Rom.11:34 "For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counselor?"{Isaiah 40:13} 11:35 "Or who has first given to him, and it will be repaid to him again?"{Job 41:11} 11:36 For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things. To him be the glory for ever! Amen.

The apostle Paul makes a profound irrefutable statement here, how can a man born of sin, having a carnal mind under laws of his fallen flesh understand the eternal mind of God? Who of us in looking at the history of mankind destruction of one another would believe they could teach God anything about righteousness. However, as shocking at this is that's exactly what man does when claiming to speaking for God.

Rom.3:10 As it is written, "There is no one righteous; no, not one.
3:11 There is no one who understands. There is no one who seeks after God. 3:12 They have all turned aside. They have together become unprofitable. There is no one who does good, no, not, so much as one."{Psalms 14:1-3; 53:1-3; Ecclesiastes 7:20}
3:13 "Their throat is an open tomb. With their tongues they have used deceit."{Psalm 5:9} "The poison of vipers is under their lips;"{Psalm 140:3} 3:14 "Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness."{Psalm 10:7} 3:15 "Their feet are swift to shed blood.
3:16 Destruction and misery are in their ways. 3:17 The way of peace, they haven't known."{Isaiah 59:7-8} 3:18 "There is no fear of God before their eyes."{Psalm 36:1}

How much destruction and hate has been brought into the human race by men/woman honoring themselves in a position as God's, his mouthpiece upon earth? Paul's entire letter of Roman's refutes idol worship in any manipulated form from religion to government proclaiming the man has changed the worship of God into something like four foot creature, a created thing. Does a beast know the mind of Christ, does a beast produce the fruits of Holy Spirit? Why than worship a mind from a human that is fleshly full of human wisdom that produce nothing but death?
Rom.1:21 Because, knowing God, they didn't glorify him as God, neither gave thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. 1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 1:23 and traded the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, and four-footed animals, and creeping things.

How can such a mind instruct God in the ways of eternal life, when that life perishes into the very dust from which came? How does such an animal mind instruct God in the ways of resurrecting a person into life? Here than is the point, there are but two minds for humans. A mind of death, a fleshly mind that worship idols, or God's mind which cannot be instructed from any sinful human. Either a person chose life, the mind of God found in Christ or they chose the ways of death in idols for a short time on this earth and perish in their sins.

No glory eternally will go to man as an idol, no greatness will be given to men as they long for, no everlasting institution will be built to one human upon earth by God. No human is going to add to God's glory. God's glory was not lost, mankind was lost to God's glory. God is restoring mankind to His eternal mind free from the corruption of sin and death. Mankind must be instructed by God, not the other way around. Mankind is in death and the fruits produced by their trees of knowledge is death. Not one tree mankind planted has produce or will produce gives them the fruits of eternal life in peace.

All the ways of mankind is good and evil, the good mankind does is found out in the evil and destruction that each government and institution every created by the fleshly mind has produced. The wises have said: “all man ways are but foolishness to God!”

Ps. 90:1 <<A Prayer by Moses, the man of God.>> Lord, you have been our dwelling place for all generations. 90:2 Before the mountains were brought forth, before you had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, you are God.
90:3 You turn man to destruction, saying, "Return, you children of men." 90:4 For a thousand years in your sight are just like yesterday when it is past, like a watch in the night.
90:5 You sweep them away as they sleep. In the morning they sprout like new grass. 90:6 In the morning it sprouts and springs up. By evening, it is withered and dry. 90:7 For we are consumed in your anger. We are troubled in your wrath. 90:8 You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.
90:9 For all our days have passed away in your wrath. We bring our years to an end as a sigh. 90:10 The days of our years are seventy, or even by reason of strength eighty years; yet their pride is but labor and sorrow, for it passes quickly, and we fly away. 90:11 Who knows the power of your anger, your wrath according to the fear that is due to you? 90:12 So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
