"Dissent. Always in fashion."
False! Absolutely wrong!
And I'm not just saying that in dissent.
Pictured above are "Flaming Swords" and "Lightsabers" representing
two kinds of light: the Light of God and the light of Man.
Flaming sword held by a cherubim guarding Eden after Adam & Eve were kicked out.
Lightsabers (you know-the Star Wars doohickeys) representing Man and his technological savvy, "Man's" own created 'light'.
So, what am I driving towards?
"10 Who is among you that fears the LORD,
That obeys the voice of His servant, That walks in darkness and has no
light? Let him trust in the name of the LORD and rely on his God." Isaiah 50:10.
We trust in God wholly and holy as we walk in this dark world with no light of our own. As it says in
Psalm 119:105 " Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path."
Without His Word we would be as blind as three mice.
What about the Lightsaber crowd?
Those who reject God, His Word and His Light in favor of creating and carrying their own light/torches
...are in a big mess of trouble.
See, God and His Light are Eternal. Will never fail us. Cannot fail.
Man's torches, created by his own hand...stay lit for a moment and then go out.
Back to Isaiah:
"11 Behold, all you who kindle a fire, Who
encircle yourselves with firebrands, Walk in the light of your fire And
among the brands you have set ablaze."
That would be Man rejecting God.
"This you will have from My hand:
You will lie down in torment." Isaiah 50:11
