THE LIMITS OF SUBMISSION TO MAN

Romans 13:1–7 has often been used to justify an unseemly conformity to the status quo in this country and in others. It could be used to keep the church docile to the Nazi regime in Germany, and to impede the efforts of those in our own land who worked for equal rights for black people twenty years ago. I want us to look at this text in order to see what the apostle was really teaching.

LAHAT NAMAN DAW NG PULITIKO AY CORRUPT

Nakakakilabot po, pero merong mga Kristiyano na yan ang argumento. Ayaw nilang pag-usapan ang standard ng Bibliya, at mamili ayon sa alituntunin ng Diyos. Ang gusto nila ay makiagos na lang kung ano ang takbo ng mundo.

TO BE A CHRISTIAN IS TO LOVE JUSTICE

We cannot avoid speaking out against injustice and corruption. It is precisely because we are sinners who have been forgiven and now follow the God of Justice, that we are to champion justice and fight against injustice.

Breaking the Constitution

Breaking the Constitution, as well as saying that it is worthless, is rebellion against the ruling authority in our land.
