Schemes of Naught

God’s Word informs us that during the end times, the wicked–which is practically ALL men–shall grow worse and worse.

“But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.”
–2TIMOTHY 3:13

This circumstance will become even more clear as certain men will–not being able to secure what their heart desires legitimately–turn to various nefarious schemes to satisfy their covetousness. This is particularly true of family members, some–no longer loving one another– turn on various other members of their family to confiscate money and other goods they desire.

“And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.”
–Matthew 24:12

BUT, the joke is on them.

It somehow escapes the workers of iniquity that there are always OTHER workers of iniquity who have more power than they do, who covet what those under them have.

This covetousness does not arise from any desire for anything in particular. No, this covetousness comes from a highly-developed sense of TAKING WHAT THEY DO NOT POSSESS–regardless of whether they can use it; regardless of whether they have much knowledge about it; regardless of whether they even care much whether they possess it.

And so, many, many low-level workers of iniquity will hatch and develop their schemes to defraud and steal from others, not realizing that they are only gathering together goods for some other worker of iniquity to later take from them.ho

Basically, if it exists, they who covet, want it.

But because those on the lower levels of sin are deceived, they do not believe that what they have done to others can be easily enough done to them.

Many wicked men will work–some for YEARS–at their infernal plans to deceive and defraud members of their family, ONLY to end up with NOTHING because others of their ilk are also scheming at taking things which are not their’s.

So, in effect, a GREAT MANY wicked will spend countless hours and resources laboring at schemes of naught: of nothingness; of nullity; of insignificance. In much the same manner, those who deceived other folks will themselves be deceived.

And that which they have done to others WILL be done to them.

Of course, NONE of the workers of iniquity are accumulating stuff that will, in the end, belong to them.

God’s Word is VERY clear on that point.

“For God giveth to a man that is good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he giveth travail, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to him that is good before God. This also is vanity and vexation of spirit. “
–Ecclesiastes 2:26

“This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of oppressors, which they shall receive of the Almighty. If his children be multiplied, it is for the sword: and his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread. Those that remain of him shall be buried in death: and his widows shall not weep. Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay; He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the silver.”
–Job 27:13-17

“A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children’s children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.”
–Proverbs 13:22

Again, NONE of the workers of iniquity are accumulating stuff that will NOT remain in their hands for very long.

But, because they are deceived, those who scheme will have to see it happen before they will believe it.

“For the son dishonoureth the father, the daughter riseth up against her mother, the daughter in law against her mother in law; a man’s enemies are the men of his own house.”
–Micah 7:6

Besides, those who covet do so because it’s what they do: NOT because it makes much sense or benefits them in important ways, but because they are wicked and depraved.

DOES the reader know of anyone who is always scheming to get his hands on someone else’s property?

It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16
