(Gen 3:19 KJV) In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
The ingeniousness of humanity to overcome the curse of work, knows no bounds. Instead of repenting and fixing the problem once and for all time, we continue in denial and spend our days inventing ways and means to alleviate this burden at the cost of something or someone else….
Every worldly product that each nation, corporation or neighbour produces at a cost and sells to a neighbouring country, corporation or person, comes from one ‘given’ source:
1.The earth’s elements - light, air, water, soil, clay, minerals, metal, oil, gas, etc…
2.The earth’s plants - fruit, seeds, flowers, leaves, wood, roots, herbs, spices, etc…
3.The earth’s animals - people, pets, meat, fur, skin, bone china, silk, etc…
Like the flow of electricity, the world turns by the exploitation of free natural resources and the potential difference across neighbouring inequalities. The haves, exploit the have nots. Let’s face it, if everyone had everything they needed, what market would there be for human products and services?
Since the earth belongs to everyone and no-one in particular, who has the right to capitalise on these naturally ‘free’ resources and how can anyone get away with such exploitation?
The answer is simply - emotio-mental and physical manipulation - “SIN”.
By an act of ‘sin’ did Cain kill Abel and take what was rightfully his brother’s… and the world has changed little in its attitude since this example… humanity by sinful nature, manipulate the rules of the game, we lie, cheat, steal, threaten, bully, hurt, torture and kill in order to justify our righteousness and our ‘right’ to live, just because we can.
We call this ‘intelligence’ but it is really ‘abuse’, so it is only to be expected that this ‘abuse’ would spread like a plague across the whole of the globe in mass exploitation and result in our inevitable demise, without ‘repentance’.
History is littered with the bodies of peaceful peoples whose lives and natural environment have been turned upside down by other greedy and better armed nations or ‘legally’ equipped corporations… “boldly going” and exploiting their paradise. No doubt it would be possible to take the most unwanted and neglected piece of land and turn it into a paradise in a matter of years, that every greedy self seeking person on this planet would covet and try to steal…. do you get the picture?
Rather than ‘work’ to heal ourselves and ‘work’ to heal our land, we would rather steal from our neighbour and steal our neighbours land, either by twisted law or by twisted war. Why do I see some nations dying of starvation and other nations dying from fatness?
(John 8:44 KJV) Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
