DECISION MAKING IN A REAL WORLD

WHY WE NEED TWO VIEWPOINTS

Gen. 3:17

Eve should have gotten another viewpoint, or witness, before she decided to do what the serpent wanted her to do. Instead, she decided to trust the serpent instead of asking God what she should do. The result is that she embraced a false account of what God had actually tole her and Adam they could and could not do.

In our decisions we always need to get more than one opinion. Jesus called this two witnesses. In the Declaration of Independence they called it the laws of nature and the laws of Nature's God. Secularism has significantly removed the laws of Nature's God from our decision-making in America, and left us only with the laws of nature. This leaves us with a very lopsided view of reality. This is not the American way.
