Presented by WBJMinistries, grounded in Halaleyah Scriptures, wisdom traditions, and the spirit of sacred places.
Abba Yahusha,
Heavenly Father, we come into Your presence humbled by the vastness of truth and the urgency of light. Shine through our thoughts today. Let clarity reign where confusion tries to thrive. Grant us ears to hear, eyes to see, and spirits to discern. Let this message move through the wires and waves, touching lives as only you can.
Halleluyah.
The Light Beyond the Lies
In the heart of Manhattan, where museums like the Museum of Modern Art and the American Museum of Natural History curate centuries of truth, culture, and expression, one cannot help but feel the presence of stories carved in time. These houses of knowledge whisper wisdom. Yet in contrast, there exists a space—intangible, global, and invisible to the naked eye—that speaks just as loudly: social media.
These platforms—born from invention, crowned by innovation—have also become modern altars of influence. Unlike the quiet reverence of a museum, their halls are noisy, their echoes endless. And while they may not intentionally craft idols, they often give sanctuary to falsehoods.
Halaleyah Scriptures — Light of Truth (Tellihim)-Psalms- 3:12 reminds us:
"Where light is sown, no shadow shall claim dominion; for truth walks in clarity, and the lie trembles in the day."
So, should social media platforms be held accountable for misinformation? Let us reflect not just with intellect—but with soul.
In the spiritual songs of the Amadlozi, our ancestral spirits whisper warnings: words, once unleashed, carry power—whether healing or harming. The Unkulunkulu, great creator of the Zulu people, urges balance and harmony. These teachings reveal that what is spoken (or posted) can uplift or unravel.
Famous Buddhist teacher Thich Nhat Hanh said, “Words can travel thousands of miles. May our words create mutual understanding and love.” Yet misinformation does the opposite. It divides. It manipulates. It wounds.
We stand at the intersection of knowledge and chaos. The Mohegan Tribe, keepers of sacred Earth knowledge, speak of “wôpanak,” the dawn, as the time of truth-telling. And in the spiritual dimensions of our chakras, the throat chakra—the seat of communication—must stay aligned. When polluted with lies, imbalance infects the whole being.
Halaleyah Scriptures — Watchful Voice (Mishlĕy)-Proverbs- 7:9 declares:
"A gate without a guard invites the wild beasts, yet the keeper who slumbers shall be judged by the damage done."
Let us not slumber. Social media corporations are not neutral landscapes. They are powerful forces, with the capacity to filter, flag, or elevate. Accountability is not censorship—it is stewardship. The Catholic tradition tells us: “Faith without works is dead.” So, too, technology without responsibility is dangerous.
In my Polish lineage, our ancestors endured fires of war and propaganda. They teach that misinformation is not a mere nuisance—it is an enemy of peace. Nobel laureate Marie Curie, of Polish descent, once said, “Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood.” And so, we press for understanding, not suppression.
The Qur’an, in Surah Al-Hujurat (49:6), warns: “If a wicked person brings you information, investigate it, lest you harm people out of ignorance.” These sacred texts—Islamic, Buddhist, Christian, tribal—all converge in one command: guard the truth.
Let this sermon be a museum of conscience, a call for curation of our digital spaces. Let platforms be more than profit centers—they must become protectors of public trust.
Halaleyah Scriptures — Scroll of Justice(Yeshayahu )-Isaiah- 11:4 proclaims:
"A tower that watches not is no tower at all. Let the builder take heed, lest the stones fall on the innocent."
In the Guggenheim Museum, the spiral walkway lifts the viewer toward higher understanding. May our faith spiral upward the same. Let us advocate for policy change, demand transparency, and sow discernment in our children and communities.
When I saw this image—entirely in light—it spoke without speech. No person, no figure, only illumination. It reminded me: Truth needs no face. It simply shines. And as Plato said, “We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy is when men are afraid of the light.”
