Moral Courage in the face of Monstrous Evil
Drain The Swamp
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world,
against spiritual wickedness in high places.
(Ephesians 6:12)
Prophet Ezekiel (8:7-9)
Then He brought me to the entrance to the court, and I looked and saw a hole in the wall.
Then He said to me,
"Go in and see the wicked abominations they are committing here."
The Nature Of Fallen man
Genesis 6:5
Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed the evil thoughts, fornications, thefts, murders, adulteries, deeds of coveting and wickedness, as well as deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride and foolishness.
"Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Great men are almost always bad men."
John Emerich Edward Dalberg Acton, (Lord Acton), in 1887

More power to a good heart produces more good works,
while more power to an evil heart produces more evil works.
