Wonder if making scapegoats, and passing the blame

[Steven Bobb]

Wonder if making scapegoats, and passing the blame to others to clear your name, is a trait of the fallen nature.Because it's been going on since Adam and Eve.When God confronted Adam, he said"the woman who You gave me deceived me, and so I ate."(Yeah,but you knew God told you not to,and YOU made a decision to listen to her instead of God.}Eve:"the serpent mislead me, and I ate."(Yeah,but you chose the serpents words over Gods.}People will try to throw the blame on someone else to try to take the guilt off , themselves.But also, if things are going wrong, they'll scapegoat someone.For years AFTER George Bush was president, he was blamed for everything since Original Sin.If a fly landed on someones picnic hamburger, George Bush was blamed for it.It feels good to have a scapegoat, doesn't it.? Not to mention the extreme, over the top hatred of DonaldTrump. So wondering, is this "blame game " and scapegoating,another "side effect" of the fallen nature?After all,the sinners prayer states,"forgive ME a sinner", NOT" I sinned because George Bush made me do it."

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
