HHS: 82,000 people being led by, and paid by unelected officials without moral obligations to the American people?

Sure, what can go wrong?

There is a reason God confused the languages of the rebels who worked on the Tower of Babel. It’s not that man’s power would equal God’s, it’s that man’s arrogance and foolishness would appear successful, and elevated so that many men would follow them.

God told Gideon to subdue the Midianite army described as “thick as locusts” with “camels as numerous as the grains of sand on the seashore.” Gideon mustered 32,000 troops. God said that was too many, and Gideon reduced them to 10,000.

God said it was still too many and reduced Gideon’s army to just 300 men. Why?

If Israel achieved a victory in their own strength, they would boast against God, saying, “My own strength has saved me.”

Ahhh, the arrogance! The pride of men’s hearts! Man thinks that earthly greatness is a virtue! But, look at where it leads: 82,000 federal employees doing the job of half that amount at many times the cost!

Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty (superior) spirit before a fall. Proverbs 16:18

I didn't know that about crossfire and the nuclear deal. Interesting. This could get big?

Add this to the list.
