Truths That Transform | Rob Pacienza - The Reality of Absolute Truth | March 10, 2025
  • The trans movement became a major campaign
  • 00:00:05.675 --> 00:00:08.144
  • Issue in 2024. it pitted those who believe we
  • 00:00:08.144 --> 00:00:11.347
  • Make truth up for ourselves, versus those
  • 00:00:11.347 --> 00:00:13.883
  • Who believe in absolute truth.
  • 00:00:13.883 --> 00:00:16.052
  • Where does the argument stand today?
  • 00:00:16.052 --> 00:00:18.555
  • Find out next, on truths that transform.
  • 00:00:18.555 --> 00:00:44.914
  • Welcome to truths that transform,
  • 00:00:45.748 --> 00:00:47.517
  • A production of coral ridge ministries,
  • 00:00:47.517 --> 00:00:49.652
  • Where we are contending for the faith
  • 00:00:49.652 --> 00:00:51.688
  • And proclaiming hope to the nation.
  • 00:00:51.688 --> 00:00:53.623
  • I'm pastor rob pacienza.
  • 00:00:53.623 --> 00:00:55.525
  • In recent decades it has become fashionable
  • 00:00:55.525 --> 00:00:58.161
  • To talk of “speaking your truth.”
  • 00:00:58.161 --> 00:01:00.597
  • There's his truth, her truth, your truth, and my
  • 00:01:00.597 --> 00:01:03.233
  • Truth but what usually seems to be missing is the truth.
  • 00:01:03.233 --> 00:01:08.104
  • That's not random-it's the logical result of the philosophy
  • 00:01:08.104 --> 00:01:12.008
  • Adopted by our world which says that, since we are cosmic
  • 00:01:12.008 --> 00:01:15.645
  • Accidents who are here by chance,
  • 00:01:15.645 --> 00:01:18.248
  • Our experiences are what makes up the truth.
  • 00:01:18.248 --> 00:01:21.518
  • But on today's program,
  • 00:01:21.518 --> 00:01:22.785
  • You'll discover the truth about the truth.
  • 00:01:22.785 --> 00:01:26.422
  • Not yours or mine.
  • 00:01:26.422 --> 00:01:28.191
  • The truth.
  • 00:01:28.191 --> 00:01:29.492
  • And we begin with a look at a movement that has taken this
  • 00:01:29.492 --> 00:01:32.729
  • Subjective view of truth to the limit the trans movement,
  • 00:01:32.729 --> 00:01:36.733
  • Which says categories as basic as male and female
  • 00:01:36.733 --> 00:01:39.702
  • Are merely something you make up for yourself.
  • 00:01:39.702 --> 00:01:42.572
  • Our own christina vidal has more.
  • 00:01:42.572 --> 00:01:45.975
  • There is a poverty of truth,
  • 00:01:46.709 --> 00:01:48.311
  • And there's a poverty of truth
  • 00:01:48.311 --> 00:01:49.412
  • Whenever you take god out of the equation.
  • 00:01:49.412 --> 00:01:52.582
  • The whole tiktok generation,
  • 00:01:53.316 --> 00:01:54.918
  • The social media generation,
  • 00:01:54.918 --> 00:01:57.053
  • It is just indicative of the times in which we live.
  • 00:01:57.053 --> 00:02:01.057
  • The bible tells us:
  • 00:02:01.624 --> 00:02:02.926
  • “lying lips are an abomination to the lord,
  • 00:02:02.926 --> 00:02:05.728
  • But they that deal truly are his delight.”
  • 00:02:05.728 --> 00:02:08.831
  • But screeching voices from the left tell us,
  • 00:02:08.831 --> 00:02:11.834
  • ‘you can choose your gender identity'.
  • 00:02:11.834 --> 00:02:13.836
  • And lie to children by saying boys can be girls,
  • 00:02:13.836 --> 00:02:17.473
  • And girls can be boys.
  • 00:02:17.473 --> 00:02:19.342
  • There's confusion when you neglect god,
  • 00:02:19.442 --> 00:02:22.111
  • Then there's no longer any standard for truth.
  • 00:02:22.111 --> 00:02:24.514
  • And then people are whimsical about whatever
  • 00:02:24.514 --> 00:02:26.716
  • Their idea of truth is.
  • 00:02:26.716 --> 00:02:28.851
  • How did we go from 30 years ago,
  • 00:02:28.952 --> 00:02:32.255
  • Lgbtq represented 2% of our world
  • 00:02:32.255 --> 00:02:35.625
  • To it's now 30 to 40% of gen z,
  • 00:02:35.625 --> 00:02:39.529
  • That's 18 to 24 year olds
  • 00:02:39.529 --> 00:02:42.065
  • The national institutes of health reports
  • 00:02:42.165 --> 00:02:44.567
  • That in countries like sweden,
  • 00:02:44.567 --> 00:02:46.269
  • There has been a massive one thousand % increase
  • 00:02:46.269 --> 00:02:49.272
  • Of gender dysphoria cases from 2005 to 2018.
  • 00:02:49.272 --> 00:02:54.210
  • And right here at home, the percentage of people with
  • 00:02:54.210 --> 00:02:56.212
  • So-called gender dysphoria has tripled in
  • 00:02:56.212 --> 00:02:59.716
  • 4 years--the vast majority are young people under the
  • 00:02:59.716 --> 00:03:03.253
  • Age of 25, before their brains are fully developed.
  • 00:03:03.253 --> 00:03:07.223
  • Author and speaker rosaria butterfield
  • 00:03:07.223 --> 00:03:09.459
  • Addresses the normalization of trangenderism
  • 00:03:09.459 --> 00:03:12.528
  • In her latest book,
  • 00:03:12.528 --> 00:03:14.163
  • Five lies of our anti-christian age.
  • 00:03:14.163 --> 00:03:17.200
  • Does a gender anxious child exist?
  • 00:03:17.300 --> 00:03:20.303
  • Yes, very much like an anorexic child may exist.
  • 00:03:20.303 --> 00:03:23.940
  • That's different than what these people are talking about.
  • 00:03:23.940 --> 00:03:27.143
  • My husband ken butterfield has preached three sermons
  • 00:03:27.143 --> 00:03:29.512
  • On the sin of transgenderism.
