What is the Purpose of this Account?
There was no king
without a controlling force over us we do what is right in our own eyes
with our sin nature morals will decline quickly
Lord of the flies, William Golding
Man’s inherent evil
The fact that the main characters in Lord of the Flies are young boys suggests the potential for evil is inherent even in small children.
Jack, for example, is initially keen for rules and civility, but becomes obsessed with hunting, frightened and empowered by the promise of violence.
Jack’s desire to control and subjugate proves more powerful than his desire for empathy, intellect, and civilization, and Jack becomes a brutal and leader.
Even Ralph and Piggy, who both strive to maintain their sense of humanity, ultimately join in on the mass murder of Simon, momentarily surrendering to the thrill of violence and mass hysteria.
While Piggy tries to ignore their participation, Ralph is devastated when he realizes that he is no better than Jack or Roger, and that he has a darkness inside as well.
in the end when rescued they turn back into civilized boys
we as believers could be like the Levite
But we have King Jesus controlling our lives
the Holy Spirit living in us
