>>ROMANS 13:1-5
- but MEANT just TO COMPLEMENT only...
- FOR A brief period of TIME [>>>T#098] only ----
- HIS SOVEREIGNTY ----
- IN DEALING WITH MANKIND!
>>v.1 ~ ESTABLISHED by GOD for all of mankind
- to reckon with in governments' political affairs (>>John 19:10-11)
- including for its regulatory functions OVER business & religious affairs
- when & because our business & religious LEADERS submitted their organizations' registration & permits for approval to operate as such!
>>v.2a ~ REBELLING against HUMAN GOVERNANCES
- is rebelling against GOD!
>>v.2b ~ EVERY DISOBEDIENCE TO EVERY RULE & REGULATION
- of ALL HUMAN ORGANIZATIONS
- brings about punishment
- that GOD considers as self-inflicted!!
>>v.3 ~ Governing OFFICIALS are meant by GOD
- to restrain evil IN HIS BEHALF!
- (When they don't
THEY are individually
- & not group - organizationally - partily
accountable to GOD!)
>>2nd Corinthians 5:10
>>2nd Corinthians 5:10
>>v.4a ~ Governing OFFICIALS meant BY GOD
- to promote public good!
>>v.4b ~ Governing OFFICIALS are ORDAINED BY GOD
- to punish their membership / citizenry
- every time they singly or collectively break their laws!
- IF THEY don't or are not consistent with implementing their ordination to punish them,
- THEY are just as accountable as them to GOD!
>>v.5 ~ SUBMISSION TO GOVERNING LAWS & OFFICIALS
- is obedience to GOD!
>>1st Peter 3:13-15 ~ “And who is he who will harm you, if you be followers of that which is good?
you should be happy
and not be
afraid of the terror they bring,
nor be troubled.
But and if you suffer
for righteousness’ sake,
for righteousness’ sake,
you should be happy
and not be
afraid of the terror they bring,
nor be troubled.
- BUT set firmly THE LORD GOD in your hearts
- and be ready always to give an answer to every man
- who asks you a reason of THE HOPE WHO is in you
- >>>T#029
- [after you have been AMNESTIED!]
- with meekness and fear,
- having a good conscience,
- that whereas they speak evil of you as of evil doers,
- they may be ashamed who falsely accuse
- your good testimony in THE CHRIST!”
>>1stTimothy 1:1 ~ “From Paul, an apostle of JESUS THE CHRIST by the command of GOD our SAVIOUR and THE LORD JESUS THE CHRIST, OUR HOPE,
”[not any one of these
religious, businessmen,
philanthropists,
politicians and governing
officials
religious, businessmen,
philanthropists,
politicians and governing
officials
can be our HOPE,
- no matter what their advocacies/programs are
- >>Jeremiah 10:23
- nor has been their track record of performances!!!]
I invite you all to a cursory reading of
under what circumstances,
how & what man then
was told to expect by their
insistence on
their own rule
to replace
that of HIS !!!!
[monarchy vs. theocracy]

>>1st Samuel 8:1-22
- and eventually while in these days of imminence of THE RAPTURE
- make up your mind what your attitude should be
- towards our *governing officials
- as well as our **respective religious leaders among us
- including the ***businessmen and their customers around us
- who are all competing with each other to keep their respective RULES & INFLUENCES
- increasing over us
- jointly, severally,
- at times independently of each other
- for "our good" allegedly
- but more frequently against our interests --
- they ally with each other at their mutual interests
- ALL THE TIME setting aside GOD's THEOCRACY,
- that we
unmindfully,
- have abandoned THEOCRACY
- when our choices are just confined to
- our political and business and religious LEADERS' strategies
- so that despite and notwithstanding their strategies,
we can be prepared to meet
our CREATOR
our CREATOR
as rightly as we
ought to NOW(!)
instead of --- GOD forbids ---
we meet HIM as
JUDGE LATER!!!
- Let us not lose sight of the fact we all:
government officials,
ordinary citizens,
religious leaders, members of
the different sects, religions,
churches, political parties,
businessmen and society,
netizens in general
ordinary citizens,
religious leaders, members of
the different sects, religions,
churches, political parties,
businessmen and society,
netizens in general
- can find either relief or grief ONLY
- by our reckoning with >>2nd Corinthians 5:1-10
- starting NOW(!)
- before the truths therein will confront us all without escape!
ANY & ALL GROUP
ATTEMPTS & CHANGE
TO THEOCRACY
FROM ANY FORM
OF GOVERNMENT
FROM ANY FORM
OF GOVERNMENT
or ORGANIZATION
- whether from MONARCHY, COMMUNISM, DEMOCRACY or any ISM variation thereof ….. including FEDERALism, CONSUMERism, etc....
- will be of no avail to us
- as history has repeatedly and consistently
- showed us
- by what happened to all the efforts of those most sincerely determined and already
- influential PRO-GOD
- yet still ORGANIZATIONS!
THEOCRACY
in us individually
is to render us individually
as the salt of the earth
[effective only as we are
thinly applied scattered]
as the light of the world
[to shine scattered in spontaneity
without advance notice]
(>>Matthew 5:13-16)
---- via our
answer to
THE CHRIST's CALL
for us to be
OVERCOMERS

- THE GOOD NEWS therefore is:
- THERE IS THIS INVITATION BY HIM
- TO GET JUDGED
- WITH HIS WORD
- INDIVIDUALLY NOW(!)
- (>>1st Peter 4:17)
to escape GOD’s
personal wrath
HE expressed in
>>1st Samuel 8:5-7!
personal wrath
HE expressed in
>>1st Samuel 8:5-7!
- This is just like resolving to plead guilty in open court
- while THE MOMENT of THE RAPTURE is still imminent
- to ask for a chamber meeting with our JUDGE NOW(!)
before THE JUDGMENT
for ETERNITY

for ETERNITY
https://umpg.blogspot.com/2012/09/t008-grade-vi-eternal-judgment.html
- for them who
have notbelievedin HIS LORDSHIP & CHRISTHOOD
- to give way to timeless ETERNITY
- when the good and the bad are only then forever separated!!!!
