When Compassion Turns Carnivorous: How Modern Culture Weaponized the Human Instinct to Care

Modern society has turned humanity’s most sacred virtue—compassion—into a tool of control.
In this episode of The Discernment Drop, Pastor John L. Widdifield exposes how empathy detached from truth becomes tyranny disguised as love.

From activism to pandemic moralism, from emotional politics to church softness, this lesson traces the spiritual and philosophical roots of our age’s “compassion cult”—where feeling good replaced doing good, and safety replaced sanctity.

But this isn’t a condemnation; it’s a call to restoration.
This message explores how Christ redeems both men and women from cultural formation that twists the heart, and how the Cross reunites mercy with truth.

Neither gender is the enemy—fear and ideology are.
Join us for a darkly prophetic, biblically grounded, and ultimately hopeful episode.
