Ideolatry Video Blog - Episode 3 Life Filters - Duration: 4:32.
We all believe that our reality is based on real truth.
But sometimes the truth that we live with is distorted
by a number of factors.
I'm Dr. Rich Masek,
the author of Ideolatry - God Is Not Your Problem.
I discussed various types of "Higher Power" decisions in
the previous "God Concept" episode and said that
various factors can influence your choices
about your beliefs.
These factors are what I call "Life Filters".
Life Filters can come from family structure and values,
peer or cultural influences, the traditions of religious
upbringing, or even the general activities of life.
Life Filters give rise to different perspectives that create
the reality in which we live, and they shape our
general attitudes, opinions, and moral or ethical codes.
The truth that we accept
is developed from these Life Filters.
As we develop beliefs that are guided by
our own experiences, we actually define our own
Relative Truth on an individual basis.
This Relative Truth can lead to flawed understanding,
because it may be based on biased perceptions
and inaccurate observations.
Our relative truth can also create a spiritual worldview
that clouds our Perception,
and can deceive us into living a misdirected life.
So what's the difference between our Relative Truth
and Absolute Truth?
Today, Absolute Truth can be a very difficult concept
to accept, since there is a growing tendency toward
relativism and the absence of absolutes.
Sadly, many are deceived and never take the time
to explore and discover real truth.
Instead, they merely live within the confines of the cloud
of their own Life Filters.
Your Life Filters develop your Relative Truth and your
Personal Reality, that is based on your own experiences.
Your Personal Reality can become the filter
through which you understand everything that you see
and experience.
One of our greatest challenges in the journey of life
is to discover Real Truth and reshape our
Experiential Reality to conform to this truth.
What you accept and live with is your reality.
Is your reality a reflection of truth?
Or is it founded in misunderstanding
or even outright deception?
Our Life Filters can shape our view of God.
For example, if you were raised with affection, you are
likely to experience God as being tender.
However, if you are raised in an abusive environment,
you might know God as punishing.
If you were raised with understanding and forgiveness,
you're likely to experience God as compassionate.
But if you live in a judgmental environment, you're likely
to experience God as condemning.
If you live without acceptance, you might experience
despair and rejection, and view God as oppressive.
Your Life Filters can lead to a powerful, deceptive
influence of Relative Truth.
This influence can prevent you from being able to see
and experience the Real Truth, that freedom is given
to the believer by God, through Jesus Christ.
So how do you realign your Life Filters?
Examine them in the light of God's Word
and study what His truth says about you.
God's Absolute Truth is revealed
through His Word, the Bible.
I invite you to read Ideolatry
and examine your own Life Filters.
You may gain a deeper understanding of Real Truth
through the exploration of God's Word, without the
preconceived baggage of your Life Filters.

And I hope that you will join me for the next episode
in which we will dive into the question, Why?
