God speaking about king David: “I will be his father, and he will be my son. When he does wrong, I will punish him with a rod wielded by men, with flogging inflicted by human hands.”
I have cherry picked this out of Biblical text, but it seems to advocate rising up against your leaders if they are doing wrong.
Anyone who says the Bible says to obey government o matter what is a Liar and a fool. The Bible never tells people to lay down to evil
The Bible tells you to not be a doormat and yet far too many “pastors” and “preachers” simply gloss over the fact. My denomination has a gigantic problem with pedophiles in the church because we’ve preached ourselves in to doormats.
Lol. Book of Daniel?
Please list all the famous people who says Biden is a legitimate president. We want to see.
I didn’t intend for my post to mean Biden is legitimate. He’s not.
The Bible is interesting in that it is very anti government. God warned Israel about it in 1 Samuel 8, and they still wanted a king. They fell apart after kings were put in place and haven’t recovered. Jesus was anti government despite “popular” interpretations of his preaching.
God is Israel's invisible king. God predicted that they will demand a human king. God told them about the disadvantages of their demands. But they don't want an invisible king. God gave them what they wanted. It later evolved into a complex system of government. Before there was a king, there were prophets, priests, judges, leaders, etc. established by God. Each has their own functions. They don't have taxes. They only have tithes on certain occasions. The government seems nonexistent. The leaders operate when the situation calls for it. For God, this is ideal but not for man.
Read the book of Daniel and get back to me.
Biden isn't king David.
God moves when His people repent fully and rise up at His commend to meet their oppressors.
See several examples in Judges.
There are even times when God sends an angel to deliver His people.
That said - God will indeed chasten His people should they rise up against His anointed and His servants.
King David himself would not touch King Saul. David had the right attitude.
When David disgraced himself, Absalom rebelled against his own father, and had popular support. Divine Providence defeated this popular rebellion, and David was restored to his throne.
Biden isn't even a legitimate king or president.