  • 00:03:29.512 --> 00:03:32.148
  • And, and one of them, he said,
  • 00:03:32.148 --> 00:03:33.816
  • It's like dr. frankenstein met dr. mengele.
  • 00:03:33.816 --> 00:03:35.885
  • And they decided to go into practice together.
  • 00:03:35.885 --> 00:03:38.821
  • You know, we had a young man in our church,
  • 00:03:38.821 --> 00:03:41.424
  • Who came to me afterwards with tears in his eyes and said,
  • 00:03:41.424 --> 00:03:45.228
  • You know, when i was 12, i started to
  • 00:03:45.228 --> 00:03:46.262
  • Go down that track. and i wish
  • 00:03:46.262 --> 00:03:48.298
  • I had heard a sermon like that when i was 12.
  • 00:03:48.298 --> 00:03:50.466
  • Because i'd have a slightly different history now.
  • 00:03:50.466 --> 00:03:54.470
  • In his daily wire podcast,
  • 00:03:55.138 --> 00:03:56.639
  • Clinical psychologist jordan peterson
  • 00:03:56.639 --> 00:03:59.475
  • Speaks with whistleblower dr. eithan haim
  • 00:03:59.475 --> 00:04:02.211
  • About some of the practices of texas children's hospital's
  • 00:04:02.211 --> 00:04:05.948
  • So-called gender-affirming care.
  • 00:04:05.948 --> 00:04:08.618
  • ‘i've never seen the medical and
  • 00:04:08.718 --> 00:04:10.219
  • Psychiatric community do anything worse
  • 00:04:10.219 --> 00:04:12.722
  • In my entire life than what's been happening with
  • 00:04:12.722 --> 00:04:15.458
  • So-called gender affirming care.'
  • 00:04:15.458 --> 00:04:17.393
  • It's anti-language. it's not just a euphemism,
  • 00:04:17.493 --> 00:04:21.197
  • It's not just a few degrees off from
  • 00:04:21.197 --> 00:04:24.600
  • The truth, it's not oriented towards the truth,
  • 00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:26.703
  • It's oriented towards the exact opposite.
  • 00:04:26.703 --> 00:04:29.138
  • Completely, its diametrically opposed to reality
  • 00:04:29.138 --> 00:04:32.675
  • And to the truth.”
  • 00:04:32.675 --> 00:04:34.143
  • The biggest lie in all of this: well
  • 00:04:34.143 --> 00:04:37.146
  • “would you rather have a live trans child
  • 00:04:37.146 --> 00:04:39.582
  • Or a dead child?”
  • 00:04:39.582 --> 00:04:41.951
  • Right, this insistence, that to
  • 00:04:42.051 --> 00:04:44.320
  • Parents that if they dared voice
  • 00:04:44.320 --> 00:04:48.091
  • Opposition to this absolutely barbaric and unconscionable
  • 00:04:48.091 --> 00:04:51.894
  • Medical process, that they were basically
  • 00:04:51.894 --> 00:04:54.163
  • Dooming their children to death.
  • 00:04:54.163 --> 00:04:55.732
  • It's the most evil lie told in the history of medicine.
  • 00:04:55.732 --> 00:05:00.169
  • Since this interview aired, dr. haim was facing
  • 00:05:00.269 --> 00:05:03.339
  • Federal charges for leaking patient information,
  • 00:05:03.339 --> 00:05:06.609
  • As he blew the whistle on harm being done
  • 00:05:06.609 --> 00:05:08.711
  • To minors and their families,
  • 00:05:08.711 --> 00:05:11.547
  • But all the charges were dropped in january of 2025.
  • 00:05:11.547 --> 00:05:17.053
  • Somebody once told me that the greatest way
  • 00:05:18.087 --> 00:05:20.723
  • I can show you respect is to tell you the truth.
  • 00:05:20.723 --> 00:05:24.360
  • When we speak the truth,
  • 00:05:24.360 --> 00:05:26.229
  • It can come across as lacking compassion.
  • 00:05:26.229 --> 00:05:29.265
  • And here's why, because
  • 00:05:29.265 --> 00:05:30.733
  • Truth by itself can be offensive.
  • 00:05:30.733 --> 00:05:33.169
  • When you tell someone the truth
  • 00:05:33.169 --> 00:05:34.871
  • And they don't like it, they can
  • 00:05:34.871 --> 00:05:36.272
  • Accuse you of not being compassionate.
  • 00:05:36.272 --> 00:05:38.374
  • But to be compassionate is actually
  • 00:05:38.374 --> 00:05:40.777
  • To tell someone the truth because
  • 00:05:40.777 --> 00:05:42.678
  • You love them enough to be truthful.
  • 00:05:42.678 --> 00:05:44.881
  • We can speak the truth in love, but to not speak
  • 00:05:44.881 --> 00:05:48.151
  • The truth that is showing a lack of compassion.
  • 00:05:48.151 --> 00:05:53.956
  • And the church should really be the
  • 00:05:53.956 --> 00:05:55.425
  • Solution to the confusion and stand up and say,
  • 00:05:55.425 --> 00:05:58.594
  • Here's how god designed us in the beautiful
  • 00:05:58.594 --> 00:06:01.063
  • Way that he designed us. let's protect that,
  • 00:06:01.063 --> 00:06:03.599
  • Embrace that and help people who are
  • 00:06:03.599 --> 00:06:05.468
  • Confused to understand their god-given
  • 00:06:05.468 --> 00:06:07.870
  • Beauty the way he created them.
  • 00:06:07.870 --> 00:06:09.639
  • Designed to create equal opportunities
  • 00:06:09.739 --> 00:06:12.008
  • For women in education and athletics,
  • 00:06:12.008 --> 00:06:14.510
  • The federal law known as title ix,
  • 00:06:14.510 --> 00:06:17.146
  • Created 50 years ago, gives equal opportunity
  • 00:06:17.146 --> 00:06:20.383
  • To females across the nation.
