THEREFORE, IT IS NECESSARY
TO
SUBMIT TO THE AUTHORITIES,
NOT
ONLY BECAUSE OF POSSIBLE PUNISHMENT
BUT
ALSO BECAUSE OF CONSCIENCE.
6
This is also why you pay taxes,
For
the Authorities are God's Servants,
Who
give their full time to Governing.
(Romans
13:5, 6)
The
apostle Paul admonishes us
To
Submit to Governing Authorities.
While
this is true in many respects,
It
is Not True
When
the Authorities require that we do
That
which is Against God and His Word.
What
is against God and His Word
Sends
those who do so to Hell,
And
God does not want us in Hell
By
Obeying Governing Authorities;
That
would be Absurd.
John
the Baptist had to tell the Governing Authority
That
it was not Right, before God, to have his brothers wife.
Christ
Jesus had to tell the Governing Authorities
That
they were Not Right before God and His Word.
As
Christians, our First Duty
Is
Obedience to the TRUTH,
GODS
TRUTH.
