This is our second reflection on 'the world', so make sure you go back and listen to the previous episode before diving into this final piece.

The world, according to the Bible, is the systemised, normalisation of deception and falsehood that has seen generations believe the lies of the devil.  This has created cultures of thinking and practices that affirm these lies into daily thinking.

But in the midst of this world system stands Jesus - the way, the truth and the life.