  • 00:06:20.383 --> 00:06:22.452
  • But days before leaving office,
  • 00:06:22.452 --> 00:06:24.454
  • The biden administration tried to redefine
  • 00:06:24.454 --> 00:06:26.889
  • The word “sex” by inserting the term
  • 00:06:26.889 --> 00:06:29.725
  • “gender identity” next to it,
  • 00:06:29.725 --> 00:06:31.294
  • Undermining the original intention of title ix
  • 00:06:31.294 --> 00:06:34.497
  • For fairness for women and girls in
  • 00:06:34.497 --> 00:06:36.265
  • Sports and education.
  • 00:06:36.265 --> 00:06:38.167
  • But in 2025,
  • 00:06:38.167 --> 00:06:40.102
  • President trump issued an executive order
  • 00:06:40.102 --> 00:06:42.338
  • Establishing that biological sex
  • 00:06:42.338 --> 00:06:44.674
  • Will be the only criteria for determining
  • 00:06:44.674 --> 00:06:47.343
  • Male and female.
  • 00:06:47.343 --> 00:06:48.744
  • As alliance defending freedom's ceo and
  • 00:06:48.744 --> 00:06:51.247
  • President kristin waggoner said:
  • 00:06:51.247 --> 00:06:53.449
  • “this is a colossal win for women
  • 00:06:53.449 --> 00:06:55.585
  • And girls across the country”
  • 00:06:55.585 --> 00:06:57.553
  • No longer will men or boys be permitted
  • 00:06:58.488 --> 00:07:00.923
  • To compete against women,
  • 00:07:00.923 --> 00:07:02.492
  • Nor will males be permitted in female spaces.
  • 00:07:02.492 --> 00:07:06.229
  • Transgenderism is self-abuse.
  • 00:07:06.329 --> 00:07:11.334
  • You're destroying who you are.
  • 00:07:11.334 --> 00:07:14.570
  • One of walt heyer's most trusted family members
  • 00:07:15.605 --> 00:07:18.274
  • Opened the door to cross-dressing...
  • 00:07:18.274 --> 00:07:20.710
  • Causing his life to take a drastic turn.
  • 00:07:20.710 --> 00:07:23.713
  • It started in 1944 when my grandmother made
  • 00:07:23.813 --> 00:07:26.949
  • Me a purple chiffon dress and
  • 00:07:26.949 --> 00:07:28.951
  • Began to dress me up
  • 00:07:28.951 --> 00:07:30.152
  • And told me how cute i was.
  • 00:07:30.152 --> 00:07:32.388
  • And she said, this is her little secret
  • 00:07:32.388 --> 00:07:35.258
  • And as soon as my father found out
  • 00:07:35.258 --> 00:07:37.159
  • About our little secret,
  • 00:07:37.159 --> 00:07:38.227
  • Which had gone on for two and a half years,
  • 00:07:38.227 --> 00:07:40.630
  • It scared him.
  • 00:07:40.630 --> 00:07:41.898
  • And so he started disciplining me heavily
  • 00:07:41.898 --> 00:07:46.102
  • As a way to try to shape me
  • 00:07:46.102 --> 00:07:47.603
  • Into a man obviously that's just additional abuse.
  • 00:07:47.603 --> 00:07:50.806
  • You're just putting abuse on top of abuse.
  • 00:07:50.806 --> 00:07:53.943
  • And so then his adopted brother,
  • 00:07:53.943 --> 00:07:57.213
  • Who was my uncle fred, in his teens,
  • 00:07:57.213 --> 00:08:00.683
  • Began to sexually molest me
  • 00:08:00.683 --> 00:08:02.118
  • Because of the purple dress.
  • 00:08:02.118 --> 00:08:04.320
  • As an adult, walt heyer
  • 00:08:04.420 --> 00:08:06.155
  • Underwent gender transition surgery
  • 00:08:06.155 --> 00:08:08.491
  • And lived as laura jensen for 8 years
  • 00:08:08.491 --> 00:08:11.460
  • As a result,
  • 00:08:11.460 --> 00:08:12.595
  • He lost his family, his job and became homeless
  • 00:08:12.595 --> 00:08:15.765
  • Until he embraced god's truth
  • 00:08:15.765 --> 00:08:17.567
  • About his true identity.
  • 00:08:17.567 --> 00:08:19.402
  • He founded sex change regret.com
  • 00:08:20.202 --> 00:08:23.072
  • And has written 10 books,
  • 00:08:23.072 --> 00:08:24.807
  • His most recent: embracing god's design.
  • 00:08:24.807 --> 00:08:27.810
  • We don't know about consequences
  • 00:08:27.910 --> 00:08:29.645
  • Until we develop a full brain
  • 00:08:29.645 --> 00:08:32.348
  • And her cross-dressing me
  • 00:08:32.348 --> 00:08:34.984
  • And telling me how cute i looked,
  • 00:08:34.984 --> 00:08:36.619
  • Destroyed the image i had of who i was.
  • 00:08:36.619 --> 00:08:40.122
  • And so i struggled with that identity.
  • 00:08:40.122 --> 00:08:42.825
  • Mother of twin boys, angel bryan
  • 00:08:43.659 --> 00:08:46.162
  • Discovered a shocking revelation
  • 00:08:46.162 --> 00:08:48.064
  • About one of her adult sons.
  • 00:08:48.064 --> 00:08:49.865
  • I found prescription bottles for one of my sons
  • 00:08:49.865 --> 00:08:54.437
  • And estrogen on the bottle
  • 00:08:54.437 --> 00:08:58.541
  • And my heart just sunk.
  • 00:08:58.541 --> 00:09:01.944
  • And then to approach my husband
  • 00:09:01.944 --> 00:09:03.446
  • To let him know what i had found.
  • 00:09:03.446 --> 00:09:05.014
  • And together us being in that
  • 00:09:05.014 --> 00:09:07.450
  • Same spot of just what on earth,
  • 00:09:07.450 --> 00:09:09.785
  • This is our child, and he was raised in the church,
  • 00:09:09.785 --> 00:09:13.122
  • How could he not know that he was loved?
  • 00:09:13.122 --> 00:09:15.625
  • And how could he not know that
  • 00:09:15.625 --> 00:09:17.760
  • He was perfect in god's image.
