Here is the verifying Scripture …

Hebrews 13:
[1] Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.

Is Iran ordained of God ?

BTW, it's Romans 13, not Hebrews 13.

How many gods are there?
Ephesians 4:4-6 -There is one body and one Spirit, just as also you were called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in all.

And

1 Corinthians 4:4 - in whose case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

Are you Gnostic?

So Iranians don't have a duty to their government?
Your bio says you hail from Georgia but your question indicates you have no grasp of the American experiment, the Biblical justification the Founding Fathers used to justify Independence from Britain.

For some agenda related reason, you are conflating our need for government, in general, from foolish loyalty to a form that doesn’t meet those needs. A Muslim Apologist? Compare to food. Realizing some food doesn’t meet all your nutritional needs is no reason to abandon all food; it’s a reason to change to forms of food that meet what they body requires.

Never, I'm born again from above by the power of God through the Grace of God through the Faith in Jesus Christ. I posted two bible scriptures. Read your bible please.
Ok well I did read it.
I found your 2nd bible verse in 2 Corinthians 4:4, not 1 Corinthians

So you never actually answered my question in your words. How many Gods are there?

And in 2 Corinthians 4:4 who do you think is "the god of this world"?

Can you please tell me in your own words?
Because I'm confused. I don't know why your being so difficult and not explain yourself in your own words.

To me it looks like your gnostic as they believe in multiple gods, that Yahweh is a lesser God of this world who deceives and blinds us, and that there is another greater God.

The first text you posted speaks of one God but the second text you posted speaks of another God. I'm confused

So I ask again to please answer in your own words

I still haven't seen a coherent and comprehensive rationale for this war coming from this administration. Why now? What changed that made this necessary? What are our objectives?

Which was all of them. Iran was the bully in the neighborhood. Nobody wanted a nuclear Iran.
True, Iran has few fans, few friends in the world, even China and Russia aren't really helping them much.

But our goals in Iran are also a bit like vague and unclear at this point.

The President has said his objective is NOT to make a "democracy" in Iran. So what is he bombing them for then?

Trump tells CNN he’s not worried whether Iran becomes a democratic state

Judge rightly.
'god' is not always the LORD GOD who made the heaven and the earth in scripture.

Jesus quoted this verse and called them 'gods' to whom the word of GOD came.
34 Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your law, ‘I said, “You are gods” ’?
35 If He called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken),


31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone Him. 32 Jesus answered them, “Many good works I have shown you from My Father. For which of those works do you stone Me?”

33 The Jews answered Him, saying, “For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy, and because You, being a Man, make Yourself God.”

34 Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your law, ‘I said, “You are gods” ’? 35 If He called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken), 36 do you say of Him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’? 37 If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me; 38 but if I do, though you do not believe Me, believe the works, that you may know and [f]believe that the Father is in Me, and I in Him.” 39 Therefore they sought again to seize Him, but He escaped out of their hand.

Ok then so who is the God of this world?
Maybe Satan? He is also referred to as the prince of this world. So maybe its Satan that is being referred to as the God of this world in 2 Corinthians 4:4?
