"The only thing we learn from history is that we learn nothing from history."
Friedrich Hegel didn't get much right in his life. But he was right about that.
It's a story as old as the prophet Samuel, before David slew Goliath and before Solomon was a twinkle in Bathsheba's eye.
The people wanted change.
They wanted to be like all the other nations – presided over by a king.
They rejected self-government with accountability directly to God.
The Israelites pleaded with Samuel: "Make us a king to judge us like all the nations" (1 Samuel 8).
Samuel was greatly distressed by this popular uprising. So he asked God about it.
Here's what God advised Samuel: "Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them."
God recognized that His special, beloved, disobedient, chosen people didn't appreciate what they had – probably the freest, safest society on the face of the Earth. They were envious of other nations that were ruled by a king.
So He was inclined to grant them their wish. But, before doing so, He issued a warning to the people about what life would be like under the rulership of an earthly king:
* he would take their sons for his own purposes – making war, working for his government;
* he would take their daughters to do his bidding;
* he would take their property and redistribute it as he saw fit;

“Because he clings to Me, is joined to Me, loves and delights in Me, desires Me, therefore I will deliver him, carry him safely away, cause him to escape from harm making him inaccessible and strong, and delivering him safely to heaven, because he has known, observed, cared for, recognized, instructed and advised others to use, designated, acknowledged, discerned, answered in, My name, authority, character, report, mark, and nature." Psalm 91:14 |

In UK tax is at about 50% if one includes direct and indirect taxes, and it creeps up yearly. But of course we have a huge public sector on index linked pensions to support.
The National Health Service is, I beleve, the biggest employer in the country.
It is a huge black hole into which taxes disappear with no apparent gain.
Socialism has been around now for several hundred years, it has left behind it an almost 100% record of failure and hundreds of millions of premature deaths.
Yet the socialist secular humanists, those who worship man's knowledge of Good and Evil, consider themselves an intellectual elite who know what is best for all of us.
The serpent said that my knowledge of good and evil, passed down to me by my father, makes me a god, but only a physical god (he omitted to tell us this), and everytime I use that godship I break the first commandment, thou shall have no gods before ME (YHWH) and this is sin (falling short)
YHWH, my (Spiritual) Father has absolute Knowledge of (all) Good and Evil (righteousness). He gave us Torah, which reflects His Knowledge of Good and Evil, and which, if we abide by it, mitigates our own limited knowledge (from the forbidden fruit) and reduces our vulnerability to the adversary.
Yehoshua, as the fulfilment of Torah, repairs the damage and brings us back to YHWH's Knowledge now written upon our hearts. Yehoshua did not die for my sins, he died for the cause of my sin which is my knowledge of good and evil (leaven).
Man's knowledge of good and evil is the leaven of men, so I enter the portals of Pesach (the upright pole) and I am purified, I allow my leaven to be purged by the Mother, such that I am Matzos, I am waved before my Father as a sheave of Firstfruit (Omer), I am then ground and cooked with the leaven of YHWH to be once more waved before YHWH at Shavot as complete.
Now I can be trusted with His power, because I have been 'born from above' and once more I have access to His Knowledge of Good and Evil.
I can now shout His name YHWH!to the world at Taruwa
And I am with YHWH, clothed in white at Yom Kippur
And I camp out with YHWH for ever at Sukkot
