 The Food For Thought – It’s A Family Affair: 

A Call to Godly Manhood in an Age of Scandal

In light of the disturbing allegations against Sean “Diddy” Combs and other high-profile men, it’s critical to reflect on what it means to live a Godly life, especially as men in positions of influence. These allegations are reminders of what happens when power and influence are wielded without integrity. While these revelations are deeply troubling, they also serve as a wake-up call—not only to those in the spotlight, but to all men.
It is time for a renewed pursuit of godliness. Not the appearance of righteousness, but true transformation of the heart, mind, and actions. Scripture provides direct, convicting guidance.

1. Matthew 26:21 – “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray me.”
This verse is Jesus speaking at the Last Supper, but it reminds us of a core truth: betrayal can come from within. Men who have been given power and influence often betray not just others, but themselves and their calling. When a man turns from righteousness for lust, control, or pride, he betrays the very image of God he was made to reflect. The Diddy allegations are a stark reminder that betrayal doesn’t come suddenly—it’s the fruit of a life lived without accountability. The truth is, anyone—no matter how close they may seem to truth or godliness—can fall into deep sin if they aren't vigilant. The betrayal often begins quietly, in hidden choices and unchecked appetites. That’s why the call to holiness must begin in the private places long before it shows up in the public ones.

2. Matthew 18:8-9 – “If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away… better to enter life maimed or crippled than to have two hands or two feet and be thrown into eternal fire.”
Jesus speaks here with radical clarity. If there is anything in our lives—habits, people, power, pride—that leads us into sin, we must cut it off. Men today need to confront the sources of sin, no matter how “normal” or accepted they may seem. Toxic masculinity, unchecked lust, and abuse of power must be identified and removed with urgency. It’s not enough to attend church or speak of faith—Jesus calls for transformation and radical obedience.

3. 1 Corinthians 15:34 – “Come back to your senses as you ought, and stop sinning; for there are some who are ignorant of God—I say this to your shame.”
This verse is a wake-up call. Paul doesn’t sugarcoat it: stop sinning. Get real. Be sober-minded. The world is watching, and the actions of men, especially those who claim to believe in God or hold moral authority, must reflect holiness. Complacency is not just dangerous—it’s shameful. Men must wake up and stop normalizing ungodly behavior behind fame, wealth, or status. The scandals in our headlines today are often the result of lives lived far from this principle.
Too many men have become desensitized to sin, rationalizing destructive behavior because culture tells them it's acceptable. But the Word of God calls us to a higher standard. Ignorance is no longer an excuse. Now is the time for conviction. Now is the time for change.

Final thought: The world doesn’t just need successful men. It needs Godly men. Men who fear God more than they chase fame. Who protect rather than exploit. Who lead with integrity, even when no one is watching. The allegations surfacing now are not just a legal matter—they are a spiritual crisis. And the only solution is repentance, accountability, and a return to God’s standard of manhood.

Mark 8:36-37 KJV
[36] For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? [37] Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
