Giving Honor to Whom Honor is Due (Rom 13:1-2, 5-7)

“Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those which exist are established by God. Therefore whoever resists authority has opposed the ordinance of God; and they who have opposed will receive condemnation upon themselves. Therefore it is necessary to be in subjection, not only because of wrath, but also for conscience’ sake. For because of this you also pay taxes, for rulers are servants of God, devoting themselves to this very thing. Render to all what is due them: tax to whom tax is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor.”

Intercessor does this Scripture go for President Adolf Hitler also?

Proverbs 29:2 (KJV): When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.

There are a lot of people in this country that are in mourning because of the way the Coronavirus was downplayed by this administration. There are a lot of people that don't see President Trump the way you do. Pray for them and pray for understanding. This is not the time for you or any of us to take our focus off of God. Keep your focus on God and stay prayerful and stay safe.

Adolf Hitler was a dictator who killed 6,000,000 Jewish people, 7,000,000 Christians and started WW2. No honor was due him.

Adolf Hitler was a dictator who killed 6,000,000 Jewish people, 7,000,000 Christians and started WW2. No honor was due him.

11 million people died under Hitler‘s rule. 6 Million Jews died in the Holocaust and 5 million non–Jews were killed. The non-Jews were gay people, priests, gypsies, people with mental or physical disabilities, communists, trade unionists, Jehovah’s Witnesses, anarchists, Polish and other Slavic peoples, and resistance fighters. He killed anyone who disagreed with him.

How many people are dying and or will die in the United States because of a lack of competence or willful ignorance in President Trump who knew about the coronavirus and downplayed it? But there will be a purpose for that. Do you think the non-Christians or immature Christians will find that comforting? God is dealing with us all. Some people wanted and voted in a reality TV star as President, and now we "ALL" are playing Survivor. God Help Us All.

If you repeat a lie often enough people will believe it. This quote is generally attributed to Dr. Paul Joseph Goebbels, who was Adolf Hitler's Propaganda Minister in Nazi Germany.

Trump kept repeating Fake News, Fake News, Fake News!!! Well, the Coronavirus is not Fake News. But enough people believe it was fake news because Trump drilled that in their heads about Fake News being reported by the media. Even Fox News downplayed the seriousness of this pandemic. And people believed Fox News and President Trump's "Fake News". People have died because of President Trump's willful ignorance. Ask the families of those who had members of their family die needlessly because Trump didn't have this Nation prepare for the coronavirus. Why would they honor him? Let me know what they tell you.

We All Need This Prayer: God I ask You in Jesus’ name just as You called out King David, a man after Your own heart, call out all the Christian Leaders in Public Office (including President Trump) and in the Church (including the writer of this prayer and myself) every time we lie, every time we try to cover up our sins and or wrongdoings. Call us out Lord Jesus. God call us out when we walk-in deception, usury, anger, or dictatorship. Call us out when we disrespect others, use foul language, or have a bad attitude. God call us out and deal with all our ungodly ways. God work on us; deal with our hearts according to Your Word. God cleanse us of anything that breaks Your heart! Wash us thoroughly from all immorality and cleanse us from all our sins. Create in each of us a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within us. God bless us to turn to You, repent for our sins, ask for forgiveness, and deliverance. Deliver us God from everything in our lives that is not of You. Deliver us from evil. May we each cry out to You for wisdom, strength, and the desire to live our lives pleasing unto You for Your glory, our protection, and wellbeing. God all that I have asked of You in this prayer, please do the same for every Christian that I know and every member of the church that I attend. God call us out in Your love. God Thank You. Thank You Lord Jesus. Amen!

You sound just like Trump!!! Your attitude reflects who is in leadership, who you honor and it is not God. Because if it was God that would
have never come out of your mouth. But thank you for showing me your true colors, who you really are. Thank you so much.

By the way I was born in this country. I have the right to walk in Truth, God's Truth. Compare the way that Trump is acting according to the Word of God.

I sift everything through the Word of God...

Proverbs 6:16-19NKJV): 16 These six things the Lord hates, Yes, seven are an abomination to Him:
17 A proud look, A lying tongue, Hands that shed innocent blood, 18 A heart that devises wicked plans,
Feet that are swift in running to evil, 19 A false witness who speaks lies, And one who sows discord among brethren.

My focus is on the Kingdom of God and not politics. And when politics hurt the Kingdom of God I will speak on it.

"My concern is that somebody would make a decision against Christianity because of Mr. Trump's behavior. And that's my high concern here. And to that person I would say, the way he speaks about people is not the way our master, our savior has taught us to speak; it's not the way our scriptures urge us to speak. The Bible urges us to be respectful to all people, especially people with whom we have disagreements, to never libel people, to never label people. Now, this is a huge deal in scripture, and so I would encourage that person, and the reason I've gone so verbal and vocal with this is because I'm protective of the reputation of Christ and the church, and I would ask that person not to interpret the Christian faith through the words of Mr. Trump."--Max Lucado

Let Us All Pray: God I ask You in Jesus' name cleanse me of anything that breaks Your heart! Wash me thoroughly from all immorality and cleanse me from all my sins. Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. God please do the same for President Trump and everyone who says that they are a Christian. Thank You Jesus. Amen.

We voted him in by the constitution. People want our country to be like the liberal world who rejected the word of God. And the majority of Americans want our sovereignty and want to overturn Roe v Wade. We do need revival but don’t need to give place to the devil. We shouldn’t try to lower the constitution, sell out to other countries and we should all get to work. “More matter, less art” Shakespeare said of Falstaff.

He was voted in, God did not appoint him to that office. He was voted in by the Electoral vote, not the Popular vote. Hilary Clinton got more votes than Trump. Please do your research...Some people wanted and voted in a reality TV star as President, and now we "ALL" are playing Survivor. God Help Us All.

Let Us All Pray: God I ask You in Jesus' name cleanse me of anything that breaks Your heart! Wash me thoroughly from all immorality and cleanse me from all my sins. Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. God please do the same for President Trump and everyone who says that they are a Christian. Thank You Jesus. Amen.

I Am A True Disciple of Jesus Christ. I am on Team Jesus. I am not a disciple of Trump nor am I on Team Trump. And whatever it cost me to be a True Disciple of Jesus Christ, God will help and strengthen me to endure.

Apparently, the evil forces behind these arenas of the falling away believe that as long as America stands, their cause will not climax in victory. Thus, we see a concentrated effort to bring America down to an entity without sovereignty.

One cannot deny the true meaning of that statement muttered by President Obama at the annual DC Correspondents’ Dinner on April 30, 2016: “The end of the Republic has never looked better!” He was so caught up with anticipation that Hillary Clinton would be the winner of the 2016 presidential election that he could not contain himself. Thus, the goal of destroying the United States from her perch at the top of the nations is Satan’s plan in his drive to pose as God in the place of the God of the universe. This is told of in 2 Thessalonians 2 and is referenced at the beginning of this article.

Topple the United States and the whole world will go down. Why? America is the only nation which allows its citizens the freedom of “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” as individual rights coming from God, not the state. That arrangement just cannot be allowed by those who envision a New World Order and a one-world government where no such freedom is planned—except for the elite. There is one thing, though, that is troubling to them—BUT GOD!”
