Atheists, skeptics, philosophers, and agnostics often call for proof when debating the tenets and plausibility of Christianity. Of course, proof in an empirical context other than well researched, documented historical accounts and archeological evidence is difficult to provide. However, for the Christian, discernment and guidance from the Holy Spirit is the difference maker. For me, it takes a greater ‘leap of faith’ to believe in weak Big Bang Theories and “full of holes” Darwinian Evolution than it does to believe in Christianity. To each his own.
Let’s look at Proverbs 30. Many verses in Proverbs 30 read like they are describing events of our current culture, society and world.
Proverbs 30: Surely I am more stupid than any man and do not have the understanding of a man. I neither learned wisdom nor have knowledge of the Holy One. Who has ascended into heaven or descended? Who has gathered the wind in His fists? Who has bound the waters in a garment?
Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is His name, and what is His Son’s name? If you know? Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him. Do not add to His words, lest he rebuke you, and you be found a liar.
Two things I request of you ( Deprive me not before I die ) : Remove falsehood and lies far from me. Give me neither poverty nor riches. ( Middle class is ideal?) Feed me with the food allotted to me; Lest I be full and deny You, And say, ” Who is the Lord?” Or Lest I be poor and steal, and profane the name of my God. (Skip to verse 11.)
Now, starting with Proverbs 30:11, let’s compare it with our current culture, mostly wicked lying media, delusional, deranged, starved for power politicians, lukewarm churches, the rampant spirit of lawlessness run amok, over empowered technocrats and this generation in general: VERSE :11- There is a generation that curses its father, and does not bless its mother. There is a generation that is pure in its own eyes ( the woke generation? The Biden administration?) and their eyelids are lifted up. There is a generation whose teeth are like swords and whose fangs are like knives to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men. ( Barack Obama, Joe Biden, John Kerry, Kamala Harris, The Clintons, Bill Gates, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, The WHO, CDC, Klaus Schwab, Xi Jinping and the little Napolean Technocrat Nazi, Anthony Fauci, to name a few.)
The leech has two daughters– Give and Give! There are three things that are never satisfied, Four never say “Enough!” The grave, The barren womb, The earth that is not satisfied with water — And the fire never says “Enough!” The eye that mocks his father, and scorns obedience to his mother. The ravens of the valley will pick it out and the young eagles will eat it.
There are three things which are too wonderful for me, Yes, four that I do not understand: The way of an eagle in the air, the way of a serpent on a rock, the way of a ship in the midst of the sea, and the way of a man with a virgin. This is the way of an adulterous woman: She eats and wipes her mouth, and says “I have done no wickedness.”
For three things the earth is perturbed, for four it cannot bear up: for a servant when he reigns, a fool when he is filled with food, a hateful woman when she is married, and a maidservant who succeeds her mistress. There are four things which are little on the Earth, but they are exceedingly wise : The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their food in the summer. The rock badgers are a feeble folk, yet they make their homes in the crags; the locusts have no king, yet they all advance in ranks; the spider skillfully grasps with its hands, and it is in king‘s palaces. There are three things which are majestic in pace, Yes four which are stately in walk: A lion which is mighty among beasts and does not turn away from any; a greyhound, a male goat also, and a king whose troops are with him. If you have been foolish in exalting yourself, or if you have devised evil, put your hand on your mouth. For as the churning of milk produces butter, and wringing of the nose produces blood, so the forcing of wrath produces strife.
WOW, Proverbs 30, is one of the most beautiful pieces of Literature I have ever read. I am proud to offer my comments. Take time to read this post many times. With Proverbs 30 as my base for this post, all accompanying words written entirely by Frankie The Earthman. For “as close as one can get to proof that there is a ONE TRUE GOD,” study THE MESSIANIC PROPHECIES, especially the top 40.