  • 00:09:17.760 --> 00:09:19.895
  • 4 years have already passed since then,
  • 00:09:19.996 --> 00:09:22.732
  • But angel and her husband have promised
  • 00:09:22.732 --> 00:09:24.700
  • Themselves they would never lie
  • 00:09:24.700 --> 00:09:26.135
  • To their son about his true identity,
  • 00:09:26.135 --> 00:09:28.270
  • Regardless of the social pressures
  • 00:09:28.270 --> 00:09:30.539
  • And the pronouns their son prefers.
  • 00:09:30.539 --> 00:09:33.075
  • The trans movement,
  • 00:09:33.175 --> 00:09:35.011
  • A lot of times they tell you,
  • 00:09:35.011 --> 00:09:37.747
  • You need to respect my pronouns and
  • 00:09:37.747 --> 00:09:40.282
  • You need to call me a certain way.
  • 00:09:40.282 --> 00:09:42.385
  • What was the demand and how did you respond
  • 00:09:42.385 --> 00:09:46.555
  • If it's any different than you are responding now?
  • 00:09:46.555 --> 00:09:49.225
  • I told him if he was okay with not being a pronoun,
  • 00:09:49.225 --> 00:09:52.428
  • It would be great for me to just call
  • 00:09:52.428 --> 00:09:54.430
  • Him my child and love him as my child
  • 00:09:54.430 --> 00:09:56.365
  • As i always have.
  • 00:09:56.365 --> 00:09:57.400
  • When we got to that discussion, he agreed
  • 00:09:57.400 --> 00:10:00.836
  • That he was absolutely not a pronoun.
  • 00:10:00.836 --> 00:10:03.005
  • When we try to embrace the craziness of the culture
  • 00:10:03.105 --> 00:10:05.641
  • For the sake of just being loving,
  • 00:10:05.641 --> 00:10:07.476
  • That's not loving at all.
  • 00:10:07.476 --> 00:10:09.111
  • The real loving thing is to give people the truth.
  • 00:10:09.111 --> 00:10:11.480
  • We can give the truth in a loving way,
  • 00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:13.716
  • But truth by itself is the most important
  • 00:10:13.716 --> 00:10:16.185
  • Thing that will set people free.
  • 00:10:16.185 --> 00:10:17.787
  • My prayers have changed drastically.
  • 00:10:17.887 --> 00:10:20.523
  • So when all this first started, boy,
  • 00:10:20.523 --> 00:10:22.658
  • I thought i had to help god fix this.
  • 00:10:22.658 --> 00:10:24.393
  • So i was like, god, you got to do this now.
  • 00:10:24.393 --> 00:10:25.928
  • You got to do this before the drugs can harm him.
  • 00:10:25.928 --> 00:10:28.064
  • You got to do it now. do it now.
  • 00:10:28.064 --> 00:10:31.133
  • Once i surrendered really handing it
  • 00:10:31.233 --> 00:10:34.003
  • Over to god is that now my prayers have changed
  • 00:10:34.003 --> 00:10:36.906
  • To the space where i go,
  • 00:10:36.906 --> 00:10:40.509
  • God just bring him home to you,
  • 00:10:40.509 --> 00:10:42.211
  • Bring him home to the family.
  • 00:10:42.211 --> 00:10:43.846
  • And that's how my prayers have changed.
  • 00:10:43.846 --> 00:10:46.282
  • God has entrusted children to our care,
  • 00:10:46.382 --> 00:10:48.517
  • And if we are blessed to be able to have children,
  • 00:10:48.517 --> 00:10:50.786
  • We have to remember,
  • 00:10:50.786 --> 00:10:51.787
  • They're not really ours. they're the lord's
  • 00:10:51.787 --> 00:10:55.491
  • It's encouraging to see what appears to be
  • 00:10:56.492 --> 00:10:58.561
  • A recent awakening on the issue of
  • 00:10:58.561 --> 00:11:00.796
  • Gender-though as we'll share a little bit later
  • 00:11:00.796 --> 00:11:03.532
  • In the program, it will only be temporary
  • 00:11:03.532 --> 00:11:06.435
  • If we christians don't stay vocal and active.
  • 00:11:06.435 --> 00:11:09.739
  • But like so many other social pathologies,
  • 00:11:09.739 --> 00:11:12.341
  • The lgbtq movement springs from a rejection
  • 00:11:12.341 --> 00:11:15.845
  • Of absolute truth, making the
  • 00:11:15.845 --> 00:11:17.780
  • Individual sovereign and making god
  • 00:11:17.780 --> 00:11:19.715
  • A silent cheerleader for our personal choices,
  • 00:11:19.715 --> 00:11:22.918
  • If we acknowledge him at all.
  • 00:11:22.918 --> 00:11:24.887
  • But the bible tells a much different story,
  • 00:11:24.887 --> 00:11:27.289
  • As i recently shared with our congregation
  • 00:11:27.289 --> 00:11:29.325
  • Here at coral ridge presbyterian church
  • 00:11:29.325 --> 00:11:31.660
  • In fort lauderdale.
  • 00:11:31.660 --> 00:11:33.229
  • Today we continue our sermon series entitled
  • 00:11:34.263 --> 00:11:37.600
  • ‘how firm a foundation”
  • 00:11:37.600 --> 00:11:39.969
  • And the foundation we are going to be looking at today,
  • 00:11:39.969 --> 00:11:43.973
  • Is the foundation of absolute truth.
  • 00:11:43.973 --> 00:11:47.243
  • The whole goal of this series is to pursue
  • 00:11:47.243 --> 00:11:49.879
  • What we call a biblical worldview
  • 00:11:49.879 --> 00:11:53.616
  • Simply a lens, a framework, by which we
  • 00:11:53.616 --> 00:11:56.619
  • Are able to view all of life.
  • 00:11:56.619 --> 00:11:58.954
  • But a framework or a lens that is grounded
  • 00:11:58.954 --> 00:12:02.458
  • And informed by the infallible word of god.
  • 00:12:02.458 --> 00:12:07.029
  • As we look at the foundation of absolute truth,
  • 00:12:07.029 --> 00:12:10.065
  • We need to start with the
  • 00:12:10.065 --> 00:12:12.268
  • Definition of an absolute.
