The truth is the exact opposite. If you love God, you will speak the truth in love, & spend a lot of time alone because of it, probably, like Jeremiah did. It is love that compels us to tell each other the truth & love that constrains us from sinning like troopers. God is a God of order & of decency, not of mayhem, let 'er rip, anything goes, and each to his own. So many things are so completely out of hand in this country that it will take God's strength, God's mercy, God's wisdom, God's providence, God's restoration to fix it. Our job is to pray & do what is at our hand and with might. The worse the situation is, the more dramatic God's deliverance. We're depending on Him.
