1. ABSENCE OF ABSOLUTE TRUTH
John 14:6 Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

“What is good for you may not be good for me, and what is right for you may not be right for me?” “Who are you to tell me what is right and wrong”

2. INSTRUCTIONAL VERSES RELATIONAL
This is a generation that wants relationships not facts. Not just event relationships where everything is superficial, but social relationships where life is experienced together.

3. FATHERLESS GENERATION
Malachi 4:5-6 5 "See, I will send you the prophet Elijah before that great and dreadful day of the Lord comes. 6 He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers; or else I will come and strike the land with a curse."

He indicates for us that the separation of hearts of both Fathers and children will be an issue in the last day or before that great and dreadful day of the Lord; the day of Judgment.
It is also indicated for us that the issue of separation will be addressed. And their hearts will be turned toward each other.

But then the prophet says if this does not happen I will strike the land with a curse.
Whether Elijah comes physically or the spirit of Elijah comes, the injustice of this issue will be addressed.

4. MOSAIC VERSES CONCRETE
So what is our response to this?

1. We need to first live genuine lives before them.
2. We need to admit when we are wrong and model repentance and forgiveness.
3. Admit we don’t have all the   answers.
4. Demonstrate grace.
5. Value relationships above things.

5. BOUNDRIES VERSES SECURITY
1Tim. 4:12
