In some jungle areas of this world there
is a plant that when eaten will satisfy the appetite, but provide absolutely no
nutrition. It is tasty and filling, but
if you continue to eat it and nothing else, you will starve to death.
One tribe calls it the devil’s plant.
And this is what Isaiah is talking about and common sense would
talk about. Forget God for lesser things
and one day a person ends up with a soul that looks like a basement or an attic
- filled with junk.
This marvelous biblical mentor, Isaiah, is simply laying it on the
line, going for the jugular vein, leaving no doubt…that you should be careful
where you sit down to sup because what you think is a feast may well be a
famine in disguise.
Examples abound, but for want of a better example take a look at
Karl Marx. First he called the state God
and formed a theology.
He fashioned this ideology first as a
Jew, then
as a
Lutheran, and finally as an atheist.
From the Hebrew prophets he extended the belief that a violent
social change was inevitable.
From Christianity he took the concept of
the Day of Judgment.
Then from his atheism he decided that it would be man that would
bring about the Day of Judgment.
And the results of all of this? 800 million people lived in earthly hell for
a long, long while.
Another example.
Time Magazine called it the era of “The
Flapper and the Flask.”
It was the 1920’s in
America and people stopped looking up to God.
Instead they looked up to United States Steel Co. and General
Motors. Wall Street became the God of
all good things. America was a joy train
that led to everywhere. Nothing could
stop it. And then something did. Black Friday, 1929.
Sounds familiar, doesn’t it?
The Psalmist puts it well, “(Man’s) inward thought is that (his)
house shall continue forever, (this) dwelling place to all generations: (he) calls his lands after (his) (own)
name.” (Psalm 49:11)
I like the way a man named Matthew Henry put it, “There is no little
sin because there is no little God to sin against.”
Someone once said, “We judge ourselves by
our
ideals and our neighbors by their actions.”
But ideals are like wheels on a car that is up on blocks. They’re pretty silly and worthless if they
don’t go anywhere.
It’s called decision time, and it continues to happen to each of us
every day. And sometimes we are wise and
sometimes we are foolish and sometimes we are just plain idiotic.
