A Change of Heart

I'm sad that we can't seem to figure out what the deal is with our actions.  We educate people.  We make things public.  We have access to truth, and lies.  We have people who speak their minds. We have justice. We have detectives.  We have prisons.  We have death penalties.  We have checks and balances.  We have laws. Yet we can't seem to stop any of the bad that happens.  What's up with that? Isn't there a law, or several, that can fix our problems.  The answer is no.  (step on soapbox) The real issue isn't a social one.  The real issue is a spiritual one.  We need changed HEARTS in our world, not changed minds or even actions.  We make everything a social issue that we think can be fixed by a new law or a new philosophy, when in actuality it's a heart issue.  Hearts can only be changed by God through Jesus Christ.  Even the law that God gave Moses did not change the hearts of the people and those were laws from God!  (Romans 8:3 "For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering." Open your Bible and read on. Paul wrote inspired to be sure!)  Why in the world would we expect laws made by people to change hearts?  We are just that disillusioned and Satan loves it.  Get to the real issue.  We need a heart change and we need God to do it.  (step down from soapbox)
