The bible says man has caused man injury (Ecc.8:9)Jer.10:23 says man cant direct his step. If the bible clearly says man cannot rule man, why do as a Christian vote for another man?

I don't think so, from what I've read, God wanted to be God & men wanted to play king....so God allowed it....Man has caused great injury to man & every thing else around himself in the process....even though during creation God said & it is good....time and time again. Like it says eyes but can not see & ears but can not hear.........! Heaven is before us but man can & so it seems will not see it....which is a choice. If indeed God is still looking down here after all this time, he most likly thinks it will take millions of years yet before we are through our growing pains and reach maturity.

Man was not created to rule over other men.
Man was created to worship God. (Revelation 4:11)
But because of the failure of man to obey God, God said that man will having governing authority over other men.
(Genesis 9:5,6)
Man still does not rule over other men well, however. Obedience to God is optimal, but barring that, God says we are to live under the rule of each other.
Psalm 118:8,9 ~

it says man shall not be ruled by man...not man shall not be governed by man...there's a difference. ruled is to own...govern is to make laws for. the bible also tells us to respect governments authority...did you miss that part?

Man was created to serve and glorify God, and to enjoy Him forever.
