Reading through "Uncle Tom's Cabin" one can wonder if we have anything like this going on in our world today. It scares me to think we do, but I also think it's a smart thing to consider. What are misconceptions that we have about the Bible. It makes me cringe when the Bible is quoted by the white characters in the novel, because most of them think they're in the right. Slavery is in no way right. I can't see anything right about it.
What is something that I do, and might think it's right, but it really is not? I think that's a valid question to ask. Some red-flags I see in our world today are how huge Church buildings are being made and some of them are way over the top in my eyes. In my personal life though, I know that I need a heart check when it comes to spending my money. Most of my money is spent on myself and so the fact that I'm judging the Church isn't right either.
What I'm trying to say is that each one of us should look at our lives personally, and at our world as a whole and try to decipher the misconceptions going on. Positive changes can be made if we work together, and ignoring the changes needed won't get us anywhere.
