The resistance encouraged in Scripture isn't political, it's personal.

Resisting the urge to self-seek, promote
Resisting the urge to feed our ego
Resisting a tendency to vanity
Resisting the constant seeking of consolations from others, or from created goods
Resisting the urge to not serve others, perhaps our family members, when we think we're tired.

Resisting the tendency to "assign" greater value to our injuries.

When we finish mastery of those less than holy dispositions...and many other temptations to disorder....then there won't be that many political problems to solve.
