PSALM FIFTY-THREE, verse 1

Psalm 53:1 NIV
The fool says in his heart, "there is no God"
They are corrupt , and their ways are vile;
there is no one who does good.

So are we going to live our lives animated by the love
and wisdom of the true God ?
Or or are we going to make our lives a rat race
animated by self interest ?
Without God, financial self interest becomes greed.
Without God, social self interest becomes at least
                      competitive one-up-man-ship
Without God, morality has little meaning in practice.
Robbing people becomes a virtue not a sin..

The wrong attitude of the "fools"
has resulted in their wrong actions
towards their fellow human beings.

Jeremiah had the same problem (Jer 5:1)
to find even one person
"who deals honestly and seeks truth"
