WHEN THE CROWD BECOMES THE CONSCIENCE

February 1, 2026

Scripture never defines love or truth by the demands of a godless culture. So when social conditioning slowly replaces spiritual conviction, the crowd (or latest "cause") becomes the conscience, and truth is measured by outrage rather than obedience. In that shift, virtue signaling (rather than virtue) gain moral authority, and conformity quietly replaces faithfulness. “You shall not circulate a false report. Do not put your hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness. You shall not follow a crowd to do evil; nor shall you testify in a dispute so as to turn aside after many to pervert justice" (Exodus 23:1-2).
