What Good?

What good is all the theology in the world if we don't show the contrast between the 'self' serving will of man and the 'other' oriented will of God... the clash and counter-culture between Kingdom and world of man? What is the good of talking of all sorts of sins when the only and original sin is putting our selfish will ahead of the will of God? What good is exchanging God's Gospel of the Kingdom for a salvation gospel of man? What good is it in making it about ourselves rather than about God? What good is the Holy Spirit to you for guidance unless you are already on the narrow path of the Kingdom? What good is focusing on how we got a shot at entering the Kingdom without knowing why or what makes the Kingdom different? What good is expecting to be saved when we haven't even rejected the ways and world of man? What good is first focusing on self salvation when the Gospel is about the coming Kingdom/governance of God... Him, not us? What good is faith or hope in the unknown when God has already said what will happen as a fact and He would not have said His Kingdom would come and His will would be done if it were not so?
