Christian apologist and author Ravi Zacharias speaks to tens of thousands of young adults in Atlanta’s Philips Arena on Sunday, January 3, 2016. Students in Houston were able to watch Zacharias through livestream for the first time in Passion’s 19 year history.

Christian apologist Ravi Zacharias has warned in an Independence Day reflection that America is suffering from a “deep crisis of the soul,” facing the “death of morality” and sliding into a future with no truth or reason.

“Whatever happened to the American soul? We are truly at the cliff’s precipitous edge and the fall could be long and deadly. Why? We have a deep crisis of the soul that is killing us morally and we have no recourse,” Zacharias wrote in a blog post on his website.

“We are at war but not only with an enemy. We are at war within our own culture, and whether we will ever win over the enemy depends on whether we win this war within our own souls,” he added, noting that the United States is battling not only enemies overseas, but is also battling for its own identity.

The Indian-born, Canadian-American apologist warned of the “death of morality, the death of truth; then we come to the last, the death of reason.”

“We are sliding into the future with evil stalking us but no morality, no truth, and no reason to guide us. America may be flirting with a self-inflicted mortal wound. Or it could well be a killing that is designed by a postmodern ideology masquerading as political correctness,” he continued.

“When liberalism, whose legitimate child is relativism, has played itself out it will be a Pyrrhic victory to find ourselves in the hands of those whose identity is no longer in doubt. And when they are in control, the very means they used to hide their identity will be silenced as well.”
