St. Paul misspoke..."Government derives its moral authority from God" I doubt that it was ever true, but it certainly isn't true today or in recent history.

To suggest the contrary, would be to suggest that Hitler had authority from god to do his evil deeds. And that Sodamm Insane has such moral authority. Or that the SCOUS has moral athority to aprove abortions, and make "choice" the law of the land.

I think not! To be sure, many if not most governments derive their authority from the evil one, not God.

You can not believe Paul to be an apostle and attribute scripture to a mistake. It is not Paul you pass judgement on, but God. Paul spoke those words while Rome was persecuting Christians and engaged in a war against God. Are you that ignorant?

Look at Hitler's demise, and see what comes of Hussein before you are so quick to condemn the Almighty for the sins of man. Or do you suppose you understand all the ends of God?

  3. The link in post#59 exposes your ignorance and faulty reasoning concerning the death penalty.
  4. St. Paul misspoke 66 posted on 03/03/2003 4:04 PM EST by babygene, exposes your Biblical ignorance.

Others on this thread have tried to correct you and yet you continue to drift without a moral compass.
