before i discuss politics i like to remind myself of Psalm 2
Why do the nations rage
and the peoples plot in vain?
The kings of the earth set themselves,
and the rulers take counsel together,
against the Lord and against his Anointed, saying,
Let us burst their bonds apart
and cast away their cords from us.”
He who sits in the heavens laughs;
the Lord holds them in derision…
from this i draw no small measure of peace, knowing that the Sovereign Lord not only allows special interest groups and conspiracies to ally themselves - often to the detriment of believers - but ultimately it is God who permits them to foster for a time, and it is He who restrains them as casts them down in good time