  • 00:12:12.268 --> 00:12:14.703
  • I want to suggest this definition,
  • 00:12:14.703 --> 00:12:17.306
  • An absolute is an unchanging
  • 00:12:17.406 --> 00:12:20.242
  • Point of reference or standard
  • 00:12:20.242 --> 00:12:23.145
  • By which you gauge right or wrong.
  • 00:12:23.145 --> 00:12:27.883
  • So therefore,
  • 00:12:27.883 --> 00:12:28.884
  • If that is the definition of an absolute,
  • 00:12:28.884 --> 00:12:30.986
  • Absolute truth is unchanging truth
  • 00:12:30.986 --> 00:12:35.157
  • Regardless of the culture,
  • 00:12:35.157 --> 00:12:36.826
  • Unchanging truth regardless of the time and history,
  • 00:12:36.826 --> 00:12:40.996
  • But an unchanging truth
  • 00:12:40.996 --> 00:12:44.133
  • By which we are able to determine
  • 00:12:44.133 --> 00:12:47.403
  • Right from wrong
  • 00:12:47.403 --> 00:12:50.039
  • It's no surprise to anyone here today
  • 00:12:50.139 --> 00:12:52.408
  • Or listening at home that
  • 00:12:52.408 --> 00:12:54.443
  • We are living in a time and experiencing
  • 00:12:54.443 --> 00:12:56.645
  • The most rapid change
  • 00:12:56.645 --> 00:12:58.314
  • In the history of the world.
  • 00:12:58.314 --> 00:13:01.483
  • Things are moving at such a rapid pace.
  • 00:13:01.483 --> 00:13:04.620
  • It leaves us to wonder,
  • 00:13:04.620 --> 00:13:06.956
  • Is there anything that is true today,
  • 00:13:06.956 --> 00:13:10.793
  • Will it be true tomorrow?
  • 00:13:10.793 --> 00:13:14.029
  • Is what is true this morning,
  • 00:13:14.029 --> 00:13:16.232
  • Will it be true a thousand years from now?
  • 00:13:16.232 --> 00:13:21.036
  • Our culture says this:
  • 00:13:21.136 --> 00:13:23.105
  • What's true for you doesn't have to be
  • 00:13:23.105 --> 00:13:26.375
  • True for me we can coexist.
  • 00:13:26.375 --> 00:13:29.578
  • The culture loves the word, “coexist.”
  • 00:13:29.578 --> 00:13:32.448
  • We can coexist in a world
  • 00:13:32.448 --> 00:13:34.950
  • Where you define what is true!
  • 00:13:34.950 --> 00:13:38.320
  • That we can believe in polar opposite truths
  • 00:13:38.320 --> 00:13:43.125
  • And they can still be true,
  • 00:13:43.125 --> 00:13:44.827
  • Both be true at the same time!
  • 00:13:44.827 --> 00:13:48.697
  • After, all truth is relative, truth is subjective,
  • 00:13:48.697 --> 00:13:55.537
  • But jesus says, i beg to differ.
  • 00:13:55.537 --> 00:13:57.873
  • He said, my word is truth.
  • 00:13:57.873 --> 00:14:01.243
  • And his word is unchanging.
  • 00:14:01.243 --> 00:14:04.046
  • He says, if you abide in my word,
  • 00:14:04.046 --> 00:14:06.115
  • Which is true, then you are my disciple
  • 00:14:06.115 --> 00:14:10.519
  • And you will know the truth.
  • 00:14:10.519 --> 00:14:13.255
  • And that truth will set you free.
  • 00:14:13.255 --> 00:14:17.393
  • In a culture that says all truth is relative,
  • 00:14:17.393 --> 00:14:19.695
  • There is such a thing as absolute truth.
  • 00:14:19.695 --> 00:14:22.831
  • That's why jesus is able to say,
  • 00:14:22.831 --> 00:14:24.833
  • I am the way and the truth and the life he's
  • 00:14:24.833 --> 00:14:29.405
  • Able to say, father sanctify them in the
  • 00:14:29.405 --> 00:14:32.341
  • Truth you see, the bible teaches
  • 00:14:32.341 --> 00:14:37.179
  • That ultimate absolute truth is not dependent upon you.
  • 00:14:37.179 --> 00:14:42.151
  • It's not true because you like it.
  • 00:14:42.151 --> 00:14:43.953
  • It's not true because you believe it.
  • 00:14:43.953 --> 00:14:46.255
  • It is totally separate from you.
  • 00:14:46.255 --> 00:14:49.825
  • And what the bible teaches us is
  • 00:14:49.825 --> 00:14:51.927
  • That truth does not conform to you,
  • 00:14:51.927 --> 00:14:55.331
  • But that you conform to the truth where
  • 00:14:55.331 --> 00:14:58.167
  • There is a price to be paid.
  • 00:14:58.167 --> 00:15:00.235
  • You might say i've heard of the law of gravity,
  • 00:15:00.235 --> 00:15:03.706
  • But when in an airplane,
  • 00:15:03.706 --> 00:15:05.741
  • I am going to open the door and
  • 00:15:05.741 --> 00:15:07.576
  • Just jump out and see what happens.
  • 00:15:07.576 --> 00:15:10.746
  • There will be a price to be paid.
  • 00:15:10.746 --> 00:15:13.015
  • I could look at that wall and say, i know it's a wall,
  • 00:15:13.015 --> 00:15:15.517
  • But i'm gonna run right through it.
  • 00:15:15.517 --> 00:15:17.987
  • There will be a price to be paid.
  • 00:15:17.987 --> 00:15:20.356
  • You see, none of us are foolish enough to believe
  • 00:15:20.356 --> 00:15:24.093
  • That all truth is simply relative
  • 00:15:24.093 --> 00:15:27.229
  • What is so significant about the absolute truth
  • 00:15:27.229 --> 00:15:30.199
  • That jesus is the christ?
  • 00:15:30.199 --> 00:15:32.401
  • Well, christians for 2000 years have been making this claim.
  • 00:15:32.401 --> 00:15:37.806
  • And this is the reality of that claim that if
  • 00:15:37.806 --> 00:15:42.277
  • Jesus is the christ, then he must be divine.
  • 00:15:42.277 --> 00:15:47.349
  • And if the divine is absolute, then jesus is absolute.
