As the world-famous French geneticist Jerome Lejeune (photo)put it years ago when he testified at the United States congressional hearings, “To accept the fact that after fertilization has taken place a new human has come into being is no longer a matter of taste or opinion. . . . The human nature of the human being from conception to old age is not a metaphysical contention, it is plain experimental evidence.”

So we must recognize three things

our oppressors like the status quo and want to keep us in captivity to a mentality of oppression where truth doesn’t matter

we have to change our situation through prayer and action

we may have to adapt the way we are doing things because old mindsets may be partially responsible to our captivity

I see the wall as representing our faith and values and we need to assess how they have been destroyed in this nation. Like Nehemiah we need to take an honest assessment of where we are, see and acknowledge how broken things are. Nehemiah went with a small group of people. A group of like-minded people.
