Psalm 53: God Does Intervene

The World and the Church are two separate and opposed camps occupying the same space and time. One says,”There is no God; the other, “There is a God.” All humans were born in the World, which lies in the Evil One, until rescued and brought into the Church, which lies in the Holy One. One is ruled by an Enemy, the other by a Friend.

The deceived Fool ignores God and does not pay attention because he thinks God does not pay attention, or intervene, or care; therefore he is corrupt and abominable. The rescued Wise person, now in His camp, seeks God and pays attention because he knows his God does pay attention and He does intervene and He does care; therefore he repents, believes and prays.

The World encamps around and besieges the Church, which believes and prays for salvation. Their Lord intervenes and scatters the bones of the foolish world that remains in ignorance (not meaning stupid but actually “ignoring” God). God intervenes in human history: Salvation has come out of Zion in the person of the Overcomer and He has restored us. We are glad and rejoice. And further: This happens daily and richly.
