I mean isn't it the people's responsiblity to stand up for what is just, and right, take a stand against deceit, and corruption ? I know God, I know the Bible, and I know people have a responsiblity to obey laws, but it is also written, that corruption would take place in these places, and that we should discern what is really right, and what is really wrong. The devil takes people under his control who are willing to do his bidding, that includeds rulers, pastors, churchs, and institutions. Did't prayer use to be in school ? What is all this " In God we Trust " on the dollar bills ? Or " One Nation under God, in the visible ? " You can put God's name on anything, but it doesn't make it so. One of the ten commandments says, " Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain " That is exactly what is being done, when people serve money instead of God. The love of money is the root of all evil. I mean if you put God's name on something, you better make sure, he approves, or there will be severe consequences.. " For the Lord thy God will not hold the person blamless who takes his name in vain " GD, by the way is not the only way to show disrespect for God's name. When someone claims to know Jesus Christ, they are taking responsiblity for a representitive of God, if they do corruptly, God will reveal his dissapproval. God is not a respect of persons. Look at all the bloodshed in Israel. God's wrath has been on them ever since they had the Romans crucify Jesus. The Romans trampled their city to ruins, the Holocaust, the constant violence overthere today. There is allkinds of bloodshed. I mean is this what God wants ? No one is what God is, that is why he is to be feared, and respected. God is greater than ourselves, that is why we are to respect him as such. God is not some small man, like a president, God is an Almighty Creator, who made the Heavens, and the Earth, the stars, and the Universe, The Mountains, and the Seas, the woodlands, the meadows, the fields, and the Eagle.. I mean, people can't speak this into existence. There is no comparison, so God is to be feared. The wisest man of the Old Testament, King Solomon, said at the end of this life, his conclusion, was to fear God, and keep his commandments.. this is the whole duty of man.
