Humanity's Insatiable Dilemma

When will humanity ever be satisfied? At what point will we all one day look around at all that we have and finally say, “Enough…. There, I have enough. I’m filled and satisfied; I lack nothing.”

This will never happen so as long as humanity lives by its own devices. As long as people still live by insatiable desires and by allowing those insatiable desires to dictate, or even a little more gently, motivate our passions then humanity will maintain it’s pursuit of everything “self”. The dilemma becomes our desire without limits vs. our limited ability to fulfill those desires fully creating this devoid-ed self-centered desire to fulfill that which cannot be satisfied. It’s the dragon swallowing its tail theory (which I’m to write about later…). We can’t fully consume what we want, which in it’s fundamental nature is ourselves. To completely fulfill “self” would be to consume self, leaving us destroyed by our own appetites.

Man’s heart is wicked through and through. Its passions unbridled are the very destruction of self and destruction of others as a means to obtain the satisfaction so passionately craved yet unable to fulfill.

Humanity by default, through disobedience (which is its passions lived full without regard for any other but self), is now at a sub-level of intended existence. Humanity was fully created to exist at a level we’ve never fathomed except in fairy tale. The level of existence intended for mankind is of such higher existence that to merely believe in the possibility of that type of humanity or that humanity had been created as such is considered by all human standards foolishness. This categorizing of such an existence as foolish is ipso-facto proof of humanity’s degraded existence.

What then is the cure for man’s selfish wantings and selfish consumptions? Only the Self-less One who came in the twisted and vexed form of humanity, this sub-level humanity, to destroy in Himself for all times the sub-human level of existence that humanity has been bound by through it’s duration after the garden fall. It has been destroyed by His being destroyed. The power over such an existence was won by His resurrection. He exuded power over that which man is powerless.

Humanity and its insatiable desires can be sustained now through the One destroyed and raised. He alone is fulfillment, bringing humanity into perpetual peace in a world consumed and at war with itself.
