3. REGARDING OUR NATIONAL RE-COMMITMENT TO TRUTH
Whereas it is widely observed and commonly accepted that the morally foundational and culturally uplifting concept of TRUTH is being systematically and aggressively diluted and devalued in our society,
And whereas the daily practices of dishonesty, deception, obfuscation, and fraudulent behavior are being consistently put forward by many leaders in most every area of our culture – namely: elected officials, financial bureaucrats, educational leaders, news media personalities, social media platforms and even liberal-minded religious spokespersons, etc.,
And whereas only destruction and death lay at the conclusion of this course,
It is RESOLVED, by the Southwide Independent Baptist Fellowship, meeting in annual session at the Beacon Baptist Church in Raleigh, NC, October 11-13, 2021, – that we call for a National Return to TRUTH.,
We call for a return to the simple yet profound concept that “Honesty is the Best Policy.”
We call for a return to the principles ensconced in our US Constitution affirmed as “self-evident” truths.
We call for a return to respect and reverence for the timeless, holy truth of the Word of God.
