Your Duties as Man
« on: November 01, 2008, 08:59:18 PM »
Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and he will commend you. For he is God's servant to do you good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword for nothing. He is God's servant, an agent of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also because of conscience. This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God's servants, who give their full time to governing. Give everyone what you owe him: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.

--Romans 13:1-7

Our God is a God of Order, a God of Law, a God of Judgment.

Our God is not a God of Rebellion.

For what does he need to Rebel?

What does the Divine Ruler of the Entire Universe, who organized the very heavens, need to fight for?

Two Words Describe Him:    I    AM

What he wants shall be mandated, by His Divine Will. As there is no creature (seen or unseen) that escapes His Ever-Knowing, Ever-Watching Eyes.

Our God is  a God of Order, Of Power, Of Glory, Of Authority, Of Might.

Who Rebelled against God? Was it not Lucifer and his fallen angels? And by their rebellion, lost contact and grace with The Most High. And their rebellion was crushed by the Power of the Most High.
