't need to come back for the next ten
Speaker 2: weeks because, frankly, we're not interested in what you think
Speaker 2: is right and wrong. We're not even interested in what
Speaker 2: this pastor what I think is right and wrong. What
Speaker 2: I'm interested in is what does God say is right
Speaker 2: and what does God say is wrong? Because that's what counts.
Speaker 2: As I said, there's a lot in this book I
Speaker 2: don't understand, and it's not easy to follow but it's true,
Speaker 2: and if I do it, my life will be blessed.
Speaker 2: Now this week in this introduction of the series. Part
Speaker 2: one starts next week. Then this week, we've looked at
Speaker 2: the problems, and we've looked at the causes of those problems,
Speaker 2: and this is all the negative you're going to hear
Speaker 2: now for the next ten weeks, because we're going to
Speaker 2: look at the solutions next ten weeks, a character value
Speaker 2: quality each week. Let's pray Father, I'm so thankful that
Speaker 2: you always tell the truth. You don't jive us, you
Speaker 2: don't blow smoke, You tell us just exactly as it is,
Speaker 2: and it's not always easy to hear, but it's always
Speaker 2: the truth and made today we be people who say
Speaker 2: my standard for deciding right wrong and truth is God,
Speaker 2: not public opinion, and not even what I feel is
Speaker 2: right or what I want to be right, or what
Speaker 2: I think is right or what's convenient, but what you
Speaker 2: say is truth. Help us to build lives on values
Speaker 2: and characters that last in your name.
Speaker 3: Amen.
Speaker 1: Wow, some powerful words from pastor Rick today. And now
Speaker 1: this is really one of my favorite parts of the broadcast.
Speaker 1: This is letters from our listeners.
Speaker 3: And now here's Rick I want to take a minute
Speaker 3: and tell you how important your support is to Daily Hope.
Speaker 3: Your generosity. When you give to Daily Hope, you're helping
Speaker 3: us take the message of Jesus Christ literally all around
Speaker 3: the world in the many places where there aren't missionaries
Speaker 3: or churches. These are called unreached tribes. Now, I'm sure
Speaker 3: you're familiar with the refugee crisis around the world. Literally
Speaker 3: millions of people have been displaced from their homes, particularly
Speaker 3: in the Middle East and in North Africa because of
Speaker 3: civil war and violence. One of those places is South Sudan,
Speaker 3: where over two hundred thousand people are living in refugee camps. Now,
Speaker 3: when people are under tension and in transition, they are
Speaker 3: more open to the Gospel than in any other time.
Speaker 3: These people who are living in refugee camps right now
Speaker 3: need the hope of Jesus Christ and the Gospel. Now,
Speaker 3: when you help Daily Hope Radio and Daily Hope Broadcast,
Speaker 3: we're not only broadcasting across America, but in places like
Speaker 3: South Sudan where the station airs our program three times
Speaker 3: a day, and we are told that many many people
Speaker 3: are coming to Christ in this war zone as they
Speaker 3: listen to these Daily Hope broadcasts, So thanks, thanks to you.
Speaker 3: Now let me just read you one testimony that we've received.
Speaker 3: Here's a note from a woman who's living in a
Speaker 3: refugee camp. They're in South Sudan. She said, my name
Speaker 3: is Joyce and I'm from the Central Equatorial State in
Speaker 3: South Sudan. I lost all five of my children and
Speaker 3: my beloved husband. This is in the civil war that
Speaker 3: was going on there, as well as our family possessions.
Speaker 3: During the recent fighting in the capital of Juba. She said,
Speaker 3: I had planned to commit suicide. There's somebody who needs hope.
Speaker 3: When I listened to Rick Warren's broadcast, the one called
Speaker 3: when you feel Like giving Up, I got inspired and
Speaker 3: I dropped the idea of taking my life that very night.
Speaker 3: And I'll continue to pray God to bless this great
Speaker 3: preacher and thank you for giving me hope. Joyce, we're
Speaker 3: happy to do that, and I want to say it's
Speaker 3: because of the listeners who are giving faithfully every month
Speaker 3: to Daily Hope. Do you realize that when you give
Speaker 3: to Daily Hope, you're helping reach people like Joyce? She
Speaker 3: was going to commit suicide in a refugee camp. Now,
Speaker 3: isn't God amazing how when you just give what you
Speaker 3: can give, God to it and he multiplies it and
Speaker 3: we reach out to people that none of us could
Speaker 3: reach on our own. Here's what I want you to do.
Speaker 3: I want you to pray for Joyce and today I
Speaker 3: want you to pray for all of the people who
Speaker 3: are in refugee camps, and pray that we'll be able
Speaker 3: to continue to broadcast on these stations, taking the good
Speaker 3: news of Jesus Christ and hope to people who need
Speaker 3: it the most desperately. It's your sacrificial giving, it's your
Speaker 3: prayer support that makes this possible. So thank you for
Speaker 3: whatever you can do, and God bless you. My friends.
