For there is no power       but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.       2: Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God:       and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.       3: For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou       then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have       praise of the same:       4: For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that       which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he       is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth       evil.       5: Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also       for conscience sake.       6: For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers,       attending continually upon this very thing.       7: Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due;       custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour."       [Romans 13]              --       .       "Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution."       2 Timothy 3:12              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
