DO NOT CONDEMN THE ELITE
Do not condemn the elite
By Robbin Koefoed Jakobsen
In the Lord’s hand the king’s heart is a stream of water that he channels toward all who please him. - Proverbs 21:1 (NIV)
And he made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place, - Acts 17:26 (NIV)
Cambridge dictionary define the word condemn the following way "to criticize something or someone strongly, usually for moral reasons"
The condemnation mentioned in this article are for moral reasons and is the final stage of judgment
Now
Truth seekers have condemned, in their eyes, a evil satanic elite for many of the wrongs on this planet. However the elite should not be condemned for any of their, from many perspectives, outward appearing evil deeds surrounding the control of the world.
Yes some people can be devoted to evil but you do not know if it is god who behind the scene manufactures wrongs, with good intentions, in order to establish basis for effective personal development.
You can be sure of that everything happens for a good reason. Incidents such as war and torture should be treated as learning laboratories for personal growth which is what god intended them to be.
Do you really think the torture in prison camps of North Korea exist because the will of god was overwritten by Kim Jong-un? That said, god would never abolish the free will of anyone but god also has a free will of his own in which he can use to intervene in any earthly event.
You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives. - Genesis 50:20 (NIV)
I form light and create darkness; I make well-being and create calamity; I am the Lord, who does all these things. - Isaiah 45:7 (NIV)
Whatever the Lord pleases, he does, in heaven and on earth, in the seas and all deeps. - Psalm 135:6 (NIV)
The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from the Lord. - Proverbs 16:33 (NIV)
Is it not from the mouth of the Most High that both calamities and good things come? - Lamentations 3:38 (NIV)
Further on the topic of condemnation.
Human beings have free will but it will always lead to goodness since it is not rational to choose evil.
The greek philosopher Socrates believed that no one does evil knowingly.
Now
You can’t be sure that the powers that be’s deeper spiritual understanding haven’t been removed.
Exodus 9:12 is an example how god hardened the heart of the Pharaoh from listening to the truth in order to fulfill his divine plan.
"But the Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart and he would not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the Lord had said to Moses." - Exodus 9:12 (NIV)
John 12:40 is an example in broad strokes how god hardens peoples hearts so they could not understand.
“He has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts, so they can neither see with their eyes, nor understand with their hearts, nor turn—and I would heal them.” - John 12:40 (NIV)
Bottom line: do not condemn an elite for the appearing faults of this world. They could have their understanding removed acting out of ignorance. People can be devoted to evil all they want but as much as they might try they never become evil. i.e. they are ignorant.
We should not condemn their actions but forgive.
As Jesus is attributed saying in Luke 23:34 “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.”
Now
There exist a broader lesson to be learned from this. Do not go around condemning others, look inwards, forgive and nurture a positive attitude in life.
The trick is to always look at the positive sides of any event and every person you encounter not dwelling with the negative. Not to be confused with being Pollyanna. When you become capable of doing this your life will transform into next level.
“Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.” - Philippians 4:8 (NIV)
