I so much appreciate everyone's comments to this subject. I continue to question exactly how I should allow those verse to impact my life today as an American. But I think about it a lot.
I believe these verses that talk about our relationship to the local government are directly connected to chapter 12, and are a continuation of what Paul said in verse 1 and 2 of that chapter.....
to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. 2 And do not be conformed to this world
I once read, "If we could make America into the very best nation in the world, the most pleasant place to live, the place where wealth would be most common, it would be the perfect place to die and go to hel l from."
I don't know if those words are way off-base or not.
Please continue to share your thoughts............................
