I love how God does things, not always nice and clean and when we try to organize too much He sometimes disrupt our intent to pursue His goal. As I continue to grasp the unfolding of destiny in our world the closer I want to come to simplicity. What we see happening is simple , the global occupy movement has been deemed one of the most significant democratic move of our society for some decades, but it lacks the dept of what shook eastern europe in the 80's where the power of the people was realy felt. Though it was on a smaller scale it impacted the whole world and ushered the fall of communism.Ideology of freedom was at stakes, what we see now is very different and change would require a total overall of society's philosophy. The democratic process was not the communism forte and the move that started in Poland found support easily in the western world. But the movement we see now, goes much deeper, it examine this whole ideology of freedom that democracy has bought for our society, freedom to pursue the western dream, self determination of pursuing your dream to comfort and prosperity. The fact that some are better at it then others and the sad realty that some use immoral ways to achieve their dreams, is a sher consequence of man's fall. Though it is not wrong to desire and pursue the dream, once again it prove the saying of John true, the love of money is the ruth of many evil, wether they be intentional or not intended. Our world's philosophy needs an upgrade and that program already exist, but to those who crave powerful reform, miraculous transformation, and those who are in power and have the means of wisdom, it is foolishness. The truth is this the words of Paul in 1Corinthian 1 are just as true as then.
22-25 While Jews clamor for miraculous demonstrations and Greeks go in for philosophical wisdom,we go right on proclaiming Christ,the Crucified. Jews treat this like an anti-miracle—and Greeks pass it off as absurd. But to us who are personally called by God himself—both Jews and Greeks —Christ is God's ultimate miracle and wisdom all wrapped up in one. Human wisdom is so tinny,so impotent,next to the seeming absurdity of God. Human strength can't begin to compete with God's "weakness."
26-31 Take a good look,friends, at who you were when you got called into this life. I don't see many of "the brightest and the best" among you,not many influential,not many from high-society families. Isn't it obvious that God deliberately chose men and women that the culture overlooks and exploits and abuses,chose these "nobodies" to expose the hollow pretensions of the "somebodies"? That makes it quite clear that none of you can get by with blowing your own horn before God. Everything that we have—right thinking and right living,a clean slate and a fresh start—comes from God by way of Jesus Christ. That's why we have the saying,"If you're going to blow a horn,blow a trumpet for God." 1Corinthian 1:22-31
That is truth.
