Hi John and Doves,
Most westerners value education as an intrinsic tool for life skills. A sensible mind-set. A great Bible passage urges us to armour ourselves with knowledge. But there are so many stories of so-called 'uneducated' people who are Bible believing Christians. These are the blessed folk who are spiritually astute. I put it to all that you can educate the individual to the highest university standards but, if they haven't got the spirit of God, they remain ignorant. Catastrophically uneducated. Empty vessels.
Saying that - we all witness the crass ignorance of people who espouse pro-Palestinian views yet have ZERO idea where Palestine is and the history behind the current mess. As a former business owner, I would NOT employ these people. Neither will Almighty God invite them into His sacred family. The ignorance is off the charts. Like cave people, they espouse a belief or doctrine, without even knowing what they are talking about - or even where they are talking about. The media gives these idiots the airtime. As does YT and social media in general. It has made us feel that our world has been overtaken by neanderthal-like idiots. This is far from the truth. Evil is putting on a show. And the 'show' is terrible. The actors are all terrible as is the script.
Which is why scripture urges us not to have a spirit of fear. Not only is Almighty God in full control - always, but He is urging us to be sensible and level-headed. The absolute crud that is aired on social media is just that - crud. It's not the real world. As to the rent-a-crowd yobs who are paid to take part in pro-Palestine protests - they are brainless. Spiritually and mentally. They may be many - but are incapable of organising a drunken party in a brewery. They are THAT stupid. The real evil is not hiding anymore. The real evil is showing it's hand. Spirit filled Christians can see this a mile away.
Fear not, Doves. Almighty God is in full control.
