Beware Of Misinformation, And Conspiracies. Part [8] 10/30/2024 (Morning thought)

1st Corinthians 3:20 And again, The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.

Question: Is it true that there can be persons, living in our day, who have manifested great intelligence, and yet, have said, and done things that fall short of their intelligence quotient, IQ? In other words, is it possible for you to retain your intelligence, and yet be can found doing and saying stupid things? Remember, that most of what we are now seeing and hearing, as pertains to misinformation is coming from persons who are highly intelligent, and who, for all intents and purposes are well respected.

Can it be that the two phrases are being juxtaposed in persons, and they have not a clue what is taking place in their minds? The scripture seems to suggest that a person with extraordinary intelligence might not necessarily always say, and do things that are wise. The desire for the highest place is what had driven the covetousness thus indulged, and in every being that is motivated by a desire for praise, there will be seen a disposition to use others as a stepping stone to climb to a higher round, regardless of the cost.

In trying to usurp the position of the Most High God many of his followers would lose their royal estate, and thus be banished into eternal night. But, be that as it may, in lucifer’s mind, the reward will be worth the risk, and if in the process fellow angels become doomed to destruction, then so be it.

Isaiah 14:13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north. 14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the Most-High.

The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!

Beware Of Misinformation, And Conspiracies. Part [7] 10/30/2024 (Evening thought)

Job 1:8 And the Lord said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that fears God, and eschews evil? 9 Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, Doth Job fear God for naught? 10 Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.

Every good thing which God did, was misinterpreted into character assassination of The Most-High, and finally his conspiracies were directed at the judiciary when he erroneously declared that the laws of God were too restrictive. The following therefore are scriptural references to the origins of all misinformation, and all conspiracy theories, and as we study closely, we will see clearly why we are in our own current predicament. And as we study, let us be honest with ourselves, and ask: is this happening in the here and now.

Ezekiel 28:12 Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, thus saith the Lord God; you seal up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. 17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.

The two highlighted phrases in the previous passage must not be overlooked at all, for they reveal a very bizarre truth pertaining to the use of intelligence in persons or beings who may deliberately choose to distort truth. Here are the two phrases juxtaposed to each other: Full of wisdom/ corrupted thy wisdom. Look at the two phrases very closely, for they raise the very grim prospect that a mortal man who may follow satan’s lead can become both intelligent and unwise at the same time.

1st Corinthians 3:18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seems to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
