Romans 13:1 – Lee Duigon

Nero… who murdered Christians

There are always Christians who insist Romans 13:1 means that whoever happens to be in power at the moment, even if it’s a bloodthirsty monster who murdered his way to the top, has to be honored and obeyed–because God put him there.

Are the Powers That Be Really Ordained by God?

But Romans 13 goes on to describe what it is that God “ordains” the civil power to do. So when that power rewards evildoers and makes itself a terror to the innocent–sound familiar? or don’t you live in a Democrat city?–and actively makes war on God’s word and on God’s people… it’s a righteous thing to oppose that power. As the various Judges did, and David, and Our Lord Jesus Christ Himself.

Ah! But Jesus didn’t rebel against the power, did He?

No, because He came here as a sacrifice. But when He comes again, watch out.

Why do we listen to these people?

If the churches had not spent the last hundred years or so collecting bellybutton lint, we would not be in the ridiculous position we’re in today. But while the church slept, the Devil’s servants were busy as bees.

Probably not the best idea, Attorney General Jeff Sessions recently tried to defend our country’s immigration laws by quoting Romans 13: “[T]he powers that be are ordained of God” (verse 1). Oh, Jeff ( https://townhall.com/columnists/michaelbrown/2018/06/19/quoting-the-bible-jeff-sessions-and-a-warning-about-whats-coming-next-n2492221). You should’ve just said, “I’m the attorney general and it’s my duty to enforce the laws.”

So now the leftids in the nooze media, and the Democrat Party hacks–please pardon the tautology–are having a field day with their new equation, “Bible = Cruelly Tearing Children From Their Families’ Arms.” And we Christians should all be ashamed of the Bible and ashamed of our laws and our country and of everything else because it makes us the same as Nazis or slaveholders or people who forget to recycle their plastic, blah-blah-blah.

Why do we even listen to this crap? Lessons in Christianity from persons who despise Christianity and Christians. Lessons in family values from people who despise the family as an institution and are doing their best to destroy it. Lessons in “truth” from the same dunderheads whose college sages declare there is no truth–only “your truth” and “their truth,” and somehow their truth always wins.

As Christians we have a duty to ignore such people, to deny them access to our children, and do our level best to get their favorite institutions defunded and discredited. Kill public education, and leftism dies. That’s a fact.

Don’t be fooled. All this Democrat tear-jerking and garment-rending has nothing to do with compassion. All they want is to flood the country with illegal aliens. They think it means cheap votes.

Don’t let their sob stories get to you. And if you’re still wondering what could go wrong if the leftids get their way, take a few minutes to look at what they’ve done to San Francisco.
