For the director of music. Of David.
1 The fool says in his heart, 2 The Lord looks down from heaven 3 “All have turned away, all have become corrupt; 4 Do all these evildoers know nothing? |
Psalms not only make good poetry and good songs – they also make good ballet. This Psalm is another lament, a sorrowful song.
Psalm 14 by Sons of Korah & David’s Heartbeat In Psalm 1 we contrasted the god-less and the righteous man. Here, the godless is called a fool and the righteous man is called wise. Everyone has been given sufficient evidence that God exists. The 2 main ways God reveals Himself are His creation and His revelation through scripture. Romans 1:18 The wrath of God; is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made,so that people are without excuse. 21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools. With the advent of darwinism, man had finally hit on some “evidence” that gave him a “genuine” reason to ditch the God he’d always wanted to ditch. He no longer needed to stick to those pesky commandments about lying and adultery. And as long as you don’t look to closely or think too deeply, and keep telling yourself, well the evolutionist scientist believe it so it must be true. It is a bit like the Emperors new clothes where the dodgy tailor’s told everyone that only wise people could see the new clothes so everyone, wanting to be wise, went along with it – even though no one could see a thing. What happens when an atheist Professor refers to the evolution worldview as an ““heroic triumph of ideological theory over common sense.”? He is branded a heretic or called crazy! The idea of darwinian evolution has to be clung to for dear life, it cannot be challenged – because if anyone points out that the king is in his altogether – there is only one alternative. To seek the truth and find God. Haley’s comet happens once every 75 years – yet many people over 30 will have seen it for themselves, others will have seen videos or photographs. For evolution – we have artists impressions: When challenged for an example of observable evolution, P Z Meyers could only think of the cave dwelling stickleback fish who over time, lost their ability to see. Still a stickleback. And no new information was gained, just a loss of information. |
