Today’s Topic: Gospel Advance 2018: Abuses in “Wisdom descended not from above” according to the scriptures: Freedom from Darkness due to Defiance of the Infallible Word, and from the belief as Aristotle that “… no divine sanction in necessary” in the pursuit for seeking happiness….!!!

The Inward Jew Nation of God Message:

There is a divine sanction over man’s actions

Beloved, as the saints who have gone before us, we, the Inward Jew Nation of God with deep roots in Guyana, South America, believe the “wisdom that is from above” according to the Word, and  11 Corinthians 5:10 which says:

 “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ that everyone may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.” [11 Corinthians 5:10]

Thus, according to the infallible Word there is a divine sanction over man’s actions.

But, in opposition to the Infallible Word, by following his earthly wisdom the natural man Aristotle believed:

“That man cannot be happy unless he is good and that, since man must seek for happiness, no divine sanction is necessary.” [The Western Heritage, 1961, Holt, Rinehart and Winston, Inc. pg.50] “Yo hear lie?” Lord have mercy!!!

Beloved, man born of a woman is a natural man, who bears the image as his paternal parent Adam, [1 Corinthians 15: 49] who God created a living soul. As it is written in the scriptures, “And Yahweh formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostril the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” [Genesis 2:7] One fact that cannot be denied though is, that, in as much as man is the highest in the animal kingdom, the behavioral traits of some throughout the ages were, and still are those of the lower animals to this date, even worse.

The natural man and “wisdom descended not from above”

Beloved, the natural man is driven by his desires of the flesh, [Galatians 5:17-24] which have no limits, you see. For example, some manifestations of the flesh are, say, greedy lust; killing a fellow man; or stealing a fowl, or a goat, or a sheep and making a bad mango curry with its meat; or going to court and lie for a friend, or for someone for a raise (money) because he/she wants to win the case. Also like coveting anything other thing that belongs to someone else, say: money, somebody’s wife, or property: practicing witchcraft; hatred; jealousies; wrath; making strife; drunkenness; gossiping, and the exploitation of man by man, just to mention a few. These human traits and more fall in the classification ” Wisdom descended not from above.”

“Wisdom is defined as experience and knowledge together with the power of applying them. Wisdom is also making use of one’s common sense. [Oxford Popular English Dictionary]

Consider, “Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? The scripture says, let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness and wisdom. But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.” [James 3: 13-14]

The following is a scriptural description of the “wisdom descended not from above” (earthly)

Bitter envying and strife in your hearts …, “This wisdom descendeth not from above,” but is earthly, sensual, devilish. For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. [James 3: 16]

And in contrast to wisdom descended not from above, “… The wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to entreat, full of mercy, and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. [James 3: 17]

May God bless us with eyes of discernment to identify the main root cause/s of confusion, namely, envying and strife, in every given situation, and to apply wisdom that is from above to stop it: and, thus,  bring clarity and peace. “And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.” [James 3:13-18]

The Spirit of envy and strife at work at its best

Beloved, Jesus the Christ made it abundantly clear to the Pharisees the vast distinction between “wisdom descended not from above”: and the “wisdom that was from above;” and went on to apply His kingdom principles which healed the man with the withered hand in spite of the Pharisees’ earthly man-made rules and regulations concerning the keeping of the Sabbath. The following was Jesus’s approach which successfully stopped the confusion the strife-making Pharisees were trying to create.

The Pharisees accused Jesus’ disciples of breaking the law on a Sabbath day when they plucked corn and ate them because they were hungry. And they (the Pharisees) approached Jesus and said to Him, “Behold, thy disciples do that which is not lawful on the Sabbath day.” [Matthew 12:2]

How Jesus defended His disciples’ Action

And, in His defense, Jesus questioned their knowledge of the scriptures to show justifiable reasons for His disciples’ actions when He enquire of them:

• If they did not read about David how he entered the House of God on the Sabbath day with his men and ate the showbread which only the priests were permitted to eat, and
• If they did not read in the law how that on the Sabbath days the priest in the temple profane the Sabbath, and were blameless.

Subsequently, Jesus made it clear to the hypocritical Pharisees, that He was greater than the Temple by contrast. And that was followed by a further contrast, namely, “the wisdom that is from above” and “the wisdom descended not from above” (earthly). You see, the term “mercy” is a quality of Yahweh the Most High, and it means compassion. So “mercy” is a word that was/is foreign to the Earthlings (the natural man) since it is not within his/her psychic. But, the condition for receiving mercy, however,  is first to show mercy to our fellow men, even to animals. As it is written,

“Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.” [Matthew 5:7]

Instead of animal sacrifice: Extended Mercy was prioritized by Christ

But, animal sacrifice, however, was a normal everyday practice of the Pharisees and others. So while the Pharisees prioritized animal sacrifice, on one hand: they were withered up, or dried up in their practice of showing mercy towards men, on the other hand.

