The primary is over and we cannot go back, but must continue to press in. I have said this many times, but I am aware that many in the church still don’t understand this basic principle.
The Lord has three institutions. One is the church, another is the family, and another is Government.
The church is to blame for the problem in the Government area because somehow we believed a lie that started around 1919. It is an agenda from people like Karl Marx and Antonio Gramsci (an Italian philosopher.)
They said the only way to make America a socialist country is to erode it from within. They focused on destroying the Judeo Christian Values and the Family Structure. Would you say they’ve reached their goals?
One of the ways they have reached these goals to destroy America from within was to convince the church to stay out of politics. Jesus constantly talked to the politicians of His day. God set up Government to protect His people.
Question: “What does the Bible say about government?”
Answer: The Bible speaks very clearly about the relationship between the believer and the government. We are to obey governmental authorities, and the government is to treat us justly and fairly. Even when the government does not live up to its role, we are still to live up to ours. Finally, when the government asks us to do something that is in direct disobedience to God’s Word, we are to disobey the government in faithful confidence of the Lord’s power to protect us.
Whether the Bible uses the terms “master,” “ruler,” “government,” or any other name for an established authority, the instruction is always the same – obey. We must remember that God created the authorities ruling over us just as He created us. As Paul wrote to the Romans, “Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves” (Romans 13:1-2). Peter wrote, “Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every authority instituted among men: whether to the king, as the supreme authority, or to governors, who are sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to commend those who do right” (1 Peter 2:13-14). Both Peter and Paul also remind slaves repeatedly to be obedient to their masters for the same reasons (Ephesians 6:5-8; Colossians 3:22-25; 1 Timothy 6:1-2; 1 Peter 2:18-20; Titus 2:9-11).
