However, the intimation is that it's the driving force behind who gets called ... that the prophet just thinks up a few good golfing buddies and picks one. Lost on you and others is the possibility that God put people in certain places at certain times just SO they would be called to specific positions. It's a wonder you folks try so hard to remove God as far from his church as you can get him.

We have OT stories of prophets going to great lengths to find outsiders a la David, and we see no David stories in current appointments. Your argument is akin to the "royal lineage" of kings, i.e., God only raises up the rulers within the ruling elite and none other are worthy of God's grace. That's your intimation and the logical extension of your argument, namely, only righteous lines are entitled to lead.

Why don't you interpret it for us so that we don't miss your construction of it.
