your question contradicts your previous statement.

"governments all over the world make use of the appalling lack of a
logical mindset amongst their people to manipulate and control."

whenever a human makes use of the unknowing nature of another
human in order to hold power over the unknowing there is always
corruption at work by the very definition of the word manipulate
which is to control or play upon by artful, unfair, or insidious
means esp. to one's own advantage. where is the charity of seeking
ones own advantage?

what governments on this planet are not composed of humans, i.e. man?

you did not understand the concept "of his own power". since
your eyes are wide shut there are no amount of words any human
can utilize to enlighten you. the knowing of this exact knowledge
can only arrive from the knowing of The Holy Spirit.

having The Holy Spirit in your life and heart is the result of a
choice you and only you can make by faith and faith alone. your
postings indicate you are alone within yourself.

as you go about a task in your own power you reveal your lack.
if there was no charity in my heart for you, I'd LOL @U.
