We all have one Creator so why are we in so much conflict with each other?

Malachi 2:10

“Have we not all one Father? Has not one God created us? Why do we deal treacherously with one another by profaning the covenant of the fathers?” Malachi 2:10

This verse teaches us that honoring God is key to honoring one another. Since we all share one Creator, why do we treat each other unkindly? This reflects the teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ who said, “The first of all the commandments is: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment. And the second, like it, is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.” Mark 12:29-31

Today’s culture gives no attention to the covenant God made with us through Jesus Christ, which promises forgiveness of sins, life in the Spirit, and eternal life to those who come to Him. They forfeit the Holy Spirit granted through the remission of sin. They do not love God with all their heart, soul, and mind, and neither are their relationships with other people grounded in love through the Holy Spirit. Belief in God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit is ignored as they honor human beings…they serve the creation instead of God the creator.

Conflict and division are seen across all sectors of society today. This discord is present in the homes, between neighbors, in workplaces, schools, public events, politics, law enforcement, the healthcare sector, etc. Churches have abandoned the teachings of Christ, government legislators no longer include the values of the Bible in laws and policies, the education system prohibits Bible teachings in classrooms, and Christianity is unwelcomed in the community.

In today’s culture, belief in God is stigmatized, while the esteem, dignity, and respect for human beings are upheld as the source of salvation for humanity and the planet. Separating honor for God from honor for human beings is called humanism, and humanism is the fig leaf worn by the atheistic entity that has power over physiology to give people what to think, feel, say, and do. Humanism is “…an outlook or system of thought attaching prime importance to human rather than divine or supernatural matters. Humanist beliefs stress the potential value and goodness of human beings, emphasize common human needs, and seek solely rational ways of solving human problems…”

Malachi 1:6 sets the tone for his prophecy and relates to honoring human beings and human authority but not honoring God and His authority, “A son honors his father, and a servant his master. If then I am the Father, where is My honor? And if I am a Master, where is My reverence? “Malachi 1:6 In Deuteronomy 33:9, the Lord God honors Levi for making Him more important than Levi’s own family, “[Levi] said of his father and mother, ‘I have no regard for them.’ He did not recognize his brothers or acknowledge his own children, but he watched over Your word and guarded Your covenant.” Deuteronomy 33:9 Jesus Christ said the same, “Who is My mother, and who are My brothers?” Pointing to His disciples, He said, “Here are My mother and My brothers. For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother.” Matthew 12:48-50

“….to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets,“
‘I will not impose any other burden on you, except to hold on to what you have until I come.’”
“I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.”
Revelation 2:24-25, 3:11
