This is an inherited feature of our human life ... the strong desire to have omnivision and thus to be omniscient. .... Satan Qued us to our weakness in his words to Eve "Gen. 3: 5 - For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened , and ye shall be as gods, knowing (Yada) good and evil." (Having the insatiable desire to determine what is right or wrong) . This reveals HOW we more than always miss the mark ...SIN. Since I can't see everything at once and know everything at once than I will selfishly grab on to my conception of "MY SELF" and rely on IT to guide me through this life ...Que Sera Sera(Whatever will be will be). THIS IS BASIC IDOLATRY 101.
This is why the scriptures (by the way ... GOD's WORD ...the Bible -- just in case you have an issue with this, I DON'T) describe us all this way ... Romans 3:10-18,23
10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
11 There is none that understandeth , there is none that seeketh after God.
12 They are all gone out of the way , they are together become unprofitable ; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
13 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit ; the poison of asps is under their lips:
14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
15 Their feet are swift to shed blood:
16 Destruction and misery are in their ways:
17 And the way of peace have they not known:
18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
23 For all have sinned , and come short of the glory of God;
God sees, knows and reveals the truth about us ......What we do with His perspective determines not only the way we live but also the way we see others...and ultimately determines our final destination ...not by what we do but whom we have believed ...our "my self" or God, Himself.
Sorry if where He sits, threatens you ... but He did love us first. What do you lose in trusting Him?
Matthew 16:25 - For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
