THE THESIS: Jerome Powell is the perfect example of educated idiocracy and the embodiment of what I have always said is the worst possible combination in authority figures: arrogance plus ignorance.
THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES:
Galatians 6:7
7 Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.
6:7, 8 The principle of sowing and reaping was known to everyone in a largely agricultural society. It is a vain attempt to “mock” God for a Christian to think that if he sows to his flesh he can escape the harvest of destruction and judgment that comes upon those who participate in sin (5:19–21; Hos. 8:7). Corruption is a term used for a field in which the produce is too rotten to harvest (see Heb. 6:8). Some interpret corruption to imply eternal destruction, either through losing salvation or through never having been truly saved at all. Others understand a tragic loss of rewards for the carnal believer (see 1 Cor. 3:12–15; 2 Cor. 5:10; Rev. 22:12). He who sows to the Spirit will … reap everlasting life does not mean that eternal life is earned by works. Rather, Paul is saying that everlasting life is the glorious end of those who follow the guidance of the Spirit (see Rom. 6:22).