Beloved, and Jesus the Christ the last Adam, who is the Lord from heaven above, [1 Corinthians 15: 47] lived a practical lifestyle according to the principles of His Father’s Kingdom which is from above, or heavenly.  And “Mercy” was demonstrated as part of His everyday lifestyle, that the so called learned religious leaders and hypocrites of his day neither understood completely, nor accepted that “Mercy,” in preference of Sacrifice, was Jesus’ choice to heal the man with the withered hand on the Sabbath day. [Matthew 12: 9-13]

My Thoughts/ Inward Jew Thinking

The Pharisees and other religious leaders who walked after the flesh were ignorant of the fact that Jesus the Christ, who came from above, was in the realm of the highest spiritual consciousness. As a result, they felt that He had a problem with doctrine, because His messages were new and strange to them. Hence the rejection, and they set out in their hearts to make strife wherever, whenever and however possible, even to kill Jesus the Christ the Son of the Living God. [John 10:24-40]

And in the case of the man with the withered hand, Jesus evaluated the arrogance and the ignorance of the Pharisees, and said to them that He was One in their presence, who was greater than the physical sophisticated Temple. And in pitying their ignorance Jesus the Christ said to the Pharisees, “But if you had known what this meant, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless. For the Son of man is Lord even of the Sabbath.” [Matthew 12:7-8]

Blessings for being Merciful

Beloved, being merciful to our fellow men is a big blessing all by itself, and great benefits are in store for those who are kind to others. For example:

• He that considereth the poor is blessed
• The Lord will deliver him in time of trouble
• The Lord will preserve him, and keep him alive
• He shall be blessed upon the earth
• The Lord will not deliver him unto the will of his enemies
• The lord will strengthen him upon the bed of sickness
• The Lord will restore him from his sickness
• He/she will call upon the Lord to be merciful and to heal their soul, and
• He/she will acknowledge their sin against Him. [Psalm 41:1-4]

 

“Wisdom descended not from above” at work in the form of abuse

In his conversation with Yahweh the psalmist identified each abuse, for example, he said:

“Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall ye die, and his name perish?” “And if he comes to see me, he speaketh vanity”: “his heart gathereth iniquity to itself, when he goeth abroad, he telleth it.” “All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt.” “An evil disease, say they, cleaveth fast unto him; and now that he lieth he shall rise up no more.”

“Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat from my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.” [Remember Brutus in Julius Caesar?]

The psalmist expressed His reassurance:

But this I know that thou favorest me, because mine enemy doth not triumph over me.” [Psalm 41:5-11]

The psalmist personal acknowledgement

“And as for me, thou upholdest me in thy integrity, and sittest me before thy face for ever. Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.” [Psalm 41:12-13]  As the Psalmist let testify of Yahweh’s goodness towards us.

It is noteworthy that the Psalmist had a conversation with Yahweh. And in His awesome presence he poured out his heart to Yahweh and emptied himself of all the abuses and hurts that he was suffering at the hands of his familiar friend and enemies. And some common abuses that he mentioned in Psalm 41 are:

Man’s evil and unruly tongue lashing in “wisdom descended not from above”, which is first devilish…

“Enemies speak evil of me;” “When shall he die, and his name perish;” “He speaketh vanity;” “His heart gathereth iniquity to itself;” “All that hate me whisper together against me;” “They devise my hurt;” They falsely diagnosed his sickness, and predicted that he shall rise up no more [Psalm 41: 8]

This is your Moment of Moments that would challenge you heart and your life

Beloved, as the psalmist, are you familiar with the above mentioned abuses and hurts? It could be that every one of us have been experiencing some of these abuses and even worse than these, God knows. Whatever your abuses are, in spite of how badly you are hurt, do not sit there and cry, and/or grieve. Take action now, and for your own good, go before God, your heavenly Father, and have a conversation with Him. And as the Psalmist, tell Him exactly what you are going through unto this moment.

After you have finished, confess your sins to Yahweh your Creator, and lay all your burdens at the feet of Christ Jesus the Son of the living God. Tell Yahweh that you are sorry for all the wrongs you have done to your fellow men, and to yourself, if that is what you want to do. Next, repent of your sins and invite Christ into your life, by faith.

Beloved, if you have from the heart repented and invited Christ into your life: know that you have found favor with Yahweh the Highest, through Christ Jesus our Lord and Savior. Further, know that you are covered with and delivered by the precious blood of Christ: and by the power of the Holy Spirit you have defeated the enemy today, by faith in in Jesus’ name.

And if you know that Yahweh has favored you, because your enemy did not triumph over you today, give Yahweh the highest praise, even as I rejoice with you. Hallilujaaaaaaah!!!

May Yahweh richly bless you in your new walk and new outlook to life in 2018, and beyond. Shalom.
