“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness
for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and
sweet for bitter!"(Is 5:20)
And woe unto them who love this wicked, evil world, for "the WHOLE(not
just a portion) world is under the control of the evil one!"(1John
5:19) Discernment clearly reveals that all nations are of this wicked,
evil world!
"For when for the time you ought to be teachers, you have need that
one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of
GOD; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
For every one that uses milk is unskillful in the word of
righteousness: for he is a babe. But strong meat belongs to them that
are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses
exercised in the DISCERNMENT of that which is good and that which is
evil." (Heb 5:13-14)
Discernment! Now why is discernment needful?
There are those who would testify that discernment is not needful, not
realizing that every choice, every "yes" or "no" they voice requires
such. Others would accuse those who exercise discernment of 'judging'
and/or self-righteousness. Truth is that discernment is choice’s
partner in life, especially for those who desire to "cleave to that
which is good".
As concerning 'good' and 'evil'? Well the 'god of this world', he who
is “the father of the lies” is “d”evil and he has made a game of
such ;-( The "gevid’ game! The good and evil game ;-( A deadly game
and there are many participants, all of whom are losers ;-(
First you begin with two evils, such as there are in physical warfare
among the nations of this world, all of whom serve "the god of this
world". Now when warfare commences between two nations and they begin
to kill each other, most onlookers naturally 'choose' sides. They have
'discerned' that this side, or that side, is the “righteous(good)”
side so, they align themselves with that nation(s).
Now if it were a case of them believing they had chosen for the lesser
'evil', well that would be a problem, yet not as grave a problem as is
caused by what usually happens.
For those who have chosen sides(and i speak not of those who believe
killing and war is a 'good' and necessary thing), the lesser 'evil' in
their own eyes gets their support and sympathy. And as the chains of
"strong delusion" bind them tighter and tighter, the lesser 'evil'
becomes their version of 'good'(gevid) ;-( Such is the way a lie
becomes 'white', shadows become light, lust becomes love, and that
which is of this "wicked world" becomes the desire of their heart ;-(
Sad ;-(
Very sad indeed ;-(
And The Spirit must flee ;-(
WWII was a prime example. One of the nations, declared to be 'good' by
'christian' and other religious systems, perpetrated the greatest act
of terrorism yet known to mankind, as tens of thousands of civilians
were 'nuked' in an instant. That same nation, the u.s. of a., was born
in the bloodshed that was rebellion against authority, and now seeks
to put down any rebellion that is not of their liking. Of course they
call such a rebellion the 'evil' kind. They won't accept The Truth
that all physical rebellion is of the flesh and is 'evil', for they
were born of the blood shed in rebellion. Using force of any kind, or
the use of anything but The Truth, that would provoke a nation of this
"wicked world" to use destructive force, is not 'good'.
