Just more bullshit from the apologists
Romans 13 says God appoints government and to obey it
it does NOT specify not to obey it if the government goes bad
and who is to decide if government is good or bad?
You?
God appointed the government, not you.
The truth is not in the Bible
No one has any authority over another
God is a meme being used to establish tyranny
all governments are tyrannical
go disobey any law in any government at any time in history and see what happens
tyranny happens because the state has a monopoly on force and you are not even allowed to resist even for failure to appear or failure to pay
SO WILL YOU CHRISTIANS PLEASE SHUT THE HELL UP
YOUR RELIGION IS TYRANNY AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77998499 You have a fundamental misunderstanding of Christianity and the verses in the OP video.
For example, see how government is identified in Romans 13:3. See the conditions that determine it in that verse. If I call myself "government", does that make me so? Can anyone just call themselves "government" and it is so, like how some leftists lie and say they are a woman when they are not?
See 1 Samuel 8. You will see how the people don't want God and want tyranny, but God warns them against it, but the people still rather have a tyranny rather than trust in God.
The reality is opposite of your claim. The more a people trusts in God, the more free they are. The less they trust in God, they more they beg for tyranny. This "covid" scamdemic has brought this into light! You see Christian ommunities that trust in God living freely while the Godless worship tyrants.
"Man will ultimately be governed by God or by tyrants." -
Benjamin Franklin
of course objectively reading it is not good enough
they even say you have to be in some holy spirit type of mind to understand it - and what this means you must be possessed by some other thing to read god's word
so that means the all powerful god has trouble talking to his creation, god just can't communicate properlyanother game preachers play is cherry picking the verses"we'll just skip over all this blood and gore and read some stuff people like to hear"
Psalms 136-140: Bash babies' heads against rocks for god!no sorry Christian, Romans 13 says what Romans 13 says:
Romans 13
Submission to Authorities
1Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which is from God. The authorities that exist have been appointed by God. 2Consequently, whoever resists authority is opposing what God has set in place, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves.
3For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Do you want to be unafraid of the one in authority? Then do what is right, and you will have his approval. 4For he is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not carry the sword in vain. He is God’s servant, an agent of retribution to the wrongdoer.
5Therefore it is necessary to submit to authority, not only to avoid punishment, but also as a matter of conscience. 6This is also why you pay taxes. For the authorities are God’s servants, who devote themselves to their work. 7Pay everyone what you owe him: taxes to whom taxes are due, revenue to whom revenue is due, respect to whom respect is due, honor to whom honor is due."

It should be obvious the government wrote Romans 13 not some god
The government wants you to be submissive and pay taxes
that is exactly what a slave is taught
and this verse:
"For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad."
God appointed bad people who terrorize you
that is what this damned book says
read it and weep Christian, you are a hopelessly duped slaveYou are a Liar! Post it all.
