For it is written:
"I will destroy
the wisdom of the wise,
and bring to nothing
the understanding
of the prudent."
Where is the wise?
Where is the scribe?
Where is the disputer
of this age?
Has not God made
foolish
the wisdom of this
world?
1 Corinthians 1: 19
-- 20
(Isaiah 29: 14)
Our great
God Jehovah and never makes a statement, or a promise, that he either has not
already fulfilled or will fulfill them the future. Currently, our present culture, with all the technology available
now to even those who are economically poor as this technology at their
fingertips. By means of the
availability and use of the technology people think that they are wise and in
need of nothing else other than what man can provide and has provided. This wisdom has led people to think
autonomously and have a power within themselves so that they have little or no
need for God. We hear things like a
need to find themselves, or to be empowered, everything is for them self as
though they have great understanding.
The empirical facts that are so evident that we cannot eat more of them
because this wisdom, or prudent type of living as people think has led to a
greater lifestyle that is of a homosexual nature. This lifestyle has the approval of those who think they are so
why and so good because they are willing to accept this abnormal behavior. Furthermore, the empirical evidence that is
so abhorrent because it has to do with the killing of a life all for the reason
that is then given to give validity and approval for this delivered and willful
murder: they call this abortion. Here
are two surveys that demonstrate what the wisdom of this world is allowing and
how far from that which is the will of God they have come and are going. It is my desire to give the surveys even
though they long for you to examine and notice of the reasons given in when God
says that he will destroy the wisdom of the wise and those who think that they
are prudent with some sort of understanding.
Those who are wise by the standards of this world are only trying to
live the way they want to live even though it is in opposition to the
commandments of God. One quick overview
that must be stated is that 98% of those who had abortions did so by their own
election.

I hope you
are taking time to look over these surveys; companies considered the best when
it comes to taking surveys did them. We
should carefully look at the reasons given and then see how they are only
wisdom of this world and how they are in opposition to the will of God. This is where I will stop this blog this day
before I move on to other things because this is a current issue that must be
addressed by Christians. With this
knowledge, you now armored to meet the challenge that is not only facing the
world at large but also God's church.
Have all the workers of iniquity
no
knowledge, who will eat up my people
as they eat bread, and do not call upon the LORD?
There they
are in great fear, for God is with
the generation of the righteous.
Psalm 14: 4 -- 5
Christian awake!