  • 00:15:47.349 --> 00:15:52.821
  • And everything that flows from jesus is absolute.
  • 00:15:52.821 --> 00:15:56.191
  • This is why this has been one of the cardinal truths
  • 00:15:56.191 --> 00:15:59.661
  • And cardinal tenants of the christian worldview.
  • 00:15:59.661 --> 00:16:03.098
  • You deny that jesus is the christ
  • 00:16:03.098 --> 00:16:06.735
  • And christianity falls apart.
  • 00:16:06.735 --> 00:16:09.104
  • And this was the foundational truth that jesus is absolute.
  • 00:16:09.104 --> 00:16:13.509
  • That jesus is the author source, determiner, arbiter,
  • 00:16:13.509 --> 00:16:17.179
  • Ultimate standard and final judge of all truth.
  • 00:16:17.179 --> 00:16:21.917
  • And so whatever flows from jesus is absolute.
  • 00:16:21.917 --> 00:16:26.588
  • Therefore, we don't have the option to say things
  • 00:16:26.588 --> 00:16:29.158
  • Like i am a christian, but.
  • 00:16:29.158 --> 00:16:32.961
  • You don't have that right.
  • 00:16:32.961 --> 00:16:34.863
  • Because what flows from the mouth of jesus
  • 00:16:34.863 --> 00:16:37.800
  • Is true because he is the embodiment of truth.
  • 00:16:37.800 --> 00:16:41.537
  • He is truth incarnate because he and the father are one.
  • 00:16:41.537 --> 00:16:47.009
  • Now you might also be sitting here
  • 00:16:47.009 --> 00:16:48.577
  • This morning and say, what's,
  • 00:16:48.577 --> 00:16:49.611
  • What's the big deal about absolute truth.
  • 00:16:49.611 --> 00:16:52.081
  • I think we can coexist in a world in a culture,
  • 00:16:52.081 --> 00:16:56.185
  • In a society without absolute truths. oh really?
  • 00:16:56.185 --> 00:17:01.356
  • If two people do not have an ultimate standard
  • 00:17:01.457 --> 00:17:06.128
  • Or an absolute truth to appeal to
  • 00:17:06.128 --> 00:17:09.465
  • It all comes down to who has the most power.
  • 00:17:09.465 --> 00:17:13.102
  • It's all subjective. this is what we call tyranny.
  • 00:17:13.102 --> 00:17:17.506
  • You don't believe me?
  • 00:17:17.506 --> 00:17:18.941
  • Just ask those that have lived under
  • 00:17:18.941 --> 00:17:21.677
  • The atheistic communist regimes of the
  • 00:17:21.677 --> 00:17:25.080
  • Soviet union and china that has murdered over
  • 00:17:25.080 --> 00:17:28.283
  • A hundred million people in the last century.
  • 00:17:28.283 --> 00:17:31.687
  • What happens when you deny the absolute?
  • 00:17:31.687 --> 00:17:34.656
  • What happens when you deny absolute truth?
  • 00:17:34.656 --> 00:17:38.527
  • It is the survival of the fittest.
  • 00:17:38.527 --> 00:17:40.696
  • It is tyranny to have a culture in a society
  • 00:17:40.696 --> 00:17:45.634
  • That rejects the absolute,
  • 00:17:45.634 --> 00:17:47.603
  • That rejects the existence of an absolute being
  • 00:17:47.603 --> 00:17:50.572
  • That rejects the existence of absolute truth.
  • 00:17:50.572 --> 00:17:54.643
  • The only thing we can do is tremble for a society
  • 00:17:54.643 --> 00:17:58.247
  • And a culture that exists as such.
  • 00:17:58.247 --> 00:18:01.550
  • It is the christian worldview alone
  • 00:18:01.550 --> 00:18:04.553
  • That delivers to humanity what they have been
  • 00:18:04.553 --> 00:18:07.055
  • Searching for for thousands of years.
  • 00:18:07.055 --> 00:18:10.092
  • Without absolute truths, there is no objective morality without
  • 00:18:10.092 --> 00:18:14.096
  • Absolute truths, there is no answer for justice.
  • 00:18:14.096 --> 00:18:17.399
  • There is no objective love,
  • 00:18:17.399 --> 00:18:19.067
  • And there certainly is no objective forgiveness.
  • 00:18:19.067 --> 00:18:22.871
  • All of the things that humanity
  • 00:18:22.871 --> 00:18:25.607
  • Has been searching for for thousands of years
  • 00:18:25.607 --> 00:18:28.410
  • Is simply a vain pursuit without absolute truth,
  • 00:18:28.410 --> 00:18:34.049
  • Without objectives.
  • 00:18:34.049 --> 00:18:36.118
  • It's why millions of christians have given
  • 00:18:36.118 --> 00:18:38.086
  • Their lives for this absolute truth,
  • 00:18:38.086 --> 00:18:40.822
  • Truth that is absolute objective and ultimate
  • 00:18:40.822 --> 00:18:44.593
  • Because it is only this truth that will set you free.
  • 00:18:44.593 --> 00:18:49.097
  • Let's pray.
  • 00:18:49.097 --> 00:18:50.599
  • Our father and our god, lord, i pray
  • 00:18:50.599 --> 00:18:52.935
  • That the absolute unchanging objective
  • 00:18:52.935 --> 00:18:57.906
  • Truth of god would be the very thing that
  • 00:18:57.906 --> 00:19:03.078
  • Set us free.
  • 00:19:03.078 --> 00:19:05.080
  • That lord, we wouldn't look to the philosophies
  • 00:19:05.080 --> 00:19:10.285
  • And the ways of this world
  • 00:19:10.285 --> 00:19:11.820
  • To find freedom and to find hope.
  • 00:19:11.820 --> 00:19:14.890
  • There is no hope in the subjective thoughts in the
  • 00:19:14.890 --> 00:19:20.495
  • Relative truths that are developed by this world,
  • 00:19:20.495 --> 00:19:25.067
  • But we need an absolute truth
  • 00:19:25.067 --> 00:19:28.303
  • That gives us a firm foundation and a world
  • 00:19:28.303 --> 00:19:31.974
  • That is constantly changing
  • 00:19:31.974 --> 00:19:33.842
  • And a culture that's constantly moving,
  • 00:19:33.842 --> 00:19:37.479
  • We need something that never changes.
