God
Is Right
Only God is right. A man
can only be right to the extent that he agrees with God. You
might say
that you can be right regarding something you can grasp with your
senses. God was right about these before you ever comprehended
them. Even then, some do not grasp some concrete truth due to
lack
of wisdom. So many fail ultimately because their thoughts do not
acknowlege God or His way.
So many things in faith require confession. The Greek here is homologeo, literally
same-say, that is to say the same. This not
the full extent of the meaning of this word, but is an important part
of it. To get saved, Christians agree with God concerning their
sin and His redemptive work through His Son, Jesus. Prayers to
God must agree with His will in order to be answered. I am not
bypassing faith by saying these things, only faith must begin with such
things to even have a foundation. No clergy is right just because
his has a position. His rightness, ability to communicated God's
mind, and his anointing depend on agreeing with God in these ways and
others.
On agreement with God hinge the success or failure of many things in
life. Politicians fail repeatly to solve the basic problems of
society because the inquity they seek to advance with one hand prevents
them from exercising the wisdom of God with the other. Take away
from the middle and working classes and give to poor and let the
benefactors go free. The families of the poor are then destroyed
by dependency, and those deprived are angry at the theft. Because
they are so wise (I am being sarcastic here.) only to support the
children, would-be husbands are sent to the gutter, and they pimp those
who
would be their wives for the children who are keyed to their financial
support. Expensive housing projects are torn down because their
builders did not consider that overcrowding exacerbates the very
problems that these dwellings were meant to solve. Why did they
fail in these things? Because they thought killing babies, easy
divorce, promoting homosexuality, and other such to be the means to
political
expediency. Even now, they are still trying to fix existing
political failures with others!
The Church is not immune either. In many ways, the devil has sought to have professing
Christians replace His Word and Wisdom with their own rationalizations
by some means. Bible criticism is the greatest evil that has ever
come in to the church. Someone forgot that it is written, for
whatsoever is not of faith is sin. (Rom 14:23b) If you
think this half
of a verse is out of context, you missed the whole point! If you
have not yet read the Bible as if every word is true, search the
scriptures now! It is that important!
Neither will religion give an answer in these things. Men are
religious because they were
created to have a relationship with God. It is no surprise then
that the uninformed search for God has produced many
religions. This search is commendable. However, there is a
difference between an experimental religion produced by such a search
and the truth God has once and for all revealed in the Bible.
Consider Jesus's unique claim: Jesus
saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh
unto the Father, but by me. (John 14:6)
This country does not need more unwise laws, new corrupt political
parties, or bankrupt ideologies. We need to agree with God and
give His Son and His Wisdom their rightful place.
