^^ Well, I'll tell ya. The pompous self proclamations of categorical exactness of which you are so fond to commit sure don't cut the ice, that's certain.

It is impossible to inject God's Word in any situation without achieving the desired positive affect. Much less a reference which is precisely intended for to address specifically the political dispute we have here. And the ramifications outlined, death and destruction to those who're being led, which ought to bring about chills to any rational minded person. I fully expected you to dodge or deny it's implications but then my post was not intended for you. As I keep telling you, you serve a purpose.

That's why the Lord has admonished His people not to go too far with their opposition to the death grip under which so many people in the world are beset.
Romans 12:19 The Apostle Paul speaking---

Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," says the Lord.

As in the days of the early Church, there are not enough jails, enough courtrooms, enough cat calling and persecution to overcome the truth. The truth is that God is sovereign, and He rules this universe completely down to the last wayward quark. All the forces of evil could not prevail in Rome, and they will fair even worse in this day.

The same is true for the cause of Christ and that's why I posted His warning above. It's our job to point the way and speak the truth, always. But we don't rise up to arms in some kind of misguided coup attempt. Neither do we judge. It's His and His only, to judge men, reward men, or punish men and I can assure there will be zero mistakes made to that end.
