WHERE EVIL GROWS
For the last two weeks, I’ve been exploring the source of evil. Whether we believe in it or not, we are all affected by the demoness (or agents) of corruption. The Bible has an insight you may have missed. “The reason the son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work. (I John 3: 8) Certainly sounds like a war going on!
We have been warned to avoid “the world” which is how the scriptures express Evil at work around us. Let’s call it “the System.” The System is the work Evil performs around us every day of the week, 7-24. So far, we’ve learned The System principally operates through sex, money, and power. (I John 2:16) The inordinate desire for lust and greed have been explored. Let’s look at the craving for power. The relentless quest for ascendency and position makes one vulnerable to the control of The System that will eventually destroy us. The desire to be all powerful not only corrupts, but kills. Here’s an example.
Few people in history have the overwhelming desire for power that was true of Heinrich Himler, the head of the dreaded Nazi Gestapo. On May 20, 1945, British soldiers arrested a German soldier on the Berweverde bridge that is about twenty-five miles from the town of Luneberg. The man looked like a typical Wehrmacht German soldier. Now dressed in civilian attire, his papers said his name was Hitzinger. He had a bandage around his head that covered his right eye. Something didn’t fit. The man was arrested and taken to a military police station.
For three days, the soldiers interrogated Hitzinger. Finally, the pressure became too great and he confessed. “My name is Heinrich Himler,” the creator of the dreaded Gestapo.
The Brits didn’t believe him and made the man strip. Covering him with a blanket, they began a scrupulous search of is body. When they started to search his mouth, Himmler bit down on a cyanide capsula concealed in a tooth and died instantly.
Three days later, Himmler was buried in an ignorable pit of dirt in the forest where his grave is lost. The man who claimed to be the reincarnation of Emperor Henry I disappeared in the dust. A product of The System.
The point? We are meant to be humble servants of the Most High. That takes us out of The System and places us in the Kingdom of God that endures forever. Here’s the answer we need in dealing with The System. “If my people who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” (II Chronicles 7:14) That’s where we must stand in a time like today.