  • 00:19:37.479 --> 00:19:40.048
  • We need something that is forever stable and steady.
  • 00:19:40.048 --> 00:19:43.952
  • It is jesus christ, the rock.
  • 00:19:43.952 --> 00:19:47.389
  • May our lives be grounded by this rock,
  • 00:19:47.389 --> 00:19:52.027
  • The only firm foundation, an absolute truth,
  • 00:19:52.027 --> 00:19:56.765
  • A standard of truth. that will be forever,
  • 00:19:56.765 --> 00:20:02.037
  • That we can bank our lives on
  • 00:20:02.037 --> 00:20:06.208
  • And set us free forever.
  • 00:20:06.208 --> 00:20:08.243
  • We pray all these things in the name of christ.
  • 00:20:08.243 --> 00:20:11.446
  • Amen.
  • 00:20:11.446 --> 00:20:13.248
  • Hello, i'm jennifer kennedy cassidy.
  • 00:20:14.116 --> 00:20:16.985
  • As dr. rob pacienza just shared,
  • 00:20:16.985 --> 00:20:19.288
  • Absolute truth exists,
  • 00:20:19.288 --> 00:20:21.390
  • And that truth begins with jesus christ,
  • 00:20:21.390 --> 00:20:23.725
  • The creator and judge and redeemer of our world.
  • 00:20:23.725 --> 00:20:27.329
  • In a day when so many people talk about “your truth”
  • 00:20:27.329 --> 00:20:31.166
  • And “my truth,” but not “the truth,”
  • 00:20:31.166 --> 00:20:33.568
  • It's no wonder that our world is so confused.
  • 00:20:33.568 --> 00:20:36.738
  • What started years ago with
  • 00:20:36.738 --> 00:20:38.273
  • Philosophers and academics claiming that
  • 00:20:38.273 --> 00:20:40.609
  • “all truth is relative” has resulted in doubts
  • 00:20:40.609 --> 00:20:43.945
  • Today about what something as simple as male and female are.
  • 00:20:43.945 --> 00:20:47.949
  • That's why we and our children
  • 00:20:47.949 --> 00:20:49.651
  • Need to build our worldview upon
  • 00:20:49.651 --> 00:20:51.720
  • The true foundation, and dr. pacienza will help you do that
  • 00:20:51.720 --> 00:20:55.624
  • In his book, how firm a foundation,
  • 00:20:55.624 --> 00:20:58.126
  • Which we would like to send you
  • 00:20:58.126 --> 00:20:59.328
  • As thanks for your generous donation
  • 00:20:59.328 --> 00:21:01.129
  • To the ongoing work of this ministry.
  • 00:21:01.129 --> 00:21:03.732
  • In a time of great confusion, filled with
  • 00:21:03.732 --> 00:21:06.501
  • The lies of the secular culture
  • 00:21:06.501 --> 00:21:08.136
  • And turmoil, we all need to be reminded of this
  • 00:21:08.136 --> 00:21:11.373
  • Sure foundation the rock-solid truth
  • 00:21:11.373 --> 00:21:14.643
  • Of the gospel of jesus christ.
  • 00:21:14.643 --> 00:21:16.745
  • In this book,
  • 00:21:16.745 --> 00:21:17.813
  • Dr. pacienza elaborates on the foundational
  • 00:21:17.813 --> 00:21:20.382
  • Truths of the christian faith to help you,
  • 00:21:20.382 --> 00:21:23.085
  • As well as your family and friends
  • 00:21:23.085 --> 00:21:24.786
  • And anyone you share it with,
  • 00:21:24.786 --> 00:21:26.321
  • Build life on the one thing that is immovable
  • 00:21:26.321 --> 00:21:29.791
  • The infallible word of god.
  • 00:21:29.791 --> 00:21:31.893
  • Discover the reality of absolute truth,
  • 00:21:31.893 --> 00:21:34.796
  • The problem of sin and its solution,
  • 00:21:34.796 --> 00:21:37.099
  • The deity of jesus christ, and other key biblical
  • 00:21:37.099 --> 00:21:40.202
  • Truths that will anchor your life and prepare you
  • 00:21:40.202 --> 00:21:43.004
  • To stand amidst the current cultural mess.
  • 00:21:43.004 --> 00:21:45.841
  • And if you're able to give
  • 00:21:45.841 --> 00:21:46.875
  • A generous donation of $60 or more,
  • 00:21:46.875 --> 00:21:49.277
  • We'll send you the book plus the set of sermons on dvd
  • 00:21:49.277 --> 00:21:52.714
  • From pastor rob pacienza that form the basis for it.
  • 00:21:52.714 --> 00:21:56.785
  • Perhaps get the book and share the dvd series with
  • 00:21:56.785 --> 00:21:59.588
  • A student or young christian that you know.
  • 00:21:59.588 --> 00:22:01.957
  • As you donate,

  • And you are also helping us impact the culture

  • In washington d.c., the providence forum, and more.
  • 00:22:17.472 --> 00:22:21.376
  • In a time when even the majority of american christians have a
  • 00:22:21.376 --> 00:22:24.579
  • Worldview informed more by the culture than by god's word,
  • 00:22:24.579 --> 00:22:28.583
  • This teaching on the foundations of truth is essential.

  • Or go online to:
  • 00:23:02.551 --> 00:23:07.422
  • President trump has signed an executive order entitled,
  • 00:23:08.623 --> 00:23:11.927
  • “keeping men out of women's sports.”
  • 00:23:11.927 --> 00:23:14.429
  • The order defines male and female
  • 00:23:14.429 --> 00:23:16.698
  • According to biology rather than
  • 00:23:16.698 --> 00:23:18.733
  • Subjective gender identity,
  • 00:23:18.733 --> 00:23:21.203
  • And bans males from female sports everywhere
  • 00:23:21.203 --> 00:23:24.239
  • That federal taxpayer dollars go,
  • 00:23:24.239 --> 00:23:26.541
  • Including the ncaa and the u.s. olympic team.
