Dont Be Deceived-Get Real
No one should deceive himself. If anyone among you thinks he is wise in this age, he must become foolish so that he can become wise. For the wisdom of the world is foolishness with God, since it is written: 'He catches the wise in their craftiness,' and again, 'The Lord knows the reasonings of the wise are meaningless'.
So no one should boast in human leaders, for everything is yours- whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or things present or things to come- everything is yours, and you belong to Christ, and Christ belongs to God. 1Cor 3:16-23
Boasting in worldly wisdom is foolishness but boasting in Christ is wise. After all, it is God's opinion that counts.
We are watching America dissolve into a mess at present. They are facing an election where the options are, quite frankly awful. People are killing one another in racial battles, police are slaughtering children and innocent members of the public because they do know how to calm down a situation, they are reacting in error.
In Australia we are just coming out of a new election where neither major party had a clear majority and so deals are having to be made with the minor parties (we are more complicated that the USA). England dissolved the week before and are leaving the European Union. there were sackings in their parliament and know they are set to have their second female Prime Minister, ever.
Do we trust leaders-no! But do we trust God? That is the burning question. We must trust God or we are surely in a big mess. He has given us everything, we just need to believe it and receive it, in faith.
