Welcome to Apologetics with Carl Kerby!
Today, we’re talking about the enemy’s strategies.
One way Satan sows doubts about God’s truth is by using the national news media to paint Christian values in a negative light.
News networks have a reputation for having an anti-Christian bias. In fact, a national survey by Baylor University found that a full 1/3 of Americans felt their religious views were ridiculed by the media.
Truth is, news outlets often portray Christian leaders as prudish and out of step with society, and they typically depict traditional Christian beliefs—especially on cultural and moral issues—as either prudish or bigoted.
As World Magazine founder Marvin Olasky noted, “Powerful groups with anti-Christian worldviews dominate major media.”
With that in mind, we must evaluate the perspectives we hear from places like Yahoo News through the lens of Scripture, the “lamp to our feet” and the “light to our path.”
And what are other ways the enemy deceives? We’ll discuss them another time.
