No...these things are rather a component of "My strength is made perfect in weakness."
"Confounded" is like "weakness", like "strength", but misunderstood.
Just as "blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in", so too, have we all had limited access to "all truth" until these times. Likewise, those things that are written regarding "the love of many growing cold" and "brother betraying brother", are the power of God unto salvation.
"Be not troubled."
Are you familiar the scripture that say that some twist the scriptures? Because that is exactly what you are doing. You have only helped to prove my opening post. Like an unrepentant person, who was caught committing a crime, you go to such length to justify confusion among those who claim to serving God and obeying Jesus.
2 Peter 3:16 (MOFF)
16 speaking of this as he has done in all his letters—letters containing some knotty points, which ignorant and unsteady souls twist (as they do the rest of the scriptures) to their own destruction.
Jesus prayed to His Father to make His people one just like He and His Father are one.
John 17:22 (KJV)
22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:
Is there any prayer that Jesus has ever prayed and His Father never answered?
The bible say that two cannot walk unless they are in agreement.
Amos 3:3 (NKJV)
3 Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?
God is not into confusion or confounding among His people. In fact, God provided a way around that when He gave the disciples the ability to speak in other languages on the day of Pentecost.
Acts 2:1-12 (KJV)
1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.
6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language.
7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?
8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?
9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,
10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes,
11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.
12 And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?
The only one who wants confusion and confounding is satan, the god of this world, and he has been busy among the churches in that respect. But God's true Church is not a part of that......they are one as Jesus prayed His Father to make them one.
