Mayor Frey and Governor Walz didn't knock a woman and a man to the ground, pepper spray an innocent man, beat him with the butt of their gun, and pull the trigger on a man who never drew his gun, was a US citizen, a nurse, with no record.
Don't even give me your Trump worship. Your worship of Trump has blinded your heart. You do not even know Jesus Christ though you claim to.
I named no names. But if you continue to worship Trump, you are the one on dangerous grounds. I have no desire to interact with you.I think you better be very careful of your false accusations about my salvation...you are treading on dangerous ground

Rethink that, it applies to human society and governanceThat passage of scripture is talking about governments of this world.........not the church.
Under the old covenant which was still in effect at that time, adverse circumstances were assumed to always be curses due to personal or familial sins. There wasn't much mercy to be had under the Law, until the new covenant. Jesus going around healing the sick and casting out demons and feeding the poor was demonstrating/manifesting His MERCY to loose/free those suffering the effects of the curse of the Law. Including enemies of Israel....Roman soldiers and tax collectors.Rethink that, it applies to human society and governance
Are those of the true church evil doers?
No, this is speaking to all people.
Christians can get caught up in the world, and align their minds to the things of this world, contrary to the direct commandments and guidelines in scripture. They will suffer the consequences, just like unbelievers, just that the consequences are not eternal death
Just like Jesus warnings here

2 And Jesus answering said unto them, “Suppose ye that these Galileans were sinners above all the other Galileans, because they suffered such things?
3 I tell you, nay; but unless ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
4 Or those eighteen upon whom the tower of Siloam fell and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all other men that dwelt in Jerusalem?
5 I tell you, nay; but unless ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.”
Yes, agree. But what of Christians, who are many, who work in governmental jobs with authority. They are charged with carrying out the laws of the United States.Under the old covenant which was still in effect at that time, adverse circumstances were assumed to always be curses due to personal or familial sins.

Well, now we have the new covenant established and the church, like Jesus, is supposed to manifest and demonstrate the mercy of the new covenant. Jesus didn't leave the church with the mandate to execute the curse of the Law. He has left that to governments of this world, which we are in the world but not OF it. The bible indicates we are to distinguish/discern and separate between the holy and the profane, not mix the two together.........mixing church and state is a mixing of holy and profane that is against the word of God. The affairs of this world, and judging them in due time, are HIS business, not ours. The church is not that kind of army.....our battles are spiritual and our weapons are not carnal but mighty in the Spirit. Our enemies aren't flesh and blood either, but are the powers and principalities that often unfortunately work through people. But the flesh is bloodthirsty and vengeful....should we heed the flesh or the Spirit? God says to avenge belongs to Him and we are to leave room for His wrath, as He sees fit. Or should we be like Catholicism and want to engage in the cruelties of "crusades" and forced conversions? What has happened to the church these days? How far has it fallen and forgotten its HOLY estate??
The real problem is all this is completely sanctioned by Trump's regime. We have an out-of-control paramilitary force loose on the streets and Donald couldn't care less what they do; pretty much the same situation as J6. It's not about law enforcement, we know Trump couldn't care less about law enforcement. It's all political, period.

I believe Christians may "work" in government, but that is not them "ministering"...that is just them doing their jobs and earning a living, hopefully lawfully and justly. I think we know a Christian policeman for example, who shoots a fleeing dangerous criminal is not "ministering". (And don't be surprised if the Lord gets them out of that job in time.) This is where we must distinguish/discern/separate between the holy and the profane. It is the government body itself that is God's "minister" to make Laws and execute justice (as scripture says Law is for the UNrighteous) but government is not a minister of the new covenant. The church body is minister of the new covenant. And separate they need to remain.Yes, agree. But what of Christians, who are many, who work in governmental jobs with authority. They are charged with carrying out the laws of the United States.
Romans 13:4
For he is God’s minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God’s minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil.
Romans 13
Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. 2 Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will [a]bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same. 4 For he is God’s minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God’s minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil. 5 Therefore you must be subject, not only because of wrath but also for conscience’ sake. 6 For because of this you also pay taxes, for they are God’s ministers attending continually to this very thing. 7 Render therefore to all their due: taxes to whom taxes are due, customs to whom customs, fear to whom fear, honor to whom honor.
1 Peter 2
13 Therefore submit yourselves to every [c]ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake, whether to the king as supreme, 14 or to governors, as to those who are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and for the praise of those who do good. 15 For this is the will of God, that by doing good you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men— 16 as free, yet not using liberty as a cloak for [d]vice, but as bondservants of God. 17 Honor all people. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.
Those with TDS often invoke this refrain because they have no policy argument so retreat to Ad Homenim. Why wouldn't we support one who represents the policies we prefer?I'm not worshipping Trump.
I think if someone delves so low as to claim we worship Trump because we are Conservatives who aren't aligned with the Satanic Left,they are telling us their faith is the one lacking.Those with TDS often invoke this refrain because they have no policy argument so retreat to Ad Homenim.

Democracy. 2024 election was consequential in that the will of the people who want to restore law and order are ascendant. This is what it looks like when the losers in the minority don't respect democracy. Their campaign continues after the election into lawlessness.
The Left, along with the global elite and Deep State are the threats to democracy. They are willing to fight to the death in -21F temperatures to keep criminals on the street. So be it. Amen and Amen. If they want civil war, they got it!!!
Because their position is so evil, all they can do, rather than admit defeat, is to attack us personally. We worship Trump, they say. What kind of childish ploy is this shaming language? Oh no, I don't worship Trump. I'll prove it. I'll give up on the policy positions that won the 2024 election. No. The winning majority is not going to concede - nor should we.
Speaking of communists and socialists.I'm not worshipping Trump.
But I do believe in law and order. The leftists and Antifa are behind these protests. The leaders get paid big bucks and the organizations paying them are Communists and Socialists.
The problem is because the sanctuary cities aren't working with ICE. They create the chaos...not ICE.Speaking of communists and socialists.

Encrypted chats show activists tracked ICE agents using a sophisticated database before the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. They then used it to mobilize agitators.www.foxnews.com