  • 00:23:26.541 --> 00:23:30.879
  • Surveys showed that this was one of
  • 00:23:30.879 --> 00:23:32.814
  • The key election issues in 2024.
  • 00:23:32.814 --> 00:23:35.917
  • The trump campaign made an ad that called out
  • 00:23:35.917 --> 00:23:38.987
  • Kamala harris's support for taxpayer-funded
  • 00:23:38.987 --> 00:23:42.057
  • Gender transition surgeries for prison inmates.
  • 00:23:42.057 --> 00:23:45.827
  • One of harris's own political action committees
  • 00:23:45.827 --> 00:23:48.897
  • Did an analysis that showed that this
  • 00:23:48.897 --> 00:23:51.166
  • Specific ad swung more voters
  • 00:23:51.166 --> 00:23:53.969
  • Than any other ad of the campaign.
  • 00:23:53.969 --> 00:23:56.338
  • American voters had simply had enough,
  • 00:23:56.338 --> 00:23:59.508
  • And the spectacle of male athletes identifying as female
  • 00:23:59.508 --> 00:24:03.245
  • And dominating female sports
  • 00:24:03.245 --> 00:24:05.480
  • Was the final straw for many,
  • 00:24:05.480 --> 00:24:07.482
  • Who were fed up with a culture that had gone insane
  • 00:24:07.482 --> 00:24:10.619
  • And could no longer tell male from female.
  • 00:24:10.619 --> 00:24:13.755
  • All of this is good news, and a great step towards
  • 00:24:13.755 --> 00:24:16.825
  • Regaining some semblance of national sanity.
  • 00:24:16.825 --> 00:24:20.529
  • But it's also just a temporary victory,
  • 00:24:20.529 --> 00:24:22.898
  • And we christians need to remain vigilant and vocal.
  • 00:24:22.898 --> 00:24:26.735
  • The truth of the matter is,
  • 00:24:26.735 --> 00:24:28.036
  • While our culture for the moment
  • 00:24:28.036 --> 00:24:29.938
  • Is rejecting some of the worst excesses of the trans movement,
  • 00:24:29.938 --> 00:24:35.143
  • Our culture has almost entirely bought its underlying logic
  • 00:24:35.143 --> 00:24:39.381
  • That desire has priority over biology.
  • 00:24:39.381 --> 00:24:42.551
  • Fifteen years ago, nearly 60 percent of americans
  • 00:24:42.551 --> 00:24:45.587
  • Opposed same-sex so-called marriage.
  • 00:24:45.587 --> 00:24:49.157
  • Today, nearly 70 percent of americans support gay marriage,
  • 00:24:49.157 --> 00:24:53.395
  • And it's been declared a
  • 00:24:53.395 --> 00:24:54.429
  • Constitutional right by the supreme court.
  • 00:24:54.429 --> 00:24:56.831
  • Opposition became support virtually overnight.
  • 00:24:56.831 --> 00:25:00.635
  • Once you've bought the cultural logic that
  • 00:25:00.635 --> 00:25:02.771
  • Our desires are more important than biology
  • 00:25:02.771 --> 00:25:05.707
  • And the vast majority of our culture has
  • 00:25:05.707 --> 00:25:07.576
  • Done exactly that when it comes to marriage
  • 00:25:07.576 --> 00:25:10.745
  • It's just a matter of time before
  • 00:25:10.745 --> 00:25:12.480
  • The culture also decides that feelings and desires
  • 00:25:12.480 --> 00:25:16.251
  • Are the most important criteria in what sex or gender you are.
  • 00:25:16.251 --> 00:25:20.722
  • We can be thankful for this recent victory,
  • 00:25:20.722 --> 00:25:23.525
  • But we cannot be complacent.
  • 00:25:23.525 --> 00:25:25.427
  • The only firm foundation for the gender view
  • 00:25:25.427 --> 00:25:27.929
  • That the majority of americans voted for in 2024
  • 00:25:27.929 --> 00:25:32.000
  • Is the creation design of god.
  • 00:25:32.000 --> 00:25:34.402
  • Males are male and females are female
  • 00:25:34.402 --> 00:25:36.871
  • Because god created human beings that way,
  • 00:25:36.871 --> 00:25:39.941
  • With a specific design and purpose
  • 00:25:39.941 --> 00:25:42.544
  • And we don't get to redefine that for ourselves.
  • 00:25:42.544 --> 00:25:45.747
  • Our culture dismissed god's design for marriage
  • 00:25:45.747 --> 00:25:48.149
  • And made up its own definition,
  • 00:25:48.149 --> 00:25:50.151
  • Tossing aside biology, tradition,
  • 00:25:50.151 --> 00:25:52.053
  • And fruitfulness, almost overnight.
  • 00:25:52.053 --> 00:25:55.023
  • The same thing will happen with gender if we
  • 00:25:55.023 --> 00:25:57.359
  • Pin our hopes on common sense winning the day.
  • 00:25:57.359 --> 00:26:00.795
  • Unless we plant our flag in absolute truth,
  • 00:26:00.795 --> 00:26:03.765
  • Everything will be up for grabs.
  • 00:26:03.765 --> 00:26:05.634
  • Male and female have nothing to do with feelings.
  • 00:26:05.634 --> 00:26:08.970
  • They are realities created by god almighty,
  • 00:26:08.970 --> 00:26:11.940
  • Who is the absolute,
  • 00:26:11.940 --> 00:26:12.941
  • Unchanging standard of all truth.
  • 00:26:12.941 --> 00:26:15.577
  • “so god created man in his own image, in the image of god
  • 00:26:15.577 --> 00:26:19.948
  • He created him; male and female he created them.”
  • 00:26:19.948 --> 00:26:24.185
  • Coral ridge ministries is contending for the faith,
  • 00:26:24.285 --> 00:26:27.188

  • And here's a look at the next truths that transform.
  • 00:26:53.682 --> 00:26:57.585
  • The christians allowed the world to talk them
  • 00:26:57.686 --> 00:26:59.988
  • Out of their confidence in scripture.
  • 00:26:59.988 --> 00:27:02.290
  • But what's happening is christians
  • 00:27:02.290 --> 00:27:03.591
  • Are reclaiming their heritage.”
