I could point to passages, both old and new testament, that disprove your assertion.
And I can point numerous passages where God told them to go and kill everyone and everything because they were evil.

I think you're brave and right on the money.Heard yesterday that some on my old job think I need to "give it a rest".
They have been seeing that on any social media post they make, if appropriate, I will drop in a video of our getting fired or something about their prosecuting the mandates.
I do feel at times the whiny bitch but the alternative is that these guys hide what they did and continue to beat their chests on how great they are. It's an unhealthy obsession to me but it's all I got right now. "With Bitterness" is not a good way to live.
Because we let them.....the abuse will continue and get worse.
ExactlyThey want you to quit reminding them of how weak they are. People don't like to be reminded of their character flaws and the sooner you go away they can get back to normal.
Standing up to evil is not a sin.…and not a sin.
Yes, God told the Israelites to kill every living thing in the land of Canaan.And I can point numerous passages where God told them to go and kill everyone and everything because they were evil.
EVERY living thing, including donkeys, dogs, cats, chickens, pigs?And I can point numerous passages where God told them to go and kill everyone and everything because they were evil.

If so, that some Genghis Khan shit.
Yeah, and they didn't do it and are still dealing with the results todayEVERY living thing, including donkeys, dogs, cats, chickens, pigs?

Are there times when we should not obey the Government? We should never allow the government to force us to disobey God. Jesus and his apostles never disobeyed the Government for personal reason, when they disobeyed it was in order to follow God's higher law. Their disobedience was not cheap. They were threatened, beaten, thrown in jail, tortured, and executed for their convictions. Like them if we are ready to disobey we must accept the consequences.In your opinion, was the American revolution a violation of Romans 13:1-7 and 1 Peter 2:13 ?
Something, something about condoning evil...Some folks think the Old Testament don't be like it is...
Jews back in the old days knew how to do a proper genocide and annihilation of their enemies.
Me too. I'd find myself stop reading and asking 'What?, and I'm supposing to be OK with this?'I basically gave up about halfway through. In a nutshell, that is the entire platform.
They need to knock off the vulgarity, faggotry, trying to control the world from behind a curtain and hating me because I'm not one of them and maybe we'll talk.Yeah, and they didn't do it and are still dealing with the results today
Don’t be a Ned Flanders, be a king Ehud.the real question!
honestly man, quite possibly. I am a theologian but I don't actually claim to know everything lol
First off, you are absolutely wrong, because both the Jewish leaders and the Romans forbid the apostles to proselytize and spread their faith. Most of the time they were thrown in jail it was not because of some esoteric blasphemy, but simply because they were "causing trouble" preaching their faith. The Romans just didn't want another revolt, so they would enforce or no enforce whatever laws kept the public the calmest. The whole "give unto Cesar" was a clever way to get out of being accused of treason, not a Christ jussive to follow whatever immoral laws were passed. It's a near total fail when either the left or the right tries to claim God is on their side (especially true when trying to put a devine venire on man's laws), which is why Lincoln only claimed that he was trying to be on God's side.Are there times when we should not obey the Government?

Wittingly or unwittingly, peoprle in authority are God's servants. They are allowed their position in order to do good. When authorities are unjust however, up right people are afraid. When authorities are just , people who are doing what is right have nothing to fear. This provides our principle motivation to pray for our leaders. Praying for those in authority over us will also mean that we will watch them closely. If we pray diligently for our leaders, we will be functioning as God's sentinels.
The above is lifted directly out of my study bible on Romans 13 in an attempt to lay out what would make it just.
While things like the Boston Massacre, protest of un fair and unconstituional acts resulted in the Brits killing a few protestors, I think this qualifies as unjust authority and would argue that the British Crown broke Gods law and trust in being a fair governing body. Along with other actions.
You can not eat partake in the blood and body in an unworthy manner.
Uh, put the calipers on CumAllah's neck and freakishly big head.
Her head and big jaw are bigger everytime I see her. She's easy to spot in a crowd.
You started off by stating I am absolutly wrong, that portion was literally copied straight out of a study Bible. I was not claiming it as my thoughts or work. If you have issue with it I can direct you to who you can take that up with.First off, you are absolutely wrong, because both the Jewish leaders and the Romans forbid the apostles to proselytize and spread their faith.

