Hi Largeli,

I thought that thread you put up about the worlds worst religion would of been a great topic for discussion, and wanted to reply however I see that thread has been deleted from this board.

One of the main points I walked away with after watching the video you put up was that the lie will not out live the truth, of course I think of that in terms of Gods truth.

One of Gods truths is that He put these leaders in authority over us, we all know everything is corrupt even our politicians and worst we ourselves also.

Anyways, watching that video just makes me long for the reign of Christ.


God bless.  ;)

Rick / Largeli -

Ultimately Our Father and Jesus Christ are responsible for all; and I am wondering what we are to do, if anything, seeing The Truth of the tyranny in the world.

We suffer through it all with our ongoing prayers to Our Saviour; in frustration and the hope of the salvation of all.

We are in the world but not of the world - and I sometimes desire to just leave - but we cannot do this.

Regards.

George.

Hi George,

I’m not sure if you went to the you tube link that Largeli had up, ( the worlds most dangerous religion )  if not ,it shows just how corrupt all the governments of the world are including our own.

It tells the truth of what God says about carnal minded humanity which would of been a good discussion but for unknown reasons to me Largeli’s thread went m.i.a.


I understand as you say ultimately of is of God and I’ll go further and say it is God who puts such in authority over us.
 
I too wonder what we are to do, I guess we should obey the laws of our nation until they go against the law of God,  I wonder how God feels about the thousands who die in all these wars we are fighting in the name of spreading democracy ? Seems to me all its doing is spreading death and destruction to millions of people being made in the image of God.  :(  >:(


God bless.

Hi Rick,

Just my personal take on the issue of complying with secular laws.
Since there is no penalty as yet, I don't register or vote. Haven't for decades...
Didn't vote when I was an employee of a Republican administration...just kept my own counsel.

My reasoning is simple even if incorrect.
The ballot is not properly organized.
It should list the political parties and their candidates in order and then near the bottom
 they should have a box marked "none of the above". That would tend to keep candidates more humble.

Why should I be forced to choose between two or more unqualified candidates?
Why should I be forced to choose the "lesser of two evils"?

The real problem with the way it is now done is that the winning candidate assumes that they have the authority from the majority of the people to carry out their programs. When in fact the winner often received 30 percent of the eligible votes while the loser received 28 percent and no one paid any attention to the 42 percent who refused to vote for either of two candidates.

So in effect the winner did not please 70 percent of the voters and yet was installed into the office of responsibility and power.

The way it is done leaves the impression that the voting public is happy with the result. Parties fight it out tooth and nail and then "unify" and shake hands until the next campaign when the dirty tactics start all over again. Even wonder why there are no instructions in scripture about how to vote to please God?

It is also my impression that believers don't have anything to say about the result in the first place.
God will motivate the vote anyway HE pleases to achieve the result that fits into HIS plan.

So as members of the Kingdom of God isn't that where our loyalties should remain. We are just visitors to the political location we happen to be born into. Our true citizenship is in heaven...

Hi Bob,

I echo the same thoughts on voting too, its just another deception like everything else under heaven.


Besides we are not to be apart of this world and personally I don’t want to be, let the dead vote for the dead.

God bless.
