“To what can I compare this generation? They are like children sitting in the marketplaces and calling out to others:
For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’ The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’ But wisdom is proved right by her deeds.”
I read this passage today and boy is it true of much of our world today as it was 2000 years ago.
These people want people to treat them like God. People cannot stand not getting their own way, even in the slightest, and don't care who they hurt in getting what they want.
They will treat people like dirt and then get offended when the same treatment comes to them (you reap what you sow people!)
They treat God the same way, unless He dances to their tune they are not interested.
I debate people online and no matter what you say, no matter what you prove, they will come up with something to enable them to continue to suppress the knowledge of God in their lives. Just as they did 2000 years ago.
There is only one God, and it certainly isn't any one of us. I know it's not me. I constantly fail, forget things, make mistakes, do things for the wrong motives...and I know we all do!
God will never dance to our tune, in fact it is us that needs to dance to His.
God made us, He has a plan for us and so many of us just want to throw back into His face, we have all affronted Him with her actions.
Yet, despite knowing this, God gave His own Son as a willing sacrifice to save us from the deep pit of mistakes we find ourselves in.
Let's stop putting ourselves above God, let's show respect for others and let's dance to the right tune!
