Romans 13:1-7 “The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves.” (note, the actual phrase quoted is Romans 13: 1-2. For the full passage, go here.)
(HT STORM @ TP)
This quote posted by Storm is what is relied upon by The Family to provide “Christian” backing of totalitarian regimes, torture, war, genocide, etc. In a rather perverse way, they see leaders such as Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, and Bush (among others too numerous to mention) as put in power by God, therefore anything they do is a work of God. Recall the Wall Street Banker who claimed he was doing God’s work.
Yet this same passage is quietly ignored when they rally their minions to rebel against anything Obama.
But Obama’s the Antichrist, isn’t that obvious?
I mean he’s probably seen the Omen and Hussein in at least one New Guinean dialect, means ‘Damien’.

If that’s the case, then, according to the Bible passage quoted above, God gave the AntiChrist authority over the most powerful country on earth, and the people are not to rebel against him.
Something to think about….
Good point, BnF. No matter what, this C-Street ‘family’ is both wrong and scary!
