Just go back and read my post again. More carefully this time.Yea, right! Fact is, you are wrong but are too prideful to admit it. We ARE commanded to submit to governing authorities as Roman 13:1 explicitly says.

Why aren't you posting the entire sentence? You've taken it out of context which completely changes my meaning.

More than one thing can be true at the same time.Bingo.
And there is Acts 5:29 as final arbiter.
But Peter and the apostles answered, “We must obey God rather than men.

Goodwin's law. Now, who is taking Scripture (Romans 13) out of context. The command to obey civilian government is obviously not absolute but given the default condition of them being agents of justice - not injustice.Really?
the Nazi
Apply Romans 13 and say yes ?
No, you use Acts 5:29 as your final arbiter.

Acts 12:22-23
22 They shouted, “This is the voice of a god, not of a man.”
23 Immediately, because Herod did not give praise to God, an angel of the Lord struck him down, and he was eaten by worms and died.

(Better be careful about politicians being shown as Jesus Christ.)
So . its known as hyprocrisy . cause we both know if obama , if biden
now let us all remember that would even include the men that lead them churches .Bingo.
And there is Acts 5:29 as final arbiter.
But Peter and the apostles answered, “We must obey God rather than men.
Now who was it the apostels were saying this too . THE VERY LEADERS of THE VERY TEMPLE IN JERUSALEM .Really?
Let's have a look
Acts 5:29 - But Peter and the apostles answered, “We must obey God rather than men.
During the Nazi occupation of my country in WW2 the Nazi's had this habit (called razzia's) to lock a large block of houses and then knocking on each door with the question : do you hide Jews ?
What do you do as Christian when you hide them ?
Apply Romans 13 and say yes ?
No, you use Acts 5:29 as your final arbiter.
Now who was it the apostels were saying this too . THE VERY LEADERS of THE VERY TEMPLE IN JERUSALEM .
Kinda kicks the ol YA GOTTA JUST SIT AND DO whatever YA LEADERS SAY right in the ol behind .
Thems were THE HIGH priest and very leaders of the people The apostels told that too .
SO the next time someone says
HEY if my church , its pope and its vatican
OR the touch not Gods annointed protestant realm , says YA GOTTA DO WHAT WE SAY .
I SAY , NOT WHEN IT CONTRADICTS GOD I DONT and not only do i not have too
I AINT GONNA DO IT no matter the cost to me .
So . its known as hyprocrisy . cause we both know if obama , if biden
if the left did the same thing , you had well warned .
.....you have a serious problem not understanding how that scripture relates to Trump's behaviour (Posting himself as Jesus)......And what is your point?
what many are not taking heed to is ,Give to Caesar what is Caesar's was about paying your taxes and obeying the laws, nothing more. Submit to the governing authorities is not a command or instruction for the church to try and change those authorities. There are always plenty of people of the world engaged in activism.
Sure, we are to do justice.....act justly, fairly, equitably, honestly....do what is right. That does not equate to political activism.
