The Foolishness Of God

Torman Maxt


"I will utterly ruin the wisdom of the wise.
I will reduce to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar?
Where is the professional arguer of the world?
Has not God reduced to foolishness the wisdom of the world?”

Of course we run away from love
We run away from God
He that is the truth
Is what we do not want

Like lightning falling from the sky
We are surrounded with the lies

“With all the wisdom the greeks had…
With all the wisdom the egyptians had…
With all the wisdom of all the cultures of all mankind in its totality…
In the wisdom of God they never found him.
The golden age of greece led them to plato's republic,
Utter disaster, moral chaos, and multiple polytheistic worship.
That was the golden age of greece.
The summit of man's wisdom led him to despair.”

Some do fear you
Others jeer you
All will die

And we see this world around us
It's the same as long ago
Still searching for the answers
But without the God that knows...who knows

...Eyes turn away
Away to heed the things within the heart
Eyes turn away
Eyes turn away

The arrogance of man is rising to a lofty level
And I see the land is full of idols
Bowing down to what their fingers made

“Never before in the history of mankind
Have there been so many people running around the landscape
Saying, “here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here…”
And nobody has found him yet…”

A man named noah listens to the jeers of neighbors
Laughing at a man who builds a boat on land
Utter foolishness to those who see
This act of faith apart from God
A man named moses running for his life
He tries to part the sea by raising up a wooden staff
Utter foolishness to those who see
This act of faith apart from God
