Tomorrow's World Commentary

We live in a world that is constantly telling us we are missing out on the best life has to offer. Whether it’s a limited-time sale, a short theatrical run of a movie, or even a chicken sandwich promoted with “get it while it lasts,” the message is the same: We must get what we feel we need now or risk missing out forever. This feeling has a name: FOMO or the fear of missing out. How can we not only avoid this fear, but be reassured that we will not miss out on a fulfilling existence now and in the future? - Full commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/what-is-fomo

How should a Christian—one who believes and follows the true teachings of Jesus Christ—view national pride? Is “Christian nationalism” God’s intent? Should we celebrate national holidays?

Storms, wildfires, earthquakes, and other natural disasters have frequently dominated the news over the past several years. These catastrophes cause massive power outages, food shortages, and billions of dollars in damages to personal lives and property. Natural disasters are going to happen, and sometimes they come without warning. Will you be ready when more disaster comes? Are you preparing like the ant? - Full Commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/consider-the-ant-and-be-wise

According to various polls, a substantial proportion of Americans have not been in the mood to celebrate the semiquincentennial, the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and foundation of the United States of America. Why? And what does it tell us about the state of the union? - Full commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/no-mood-to-celebrate-america-at-250

Citizens become excited when hearing the promises of those running for political office: jobs, lower taxes, economic prosperity, and peace and safety. Slogans offer bright promises, and documents like the Magna Carta, the Bill of Rights, and the Gettysburg Address plead for fair, just, and equal treatment of citizens in eloquent words. But do those in power follow them? Why do they sooner or later fall into corruption? - Full commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/is-humanity-capable-of-self-government

As the United States prepares to observe its semiquincentennial on July 4—the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, which announced the founders’ intent to separate from Great Britain—Americans are reflecting on the ways their nation has changed since then. But can you imagine yourself, in 1776, looking back 250 years before the birth of your nation? - Full commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/the-view-from-1526

Many have heard allegations in the news recently that a two-tiered justice system exists in the United Kingdom, although the concept is hardly new, nor are such complaints limited to any one particular country. The United States has certainly had its share of controversy. Should some get preferential treatment over others? What does God say about justice? - Full commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/a-two-tiered-justice-system

The Declaration of Independence, written in Philadelphia in 1776 after months of debate and negotiation, contains a beautiful statement of principle: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” It is an uplifting concept—recognizing, of course, shared equality in the eyes of the law and before our Creator. Yet, from that starting point, equality often seems to evaporate. - Full commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/its-your-choice

Liberty is defined as the power to act as one pleases. It is a state of independence and autonomy, of being free from restrictions and of having the right to self-determination. Liberty may be defined in different ways when speaking of it politically, philosophically, or religiously. Some may define liberty as the right to do whatever they want, whenever they want, with whomever they want! But most of us realize that true and lasting liberty comes with moral and ethical restrictions. - Full commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/true-liberty

Most people have probably been victims of a “divide and conquer” strategy at some point, in some theatre of life. Often, we do not realize it because we are too close to the emotion and postured wrangling of charges and countercharges, of arguments and personal attacks. This takes place in homes, churches, businesses, and even entire nations. What can we do? - Full commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/are-you-a-victim-of-divide-and-conquer
