"Membership in the family of God is neither inconsequential or something to be casually ignored. The church is God's agenda for the world. Jesus said, "I will build my church, and all the powers of hell will not conquer it." The church is indestructable and will exist for eternity. It will outlive this universe, and so will your role in it."

- Rick Warren
I Thought This Was Appropriate

Remind your people to submit to the government and its officers. They should be obedient, always ready to do what is good. They must not speak evil of anyone, and they must avoid quarreling. Instead, they should be gentle and show true humility to everyone.
-- Titus 3:1 & 2 (NLT)

But Paul had no idea of how bad Obama was going to be! Paul is not talking about fascist, socialist Muslims who were born in Kenya and are just like Hitler and who might be the antichrist! (I hope everybody knows I am joking here).

So do we submit to the written law of the nation, the Constitution and Declaration of Independence? Or the people who are oath-bound to defend these laws?

My reading of these laws shows that it is a right and duty to throw off a Government that evinces a design to reduce men under absolute Despotism, and provide new Guards for future security.
