After Listening to the March 27 2020 Generations podcast with Kevin Swanson it seems that his church out in Elizabeth Colorado along with his guest Scott Brown who is the director of the National Center of Family Integrated Churches will comply with the lock downs imposed on them by their respective states...for the time being. Unlike other churches who will comply and likely will never revolt should certain local governors decide to test the water and unleash the inner tyrant Swanson and Brown are being vigilant regarding the civil magistrate.
Romans 13: 1-7 calls on Christian believers to submit to the civil magistrate and reminding them that they are indeed ordained by God. We indeed do that for as long as they are doing things that are truly God honoring and dont seek to trample if not downright steal the peoples freedoms liberties their children or property. Certain people that are serving in government may indeed be either tempted or have planed a strategy already to seize permanent power.
Their will always will be people that will challenge the first ten amendments to our U.S. Constitution.
On my personal Facebook I made this confession;
Be glad I am not President of the USA. I would not only order a national lockdown but I would keep America in lock down for a very long time for as long as I could.
Maybe then people will realize I have been self isolating myself ALL MY LIFE!!!! I could finally unleash my inner monster at last.
Sure I may have scared my friends off a bit but let it serve as an omen to us all. People are NOT BASICALLY GOOD...contrary to what the late Anne Frank said. Her own death at the hands of the Jew hating Hitler loyal Nazis prove otherwise. If I had the money and the status that many of our political leaders journalists and entertainers have; I would be acting no different than they are. Sure I might have my causes and do good in certain areas but I think I would allow my dysfunctions get the best of me if knew I could get away with them. May I also remind you that our own progressives back in the late 1930s and early 40s actually had Hitlers back...including The Gray Lady herself...The New York Times.
Couple that with my dealings with certain people who misunderstood and decided that they wanted nothing to do with me and just bullied and shunned me it really does screw up your ego dont think otherwise. It makes me feed on what my friend Sparky calls feeding the Bad Wolf (partly inspired by a story arc in the Doctor Who series and partly inspired by my Alma maters (Colorado State University-Pueblo) mascot the Thunderwolf).
But by the Grace of God I have been placed among the serfs" and as such I know what can happen to such a person. So did our founders.
Respected Bible teach John MacArthur takes Romans 13: 1-7 so literally he would roll over and let the government do what it likes even if its downright evil. The first ten amendments to our U.S. Constitution is not a statement to us but rather to our government regarding what they cant do to the people.
The First Amendment says that government cant establish a state church but cant prohibit the church from speaking either...in spite of certain progressives (especially calling themselves Freethinkers Atheists etc; who really are at war with God himself) twisting its language and using Thomas Jeffersons Danbury Baptist letter in which they insert that into the First Amendment. It also calls for a free press which the Democrat Party press machine hides behind to its advantage. Still the importance of free speech and free exchange of ideals is promoted here and our government would love to stifle that.
The Second Amendment talks about a well regulated militia needed to protect the free state and of course the right to keep and bare arms shall not be infringed.
The Third Amendment declares that property owners have to right to deny any soldier living in their homes at any time including a time of war. Now what if that soldier wants to take your daughter and marry her even if she does not really love this soldier as the soldier uses her for his own sexual gratification. Would someone like a MacArthur allow for this? Many others would object big time.
The Fourth Amendment declares that government can not search a persons private property unless they are allowed in the house by the owner or if they get a search warrant by the court.
The later six commandments of the Ten Commandments tell Jews and Christians alike not to steal covet and murder. All these commandments in part inspired our U.S. Constitution as God given rights. The first four commandments deal with the believer and God and that is also key in self governance for its God that holds us accountable for our actions.
Our country needs to be run by people that fear God or have a fear of the Law of God. Without either/or our country will be run by people who will indeed try to take the place of God and either try to better him or worse abuse other peoples property and liberties. We must keep an eye on our leaders during the COVID-19 crisis and make sure they dont make an attempt to steal the liberty and freedom that we still have.
