1 Corinthians 1:20 ;25-27
"Where is the one who is wise? "WHERE IS THE SCRIBE?" Where is the debater of this age? Has not GOD made foolish the wisdom of the world?"
"But GOD chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; GOD chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; GOD chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, so that no human being might boast in the presence of GOD.
Mankind is bound and determined to show GOD how intelligent he has become. We have put a man on the moon. We have performed surgeries that were only dreamed of 15 years ago. We have automobiles that will almost drive themselves. We can fly around the earth in less than a day. The intelligence of man continues to escalate rapidly! Or does it??
But cancer runs abound at astounding rates. Blood pressure problems can't be solved in some people. The vast intelligence has yet to find a cure for obesity. We are wealthier, yet more out of shape than ever before! Depression is out of control and nobody seems to understand why? We are supposedly smarter than ever, but our wisdom is possibly at record lows!
We think we know better than GOD so we murder children in the womb to avoid taking responsibility for them when they might have been born. Our court system has determined that GOD must have made a mistake when HE defined marriage and they have offered their own definition. A man thinks he should have been born a woman and so he "changes" his lifestyle to suit his desires! Did you ever think that GOD has let some of us do things our own way to display our ineptness?
"WHERE IS THE SCRIBE"? Where is the leader who is wise enough to lead as GOD's Word directs? President George Washington reportedly said "It is impossible to rightly govern the world without GOD and the Bible." But today we try to limit GOD to Sunday mornings for a one hour "pit stop" and then back to our secular world and its distractions. Maybe we think we are smart enough to figure out what we need to get by? We are NOT GOD, and we had better realize that before HE demonstrates just WHO HE is and "WHERE IS THE SCRIBE"???
