First of all, I'm not screaming, I'm having a conversation.
Secondly, I wouldn't say God LIKES leaders to be arrogant. I simply said God puts them in their place and removes them from their place.
Thirdly, no, I'm not using inflammatory rhetoric to judge a consumer base I'm part of, I'm just meditating on and thinking about and considering some verses and bringing them into my here and now. I can't help it if my meditations inflame you.
Lastly, whether it were or were not my preference to let God seat and unseat rulers, my preference wouldn't change the fact that He is the one who does it. I happen to believe the verse.
Your opinions don't inflame me. I'm simply pointing out what your rhetoric says about you and about God.
If a leader is arrogant, etc...according to your belief that you let God alone seat leaders, then God seated those leaders that are arrogant, etc... And as for Trump, he's still seated and shall be re-elected in November, God willing. And if our votes have anything to do with it.
Secondly, judging the consumer base, which is what you've done while imparting scripture as a foundation, is indicting you as a consumer as well as those you think to cast into the light of being responsible for the sweat shops and slave labor, that are responsible for consumer goods.
What your rhetoric is missing however, is your failure to take responsibility for that. And this is because you refuse to vote. That's a cop out, in my view. Claiming God seats leaders over us and that's good enough for you, not a direct quote but extrapolated from your words, is a cop out. God sets them, I'm not going to vote, I just can't, is rubbish.
You believe the verse about God seating those in power over us, which would have to include every bloody savage dictator in the history of the world, while ignoring the verses about voting. One of which I have posted prior.
Failing to vote means you're responsible for the ongoing whatever it is you criticize in America's free society. Because you don't vote in those who would actively be responsible as your representative, to change things.
Oh, but that's God's job, right? That's what your, it's God's responsibility to seat leaders, is also saying. This means, everything you wish to meditate on as what is wrong in the society you participate in, is God's doing. His sovereign will. Because you do not think you need do anything but meditate on what is, cast aspersions on what is, judge consumers for consuming goods and services provided through slave labor and sweat shops, etc...
The liberal talking points you've posted here are old. They're old because they're repeated and for years. They're repeated for years because they're given a lot of talk but no action by those who would prefer to meditate about what is wrong in society, pick your subject, while coping out when it comes to how to personally effect change. Refusing to vote for change to occur is an indicator, the speaker is fine with how things are. They just like to vent and abdicate responsibility for being part of the problem.
And such people, like yourself, always put the responsibility for change on someone else.
You consume what you claim comes from slave labor and sweat shops. Not all things do, by the way. You refuse to vote to change things, because you think God is solely responsible, which is the case when you refuse to vote, for seating the leadership that is currently in power while sweat shops and slave labor remain an issue.
I don't think you've thought through what you're saying. And to cut it off before it posts, that's not an inflamed response either. Rather, it is years of experience as a political activist encountering rhetoric that carps, blames everyone else, and does nothing of its own volition to make a difference. Leaving it up to everyone else, including God, is weak. You get the government and the society you don't care to change.
Enjoy.
