the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth. (Genesis 8: 21)
Whereas, Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. (James 1: 17)
Go to the toddler and consider his ways, for children learn from their environment.
Contrary to private and public opinion, we are born to be bad, not born to be good. We are born to tear down and destroy, not born to build up. When a toddler learns to walk, he becomes a soldier of terror. When he does not get his way, he stomps. Left alone in his ways and without corrective discipline, he will continue his binge of destruction, for he knows no other way. He will be mean and nasty, not pleasant and nice. As he grows older, he will seek people who are like-minded because he identifies with their behavior, and he will seek a brotherhood of his own characteristics.
Moreover, if the toddler is trained in the school of religion, he will be religious. If he is taught to worship idols, he will worship idols. If he is taught that a man of the earth can forgive his sin, he will go to that man to have his sin absolved. If he is taught socialism, he will become a socialist. In his mind, he will seek others who are like-minded, and he will hate those who are not like him. For the toddler's knowledge is planted in his mind from people within his own environment.
On the other hand, a toddler can be taught how to be a good and nice person within a religion. He can be taught to take baths, comb his hair, wear clean clothes, be a good neighbor to others, get a good education, get a good job, make money, and become a model citizen. After which he can train his children to do likewise: to be a good religious person. Through his goodness, he will believe that he is in good standing with the god of his religion. That he is a man of peace instead of a man of war. And because he believes that his religion has purified him, he will not believe that he needs Christ for salvation because he found salvation in his religion: in those rites and rituals that he can see with his eyes and touch with his hands. This toddler's knowledge has also been planted in his mind from people within his own environment, but because he is good and nice, instead of a terrorist toddler, his life will become a performance of good deeds.
Without God, however, the imagination of man is a factory of evil. He can create things that are evil as well as look evil, but, because of his power to deceive, he can also create evil things that actually look good and sound good. For example, a Devil's Food cake appears to be a white cake. Yet only the icing is white, for under the icing the cake is black. Likewise, a man in a white robe can appear to be a minister of God, yet under the white robe the man's heart is black with evil, for he is only pretending to be a minister of God, and, because of his power to deceive, people will actually believe that he is a minister of God, after which they will bow to him, as if he is a god, and kiss his ring.
Even before the Great Flood of Noah, God rendered His assessment of man's behavior on the earth by saying: every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. (Genesis 6: 6)
Because of this power to deceive that man exercises from his imagination, many people of the earth believe that God is among us in a man on the earth, that he rides on a white horse, in an armored limousine, in a bulletproof chariot, and flies in a sophisticated aircraft surrounded by a squadron of military fighter jets. If they truly believe that their "god among us" is supernatural, why do they believe they must protect him from being killed, murdered, or assassinated?
Throughout human history, men of religion have been the kings of pedophilia---the darkest evil of man's evil imagination. And though people of religion can know that their "god among us" is a pedophile, that he rapes little boys and girls, they will turn their faces from this truth because they believe that their god can do whatever he wants to do, that he should have whatever he desires to have, because if they deny their god, he will deny them---because he is, after all, a god and not a man.
And when God saw Nimrod and the people building the tower of Babel, the Lord said: now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. (Genesis 11: 6)
In man's imagination, he builds a brick wall that protects him from the knowledge of Almighty God. In the world that he creates in his own imagination, he feels safe and secure, for it is there that he also believes he has manufactured his own way to step over sin and to reach his imaginary destination, which is his imaginary heaven---a utopia without God. In his imaginary world, however, Satan has pulled the wool over his eyes and closed the blinds. And because of the power of man's imagination, he sees his own image in his imaginary heaven, created in his mind from the imaginations of evil men, which is a double exposure: their minds became his mind.
But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: in whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. (2 Corinthians 4: 3-4)
