If someone is not serving others then he can't rule them as a Christian.
Jesus placed all others before himself, up to dying. So did his apostles (most of whom were martyrd) and a large number of early disciples. and a large number of missionaries, and a large number of parents and church leaders and common every day folk. Did they all (except Jesus) do it perfectly? Of course not, but they (and we) are called to do their best at it.
me->Christianity and tyranny are mutually exclusive concepts.
I would think that history would tend to disagree with your observation..... strongly.
Let me quote myself from the prior post:
If someone is a behaving as a tyrant then you can bet that they are not a Christian as they are violating Gods word by being a tyrant.
A person cannot be a tyrant and be a Christian. the concepts are mutually exclusive. A man can only have one master. He either serves God or he serves himself. Tyrants serve themselves. Christians serve God (and in that service serve the people they are accountable for).
Can you give me a few examples of "benevolent" (non-tyranical) Christian "rulers"?
Jesus, David, Solomon, George Washington and the Founding Fathers (sounds like a rock group of the fifties). History is full of Christian leaders who did well for their people and it's full of leaders who called themselves Christian but acted anti-Christ. You have to look at their words AND their actions to see if they were truly Christian.
All your objections still point out that you don't understand.
God Bless OWK and open his eyes to your truth.

Jesus was not a political leader in any sense of the word.
David, and Solomon were tyrants.
And George Washington was a Deist.
