Boy's & Girl's Hell In The Hall Series

3 When we have Colombines, Sandyhooks, we all shed tears, lament @ the horrible thing that has happened.

a If the “Let’s tear down the rules” crowd is right (no absolutes, no right/wrong, transcendent scheme of justice in the universe) then nothing wrong happened @ these schools.

aa After all, we’re just ANIMALS ANYWAY.

bb Lions eat gazelles, bats eat bugs, kids shoot kids. What’s the problem?

b The trust is we all know something horrible happened at these places (& dozens of others just like them)

aa No matter how adamantly men & women attempt to deny God, we still hint at His existence every time we “get moral” about something.

bb When you say something is good/evil, you have to have some overall moral scheme, moral law to figure out what is good/evil.

D To have a moral law, you have to have a moral law giver.

1 If there is no moral law giver, then there can be no moral law & what is, is.

a We can’t make any judgement about it!

b Even the most devoted relativists & avowed Atheists know when they’ve been wronged, treated unfairly, ripped off, abused, taken advantage of.

aa How did they get that idea? Who taught them?

bb Even kids who have never taken philosophy, theology know when they’re getting the shaft.

2 Johnny, no cookie before supper. Susie did!; Johnny, time for bed. Susie gets to stay up.

3 I believer every human being is born with a sense of transcendent justice because we are all born in the image of God. (Gen. 1. 26,27)

26 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."27 God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Gen 1:26-27 (NASB)

a God is a moral God, moral law giver, & He has written His moral law upon the heart of every human being (Rom. 2.12-16)

12 For all who have sinned without the Law will also perish without the Law, and all who have sinned under the Law will be judged by the Law;13 for it is not the hearers of the Law who are just before God, but the doers of the Law will be justified.14 For when Gentiles who do not have the Law do instinctively the things of the Law, these, not having the Law, are a law to themselves,15 in that they show the work of the Law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness and their thoughts alternately accusing or else defending them,16 on the day when, according to my gospel, God will judge the secrets of men through Christ Jesus. Romans 2:12-16 (NASB)

b When people try to get around this truth things get silly quickly.

aa “It’s wrong to impose your morals on others!”

When you tell me its wrong to do something aren’t you imposing your morals on me?

bb “There are no absolutes.” Isn’t that an absolute?

cc “No one’s moral opinion is valid because we all speak from how we’ve been indoctrinated?”
