We put our trust in politicians, in spite of the way we know that they act up. We put our trust in programs, in spite of the fact that we know they are flawed. That's what we'll count on. Which is precisely the opposite of the way our thinking should be. The people who we trust tend to be corrupt.
People are compromisers.
They lack courage. They would rather listen to public opinion polls, than do what their own hearts and what the word of God tells then is right. We should not place undue trust in human beings, because we are flawed. And human solutions are always short-term ones. Put not your trust in princes, in mortal human beings, in whom there is no help.
