  79. tipo should respond and what are his duties towards the civil

  80. government. Imaging Focus today, last

  81. Sunday, we discussed the relationship between the church

  82. and the civil government and this Sunday, this Lord's Day,

  83. we'll be discussing about how we are to respond as Christians to

  84. the civil government. There is a paragraph seven, I

  85. think veggie confession and bus and I think casino Karina.

  86. We can see how it condemns this 16th century radical practices

  87. and works of the Anabaptists saying we denounce the

  88. Anabaptist, other anarchist and in general all those who want to

  89. reject the authorities and civil offices and to subvert justice

  90. by introducing common ownership of goods and corrupting the

  91. moral order that God has established among human beings.

  92. And we denounce that even to this day.

  93. So our theme for today is the Christian and the civil

  94. government. The Christian and the civil

  95. government and we have 3 headings that weapon adding

  96. points. The first heading is the civil

  97. government's task on of doing God's of doing justice.

  98. Second is the Christian's response to the civil

  99. government. And last is the Kingdom of

  100. Christ is the Christians only hope.

  211. of the government or the civil authorities as Christians spinal

  212. about iota lagadapati span so civil government Now I some

  213. window panel but I didn't you know, I think second point the

  214. Christians response to the civil government.

  215. We will follow through on that. Parappa India and company

  216. Sanabria, Sanath and Paul lists some responses to the civil

  217. government as gods appointed servants.

  231. Samantha caroma paracetamol Christians room gonna make

  232. Cristiano as well. I been a persecute Solihull had

  233. been a Pata in among a Roman Jewish authorities have been

  234. when this time when this letter was written and when Paul was

  235. writing about this topic and about this aspect of

  236. acknowledging the authorities. They themselves are experiencing

  237. this trials and persecutions from those authorities before

  238. them playing I think vanilla Nilan is the first response is

  239. seen Abbie Paul is that pregnant and marinating Kanina is that

  240. that Christians must submit themselves the government as

  241. simple as that we are to submit to the government.

  242. We are to acknowledge that they have authority over us.

  243. We have to acknowledge that God is the one who has given the

  244. authority to them to rule over the citizens or to rule over the

  245. people in this world. Paranoia, vignetting kalimutan

  246. na Hindi obedience or submission Hindi blind or obedience or

  247. indeed blind submission. So authorities, if it's been, we

  248. must still acknowledge, Take note that our submission to them

  249. stems from our primary submission to the Lord.

  250. Again, what do you think? We are to acknowledge that our

  251. submission to them stems from our primary submission to the

  252. Lord. It is an expression of our

  253. greater submission to the Lord and His words.

  254. It's been we are to submit to them, not in and of themselves

  255. or for themselves, but rather it is because it is the Word of

  256. God, and it is because it is God Himself who ordained them, and

  257. it is God Himself who commanded us to submit to them.

  262. dios donati kailangan indigenisation pananum paathaya.

  263. That's where we should draw the line, my brothers and sisters.

  264. If it is something immoral that the the government wants us to

  265. do if the government is commanding us to do something

  266. that is sinful. If the government is demanding

  267. us to do something that goes against the will of God that

  268. goes against the the word of God that goes against and put

  269. disrespect before our God. That's where we are to stand for

  270. the Lord. They're not for men anymore to

  281. unresponsiveness. Verse 29 and Sabine, Peter at

  282. the apostles. We must obey God rather than

  283. men. That's where we draw the line.

  284. That is where we draw the line, but we are to continuously trust

  285. the Lord. At the same time, we need to

  286. grow in this discernment in order for us to know what is

  287. true, what is right, what is righteous, and what is pure

  288. before God and what is not right after that.

  289. On second response to Mahita identities, a text would be do

  335. And this is the reality that we should always acknowledge.

  336. We are living in this fallen world, we are living in the

  337. darkness and only Christ is our light in this world.
