Knowledge Of Good And Evil by loswhite(m): 5:03pm On Mar 31, 2013
Knowledge they say is power, so what then is knowledge? When man was created in the garden of Eden, man was warned not to eat from a particular tree which is the tree of knowledge of good and evil but as usual man will always do the opposite. Lets assume that Adam was a baby, because he behaved exactly how a child will behave in present day. Tell a child don't touch that remote, b4 u will come out from your room your child is already playing with the remote, your response will be to discipline the child just as God did,
Notice the pattern, we are created in the image and likeness of God.
The birth of man's problem is knowledge. The same knowledge that we are celebrating today which itself is neither evil nor good but has a dependent factor which is discernment .
God knows that it will be difficult for man to separate good from evil even with the ability to discern, because the truth is for every good their is an equal evil . That has being proven by science. To review this let us consider Newton's third law of motion which states that When a first body exerts a force F1 on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force F2 = −F1 on the first body. This means that F1 and F2 are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.let us relate it to our present world, for every good invention that we enjoy today their is an equal amount of evil that comes with it.
Leaders have always looked for ways to better the life of their followers, so they acquire knowledge to do that, forgetting that knowledge is like a blessing and a curse to man cause for every good policy your leaders make to better the life's of their followers and equal number of life are destroyed, that can be clearly seen in the American politics of today.
There was a time when knowledge was sacred and it was hidden from the masses. It should be noted that man was created equal. Knowledge is what makes a man superior to another man hence the quest to make knowledge sacred was pursed by leaders of old. There was a time when nobody is expected to know more than a king so the masses are fed with only information that they want them to know, surprisingly many will say those days are long gone 4 getting history tend to repeat itself.
Why would our Savior Jesus Christ say in the last days there will be wolf In sheep clothing
And they shall lead many astray , by now I know Christians will be looking out 4 fake pastors.. lol.
Jesus was talking about leaders in general that includes your general overseer, government and institution leaders.
The establishment of institution such as medical, finance education, and even news agency are being carried out by the elite which we can refer to as the king of our time. This brings us to the biggest question of the day which is what if the information we are fed with right from when we were born are just what some group wants us to know as the masses. Valuable information such as Luis Pasteur germs theory Nicolas Tesla findings on electricity , just to mention but a few.
I cannot also dispute the fact that there are element of truth from the information we get but how can we rely on a constructed information which has been tailored for centuries and used it as our guide in complex world where we are all pun that can be expendable to the SYSTEM at any point in time.
This piece represent my own opinion so i await constructive criticism so i can also learn from the views of other members of this forum.
