imho your post nailed it.

This so-called budget crisis is not a technical problem because everyone's got lots of number links and nobody agrees.  What it all boils down to is that a few thousand years ago we'd have been happy to have just seven years of plenty.   What we got now is more like seventy years of plenty but the 'forces of darkness' come up with never-ending complaints.  

btw, I do consider myself a Bible scholar, but your reference really clicked.  Thanks.

Well if you liked that...

...a lot of the "brotherly love" fought over by the Apostles (like the sibling rivalry of which of them will be the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven) still goes on today with our Christian Faiths and religious communities.

Thus, demonic division is not limited to the atheists (Bolshevik vs. National Socialism in pre-WW2 Europe, or perhaps what the Scriptures described as Pharisees and Scribes cleric politics. Demonic division is an attack against the human heart via PRIDE. Our natural differences, like the sexes, weren't meant to be unnatural divisions. This can only come from the father of lies.

Jesus unites as He is the Center of All Life and indeed, Life, Itself. Just as we are made both Man and Woman, Jesus unites into one flesh Husband and Wife via the Sacrament of Marriage.

God will do the same for all arguments...even for economics. He helps us give in Faith without counting the cost, yet still instructs us to build Reasonably by first planning construction within our budget.

When we use Jesus as the Heart and Spirit of human endeavors, we unite the strength of both the Artistic emotional leadership spirit with the Analytical grounded wise leadership. The two halves were never meant to be split, yet they are. It's a wound only the Supernatural can heal.

Now, we'll see more "right" and "left" in revelation of what is truly "right" and "wrong". Sin will be cleaved from the wheat.
