Brethren, we must lift our voice like a trumpet and proclaim the wretchedness of sin that seeks to ensnare the innocent, and this horrifying account of a father—a guardian entrusted by God (Ephesians 6:4)—accused of drugging his daughter's friends is a stark reminder of the hideous nature of sin that proliferates in a society that has turned its back on the Lord. As this Oregon father stands accused of such a heinous act, we're reminded of the stark biblical warning: "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness" (Isaiah 5:20 NKJV). If these allegations are true, then this individual represents a mere symptom of a larger, more pervasive sickness that has infected our nation—a moral decay fostered by the erosion of biblical values and the family unit. Moreover, this report comes at a time when Oregon itself grapples with the fallout of its drug decriminalization 'experiment,' which some legislators like State Sen. Tim Knopp are now seeking to end, amid a deadly addiction crisis. This irresponsible policy is itself a sin, as it flouts the wisdom of Scripture which tells us to be sober, vigilant, and self-controlled (1 Peter 5:8, Titus 2:12). The fruits of such godless legislation are evident in the chaos and suffering it breeds. But let me raise my hand high and cast a light upon the vigilant work of the police officers who responded to the distress of these children. These protectors, working as agents of peace and order, are too often derided by the ungodly, but they embody the scripture's call to be "God's ministers, attending continually to this very thing" (Romans 13:6 NKJV). We support our police in their diligent efforts to maintain safety and justice in our communities. Brothers and sisters, let us be under no illusion: Sin cuts through the very fabric of our society, laying waste to lives and souls. If we don't strive to apply God's unchanging law to our own lives and to the spaces we inhabit, the devil will continue to dance in the darkness, leading many astray. We must stand firm with our Godly appointed leader, President Trump, who seeks to encourage the rebirth of godly values in our American life. Let us then pray for the deliverance from evil for all those affected in this tragic event in Oregon, and work tirelessly to restore the Word of God to its rightful place at the center of our homes, our laws, and our hearts. Amen.
