Everyone is "subject and subjected to" evil thoughts. Scriptures present these thoughts as from the tempter, Satan, the devil. Not us, but a foreign intruder, internally.

Job was no exception. So exactly who do you think God was dealing with? Just Job? Nope! The tempter was also with(in) Job's own mind as well. And as such, God reserves the right to treat that entity (class) accordingly, in anyone. This is the foundation of fear of the Lord, rightfully so.

Jesus clearly advised all of us that where the Word is sown, Satan does enter the heart. Do the math. People are not alone between their own two ears.

Romans 11:32

For God has bound everyone over to disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all.

That does not mean mercy is extended to the devil and his messengers, in mankind, as Job and other scriptural depictions show us.

Knowing this, we are technically equipped to resist, to fight, to control. But we can not eliminate the internal lawlessness that we all factually have. It is from a source that is not us as God's children.

Ephesians 2:

2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

Truthful children of God know this, and can speak of it. Those who remain blinded and under control of the spirit of disobedience can not tell the truth of the matter, because the devil is a liar, by nature, and still controls their minds and tongues.

Look upon yourself, inside. You'll see it and understand, maybe.

Paul provided us with an easy measure in Romans 7, showing, proving that where the Law, the Word is sown, in the case of Romans 7, the law against lust, that every manner of lust came into his own mind.

He concluded from this that evil was in fact present with him. Romans 7:21. As it is within all of us.

And as such, the Spirit is not just our friend. The Spirit is always in contention with the flesh, wherein evil makes it's secret hidden den.

Gal. 5:

17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

Spiritually blinded people will blame anyone but never look upon themselves. Here for example they (the devils in people) blame the Jews. Never will they observe their own evil present. They can not, because they are in fact blinded by that working internally, and are compelled by that evil that is not them, to look to anyone else but themselves.

Paul isolated this issue with his own flesh, showing openly that he had a messenger of Satan in his own flesh. 2 Cor. 12:7.

And he concludes from this fact that this technically made him the "chief of sinners" even after salvation. 1 Tim. 1:15.

This is the basis of all Paul's writings, the two vessels noted in Romans 9:18-24 or 2 Tim. 2:20-21 for examples.

One vessel (all mankind) God Loves and cherishes. The other vessel (the devil and his messengers) maintain an adverse resisting relationship with God.

And of course all of this is by Divine Design and Intentions. It's how God set up our current system.

The evil present within all people is never in cooperation with God no matter who you pray to and how such prayers are structured.

People are simply dishonest about this internal fact and that's all there is to it.

It does take the Divine Gift of honesty to speak honestly about it, as Paul did for example in Romans 7:21.

Paul didn't claim his evil present was legal, obedient, faithful, correct or under God's Mercy and Grace in Christ.

Paint the tomb how you please. Put whatever form of prayers upon it you please. The facts of evil present internally within all is not going to change one iota nor is God about to bless any of that working in whatever (continually dishonest) forms it cloaks itself with.

It's only unfortunate that 'beeleevers lie about it and hide under the covers when it comes to this particular aspect of ourselves.

All have sin. Sin is of the devil.

Do the math.

A fair observation.

IF we look at the basic construct of the parables "disciples" i.e. followers of Jesus' (Living) Words disciples will be led to understanding. Others will not.

However it is a mistake to see others as non-believers in the individual senses of the word.

We know that unbelievers are blinded in mind by the god of this world. That would be Satan (and devils-his family). 2 Cor. 4:4, Eph. 2:2 etc. These are not people, but foreign intruders upon the minds of all mankind. <- Disciples will first learn to see this working within their own minds as the presence of evil with(in) themselves. Romans 7:21.

Disciples should know that where the Word is sown, Satan does in fact enter the heart to steal same. This should logically conclude to them that even we are not then technically alone between our own 2 ears.

Jesus said to understand "all" parables we have to understand the parable of the sower. In all accounts of this parable in the 3 Gospels, Matthew, Mark and Luke, there are 3 principle parties involved. God (His Living Parable Word), mankind and Satan (devils).

Given this construct WHO is it then that is not meant to understand???

The answer is quite obvious to Jesus' Disciples. Devils are not given understanding nor are they meant to have understanding from God.

They were purposefully made to automatically resist God, on cue, wherever the Word is sown.

Technically then part of everyone will not understand God's Word, and will in fact resist same, because of this construct.

Paul shows us how this worked upon himself in Romans 7:7-13. Where the Word against coveting (or lust) was sown, lust (which is of the devil) comes to the fore IN MIND and shows itself as internally active within all of us.

Only those who see this fact can speak and write "truthfully" about it, in accordance with scriptural disclosures.

However IF anyone reads the Word, in Mark 4:15 for example, seeing that Satan enters the heart to steal the Word and automatically exempts themselves, they have in fact been blindsided by Satan.

Jesus' Words contain many conundrums i.e. problematic things to work out.

For example, if we think we have been promised ALL TRUTH and then falsely think we have 'ALL TRUTH.

ALL TRUTH contains an exemption clause that we only see in part.

Therein lies the conundrum. Having ALL TRUTH means also having a factual situation of seeing only in part.

Anyone or any group that claims to have ALL TRUTH apart from seeing only in part are in fact brazen hopeless liars.

Only God has The Full Perfect Picture. God is the only One capable of having The Full Perfect Picture. Again, anyone who thinks otherwise is a lying deceiver.

No one in this present life, in the flesh, is capable of having The Full Perfect Picture.

You: "Humanity blinds itself"

Jesus:

Mark 4:

15 And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.

Paul:

2 Corinthians 4:4

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.

Ephesians 2:

2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

John:

1 John 3:

8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

Most people look at humanity/people and only see the person as individuals or collectives of individuals.

Scripture doesn't see that way. Scripture sees and addresses TWO PARTIES, man and devil in the same pair of shoes. One God in Christ is for, the other God in Christ is against.

God Wins in any case of sight, regardless, and achieves exactly as He Desires.

Rev. 4:

Revelation 4:11

Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
