Love obedience
Romans 13:1 King James Version (KJV)
"Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God"
Respect and obedience to the authority that God has placed, are simple keys to live quietly and peacefully. Disobedience is a principle of the kingdom of darkness.
Every disobedient becomes an offering for Satan and accomplice of hell. I invite you to hold us, for love, to the authorities that God himself has placed, I assure you that we will always be well.
Samuel chapter 8 vs. 7..Luke 23 ..
If the civil authority in your area is Hitler..do you follow his authority? Where do we draw the line? Not being crass I would just like to know what you think.
Obviously, obedience to delegated authority is subject to the obedience of authority to the Source: God himself. Only God is Authority, from Him emanates all authority; therefore, disobedience is not only good, but necessary, when the authority set by God does not remain subject to the source.
Would you say that the current civil authorities in America, or wherever you are, emanate from God and are to be followed then?
ALL authority has been placed by God, some to bring judgment to the nation, as here in my country.Other have been placed as an instrument of God himself to bless a nation. The fact that God places it does not mean that God approve their form of government, therefore, while that authority is subject to God, I as a citizen must be obedient, to that authority rebel against who placed him there, God himself, I am in my right to not abide by his orders .
Well put
My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.
There is nothing intrinsic linking any religion with any act of violence. The crusades don't prove that Christianity was violent. The Inquisition doesn't prove that Christianity tortures people. But that Christianity did torture people.
