Waning understanding
We have the video on Romans 13 on YouTube https://youtu.be/1SEMYx6affo
The Holy Hauler said "I think you need to read study this subject a bit more deeper."
So, though his heart may be in the right place there is clearly a mountain of misunderstanding of scripture in his mind. The resulting confusion molds his mind and thinking so that his teachings contradicts Christ's teachings.
The desire to know the truth may twist and distort our perception creating a cognitive dissonance when evidence is presented that contradicts what we have accepted as true.
This unwillingness to change our thinking is not faith in the truth but faith in an image of truth we have imagined which is idolatry. In other words it is an unwillingness to repent.
I wrote a reply to him:
Have you read the free book "The Higher Liberty" that I have written on the subject which we offer online?
We go through this subject in great detail challenging others who had to twist the words to create a false gospel that has deceived the whole world that they might believe a lie. This why Jesus himself warns that many will think they are followers of Christ but actually do not even know him and are workers of iniquity.
The false interpretation of Romans 13 by the modern Church that has lead people to go to rulers who call themselves benefactors but who exercise authority one over the other to provide benefits through covetous practices that has brought the whole world back in the bondage of Egypt.
I think you all need to read more but also repent and seek the kingdom of God and his righteousness rather than the false religion and self righteousness that is bringing world to its destruction... I will use your comment and your video to help those who want to seek the kingdom of God and his righteousness so that they can overcome the false teachings that have caused such confusion. I already responded to one of your videos.
I wrote him on his YouTube:
"Man has ordained government. The people who wanted Saul as a king had already rejected God.[1] They got Saul and a series of Kings who did what Samuel said would happen. We were told not to go back into bondage of Egypt but all of Australia has gone back into the bondage of Egypt which we are told not to do. You seem to have missed that there is another King, one Jesus[2], who picked seventy people like Moses did. Where are your seventy?[3] Your government does not look after the poor but are the rulers who call themselves benefactors[4] but who exercise authority one over the other to provide benefits through covetous practices[5] that has brought the whole world back in the bondage of Egypt. Yes I think you need to study a lot more as you said to me after seeing one video." https://youtu.be/1SEMYx6affo
When men like Cain, Nimrod, Pharaoh and Caesar create governments they are rejecting God. God allows that because as Samuel[1] says those governments will be the minister of God and punish the people for their rejection of God. The people want a ruler because they are slothful in the ways of God which brings them under tribute. And those rulers will take and take and take to punish you for your sloth.
God gave you choice, freedom, and liberty under God but the people who choose to give the power of choice to rulers is rejecting the way of God. If they empower that man created government to take from their neighbor so that they can gain benefits they are engaging in the very covetous practices we were warned about by the Apostles would turn us into a thing, merchandise.[6]
