The Bible says,
“…Thou hast magnified Thy word above all Thy name.” (Psalm 138:2)
If God has magnified His Word above all His name, then He most surely has exalted His Word above everything in this world! Every individual and institution must be judged by the standard of His Word. If that standard is refused, deception—which brings death—will permeate that individual or institution. Everything, and everyone, must be judged by the Word!
satan attacks the Word, and anyone and anything who can be a carrier of the Word. He attacks man because man is made in “God’s image” (from Genesis 1:26). He attacks institutions because they are all designed to carry the Word. You see:
- The Home teaches the Word to the next generation.
- The Church teaches the Home to teach the Word to the next generation.

A surgeon gets thinking and motor skills which will enable him to remove harmful things and reset body tissue so that God’s natural healing can take place. An automobile mechanic gets the understanding in his mind and skill in his hands by which to diagnose and repair your vehicle. God then intends for us to be taught by parents, pastors, and other teachers how to work with those skills to better the lives of others. They, in turn, pay us for our services, which betters our lives. God’s Kingdom gets advanced in both parties because each realizes that God’s way works; which encourages faith in God’s Word and His calling in other areas of life.
While fifty years ago a political candidate who would have openly embraced socialism as his political philosophy would have spelled his doom, today it’s becoming much more accepted due to the multitude of Socialists professors in America’s universities. They teach our young adults from a socialist perspective, and many, if not most, of those young adults come to think socialistically. Now they are running for office—and some are winning!
