Jesus and Paul didn’t say much about voting. In fact, I got the feeling they both just saw the government as a brute force to be dealt with and used to their advantage (i.e. Paul appealing to Caesar).

“Jesus and Paul didn’t say much about voting.”

Because they did not vote at the time.

>I guess not, the Roman empire in their day was neither a democracy nor a republic. The Roman empire had once been a republic, but not in Jesus and Paul’s day, it was a brutal imperial totalitarian state ruled by an emperor...which nobody voted on.

Happily, we CAN vote. All we can do is hope a great groundswell for Trump will overcome the advantage Hillary has, the media being an arm of the Democrat party, voter demographics, voter fraud, etc.

Ah, Caesar was ‘god’ - ‘government’...when Christ walked in the flesh. ‘We the people’ are government and Hillry god/ goddess ‘Caesar’ type is not Constitutional. We the people are responsible for the leaders we elect.
