Then why are your knickers in a knot?
Is there such a thing as FFF Prison???
There USED to be . . . .Then why are your knickers in a knot?
Actually, if I voted for O'Biden, I would keep my yap shut! Problem solved!
Problem is none of these whiney woke weasels know how to keep their mouths shut! I would therefore say that active affiliation with any of the radical "Woke" factions (ANTIFA, BLM, the "Alphabet Crowd," and so forth) is immediate grounds for Church discipline!
Oops, I guess I said it now!
Please, Ray...Don't talk about "panties" or "knickers." You'll get eKKK over here on this thread! LOL I've never had my knickers in a knot.Then why are your knickers in a knot?

Voting is our role in government, and, yes, we are responsible to follow the way of justice. Deuteronomy 16:20
Same.
Don't leave out the "Back the Blue" psy-op.
I do not take such a matter likely and granted there may be a good bit of truth here.
I'm confused as to why or how this thought is limited to voting. Would not God be just as concerned about what businesses you support? And I'm talking about a business that sells/makes products that are not essential and you have other choices. Do you spend money at Target, which openly allows perverted males to use the womens restrooms? Do you bank with a "woke" bank? Drink "woke" soda? This list could be endless.
No.
Nope.
Nope, again. You see, on my little slice of Earth, I actually research which companies get my money. So, how does this absolve you, my friendly alien?
The Constitution is the only power "over us", under God, in the US.
The Constitution that is "Wholly inadequate for anyone other than a 'moral and religious' people?"
Correct. Right now it doesn't seem our Constitution is held in very high regard anyhow...especially by the left.
Yep. Those in authority (1 Tim. 2:2) are still those in authority, even if we the people put them there for a time. Our responsibility to honour government isn't nullified by living in a democracy rather than a dictatorship.
it was also a government that people had no voice in and no vote with which to bring about changes.... .. americans on the other hand were allowed by God to establish a government where we choose our own leaders ...and were given the means to hold them accountable....... i believe God expects us to use that gift wisely and not just throw it away falling back on God to fix what we neglected to maintain....
This is obviously one of those subjects that is not able to be answered comprehensively with merely a sentence or two, and I ain't about to make one of those gargantuan-length sermons to do so <phwew, ain't ya glad
). But briefly, in the areas of agreement I have with what I perceive you to be saying is that we indeed do have a different form of government whereby we are free to elect those to represent out beliefs, and by the grace and mercy of God we should do that. Intricately related to that notion is our 1st amendment rights to freedom of speech (and consequently to freely dissent). I have no problem with disagreeing with people over matters of principle, goodness knows that is part of what makes this wonderful place called the FFF so long-lasting and interesting. Where I would encourage my Christian brethren, as in this case, is to disagree charitably (to "live peaceably with all men" if you will). There's no need IMNSHO to disparage a noble profession such as the police/sheriffs/patrolmen/etc by calling them "gangs" and imply that they are, as a unified body, doing the bidding of Joe Biden and the liberal elite. Or if we were to consider the other side of the coin I don't think it appropriate to claim that the right-wing side of the spectrum is fascist for trying to enforce the laws of the land as it pertains to the lewdness of public displays of the Drag-queen Story Hour crowd. To take it to a higher level of personal sensitivity on my part, I didn't like Bush 43's use of broad powers in instituting Homeland Security, and Snowden proved that to be a dangerous over-reach. I have no problems with exercising our right to call out error, but I think we are called to speak the truth in love, not just to the lost as it pertains to the state of their eternal souls. Well, that was the short version, so I'll stop there, before being sucked back into the vortex, lol.
There was no small amount of debate regarding this and Christians therefore fell on both sides of the argument and therefore found themselves on both sides of the Revolutionary War. What eventually won many over to the revolutionary side was the principle of "Lesser Magistrates." Men with power and authority of whom the "Future Citizens" of the United States would submit themselves to to fight off the "greater evil. The "Colonies" therefore formed their own government and fought a REGIMENTED war against their aggressor and prevailed.