That is just as ridiculous as saying you shouldn't obey the government because of God, as that you should because of God. The above missive is tantamount to claiming to know God's plan and his designs. The American Revolution is rightly spoken of in terms of devine providence, but those revolutionaries were unquestionably treasonous traitors to The Crown, which is supposedly granted the right-to-rule through God Almighty. It is absolutely unclear if the Boston Masacre wasn't just British soldiers defending themselves, and in fact the mob lost in court (if you will recall), so that one is out the window as well.
If I were you, believer or not, I would keep God out of politics as much as possible unless it came to something that is clear like condoning the murder of an innocent legally. Pretending to know God's plan is extremely blasphemous, as is assuming anyone in authority is speaking for God. Christianity is unique in the agency of believers, and this whole line of argument seems to want to undo that. Calvin may have argued against Wesley, but when I look at that dialog I am struck by how in the little things they acknowledge the truth of the other one's argument. In the end Welsey matters more than Calvin, because where we don't know God's plan, we can act with the agency given us.
That internal battle is a rough one. I wrestle with it too. Supposed to forgive but they still want us dead.Heard yesterday that some on my old job think I need to "give it a rest".

Same here.It is healthier for your mind to let it go and move on, but I'm a person of bitterness too. Keep reminding those A-holes, remind them everyday what POS humans they are!
I think of all the contractors on some of my projects that had to get vaccinated to continue working there. Most of them did it, to keep their livelihood, and I don't fault them. 3 years later I walk onto those same job sites without ever having a Covid vaccination. FUCKING people!!!!!

I am aware of that and stated it as such.Just because "it's in a study bible" whatever that is, doesn't actually mean it's the actually part of the Bible.
What you have posted is foot notes and commentary written by someone else (probably recently) explaining their own interpretation of the Bible.
If you actually knew the bible and the scriptures you'd instantly recognize that page as NOT the scriptures but rather an opinion.
So as to your offer to direct people on where to take it up, perhaps name who wrote that study guide and from what book version and such and then we can see what we think of it.
Co-opting religions (including many times "Christianity") to help prop up the legitimacy of the government is pretty much one of the oldest tricks in the game of keeping the peasants and simple minded folks from rebelling against "their betters"...
I could point to passages, both old and new testament, that disprove your assertion.
I promise you, I can, and others here have already started.No, you can't.
All of the bible references relative to obedience to leaders is premised on the leaders being lawfully in the leadership role.
Given the Constitution is the high law of the land, anyone acting outside of the powers granted in the Constitution are not lawful leaders, and so are not covered by these references.
Your interpretation would by necessity mean Jesus was acting outside of God's command when he opposed the Sanhedrin and the Romans.
But he was not.
John MacArthur study Bible for me, but my usual book is just regular kjv. I've spent enough time reading old English to know what those words mean.I am aware of that and stated it as such.
Ask and you shall receive.

In my opinion its one of the most informative bibles I have ever seen. If you have never cracked open a study bible I suggest you give it a look.
Fucking-A right it's disrespectful...

Romans 13
New International Version
Submission to Governing Authorities
13 Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. 2 Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and you will be commended. 4 For the one in authority is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are God’s servants, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. 5 Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience.
6 This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God’s servants, who give their full time to governing. 7 Give to everyone what you owe them: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.

I was thinking it would be tampon tim and kameltoe for losing the election this badly.So… Who’s gonna commit suicide by shooting themselves in the back of the head, twice, this time…?
Better to be on our side even if we don’t personally win. Maybe we can pave the way so our kids will.That internal battle is a rough one. I wrestle with it too. Supposed to forgive but they still want us dead.
One of my new co-workers brought a beautiful black lab into work last week. Awesome dog.Never forget
Never let them forget
Never let anyone else forget
Make their actions a millstone around their necks and a scarlet letter that they will always be reminded of and never be able to hide.
At this point shaming them forever is about the only justice you are likely to get unless society is rebuilt from scratch.

Wonder how God would feel after another steal in 2024?"Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God"
There's some debate as to who actually came up with this. Most say it was Benjamin Franklin, other ascribe it to Thomas Jefferson. Regardless, I agree.
Sic semper tyrannis.
Wonder how God would feel after another steal in 2024?
I know a guy that gets up at 5 a.m. to read the Bible online and pray. When we talk politics, the conversation defaults into a Sunday School sermon, beganning with "You know whats behind this don't you? The Devil." And then here we go.Perhaps God might be wondering if the "good folks" have any backbone left and if they just want to roll over and let evil win without even a fight, why should he stop them from enjoying the consequences of their worship of the laws of man and the governments of man and their love of ease rather than the love of good?
