God & Country_03 is a series about Which Kingdom are you truly living for? Where do God and Country meet in your life? Are you living as a Christian in America or a sinner? Is it all about God with you or is all about the Country of America? We must realize that it is God who established civil authority. God has established the idea that a structure of government is necessary for human society. And as Christians, we are to be in submission to the governing authorities even though we may not always agree with them. This principle of respect for authority is repeated throughout the New Testament. Matt. 22:21;Titus 3:1-2. We think that a republic based on democracy is the best because it has served us well here in the United States for 245 years. But we must understand that our Constitution was written assuming that the citizens of this land would be moral, God? fearing people. That's the only way a republic based on democracy will work because democracy becomes whatever the people are. If the people become pagan & immoral & violent, then the government becomes pagan & immoral & violent. The point is, whatever the form of government - democracy, theocracy, monarchy, pagan or godly - God has still been able to work in or through them all to accomplish His will. And He wants His people to work in them for Him, too.
