"Me Against The World" [Sea 4 / Ep 8]
from Deeper In The Word · host Reverend Adrian L Robinson II
Besides being known as a famous Tupac album, this phrase “Me Against the World” has come to denote how someone feels when they feel like their back is against the wall and they have no one to help them and no one who understands them and their struggle….and therefore that they’re all on their own when it comes to dealing WITH that struggle (I mean, HONESTLY, that’s what Tupac was talking about IN that song….feeling like the entire world was AGAINST him and that he therefore STOOD ALONE, solely, in opposition). As followers of Christ, we actually need to adopt this same sensibility – that it’s us against the world, it’s the people of God vs. the people of this world, which is Satan’s realm. There has to be a clear line of demarcation between WHO WE ARE and who the rest of the world is such that people can tell the drastic difference between us. And so goes this episode of our podcast, which finds us examining what it means for Believers to stand boldly and confidently in defiance to societal standards. Come fellowship with us as we get our Pac on and learn how to adopt a sensibility that includes a way of thinking, acting and living like we are different than the world, including an exploration of who or what the “world” is exactly; why being “on the fence” as a Believer is breaking the marriage covenant; what ANY of this has to do with gang membership; and what it means to have God as an enemy (which, obviously, is some smoke you DON’T want!)
