Right Side of History

A catch phrase of the day seems to be "being on the right side of history".  Politicians tell you that if you don't support gay marriage you will find yourself on the wrong side of history.  It sounds right but it also sounds very arrogant.  The speakers obviously has decided what is the right side of history and if you don't side with that side you are wrong.
However, as Christian we can be on the right side of history.  Jesus came and with Him came the great reversal.  He sided with the poor, the weak, the vulnerable, not because they were weak or poor or vulnerable but because those people knew that their salvation was outside themselves and could only be found in the Lord Jesus.
So to be on the right side of history will not be following some political or sociological agenda but siding yourself with the Creator of the universe.  It is the only way to be on the right side of history.
