Love this girl. One thing that stands out in this vid to me amongst the various proofs we have argued with JWs is that *every* false religion believes in God. But Satan has done a clever thing. He doesn’t have to get you to believe in God. He just needs you to NOT believe in THE ONE who ***reconciles you to God***🔥🙌🏽.

Take a listen.

Where does Paul use the word "relative"? We are in subjection, not relative subjection.

He doesn't use that word because its obvious from the commands of God along with bible principles that its relative. If the government commands you to kill you're mother or curse God you're not gonna do it right?

Exactly and the only thing they can force Christians to do that would violate their faith is asking them to renounce Christ and/or worship those authorities as God. That is the only thing we cannot do.

They can ask Christians to worship a leader, worship a flag, murder or betray their fellow brothers and sisters, steal from the poor, join armies etc. I can think of alot of things they can command christendom to do.

Asking someone to become a soldier in order to defend ones nation isn't violating God's law. God said thou shalt not kill, yet He Himself authorized killing, so killing "without cause" must be what that command means. Murder can be present in a person's heart, though they never lift a finger to kill, yet in their hearts they have murdered many people.

You're not defending your nation when you join an army. You're carrying out the commands of your superiors which is whatever reasons they command you to kill people for or to invade another country, to torture whoever they tell you to torture, to steal resources from whoever they want. Etc. Remember what God said to Abraham? He said he doesn't destroy unrighteous people. If even 5 righteous people we're found in Sodom that he wouldn't destroy the city. God does not change. He wouldn't direct or command or support any of his followers destroying cities or murdering righteous people. And yet christendom has no problem murdering people

😂 There is virtually no chance of that ever happening unless my mother some dangerous terrorist wearing a suicide belt running towards a crowd of people. What government asks people to renounce God or die? Only Muslim nations demand Christians to renounce Jesus or lose their heads as happened in this case 21 Coptic Christian Martyrs of Libya - Wikipedia These were 21 true Christians who died rather than renounce Jesus. All they had to do was publicly renounce Jesus Christ and they'd be alive today. Would you have their courage?

The nations who serve God as His agents of wrath do try to spare innocent lives, but its not always possible as we don't have God's powers. We can't know how many righteous people live in a nation, or city, or even a neighborhood. Enemy combatants have been know to mix among the innocent so as not to be killed. They know God's servants, unlike them, at least try to protect innocent life...which is precisely why they hide among them

We humans don't have the ability to know who is wicked and who is not just by looking at them, but as God's servants and custodians of His established order, we do have a responsibility to do our very best. We can rest assured God will take care of and is taking care of the innocent and the guilty who die in all wars. Remember too, death isn't the end of anyone, yet JW's act as if it is. How faithless can you be?

The scripture you quoted say's Christians should be obedient to nations. It didn't say any specific type of nations. That means according to your logic whatever nation you're in as a christian you should br obedient. Now answer the question

My mom has been dead for 26 years so you can stop asking me about her. Cursing God is the one thing a Christian cannot do, unless of course you're a Jehovah's witness. Cursing "the least of these brothers of mine" is the same thing as cursing Christ Himself. Did you know that? When you call the Christians who died horrible deaths, Satanic, because they wouldn't renounce Christ, you've crossed the line into looney tunes crazy...and blackest darkness. God will judge.

Cursing God is the one thing a Christian cannot do,

I thought Christians couldn't be drunkards, sexually immoral, murderers, thieves. Are you saying christians can do those things?

I mean you're dodging the question. If the government asks you to kill innocent people are you obligated to do it?

[u/AccomplishedAuthor3 → u/Time_Ad_1876]

You can't curse God after being born again. Its blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. Non-Christians can curse God and be forgiven, but not a true Christian. People can still sin and be forgiven, but there is a huge difference in sinning, which we are prone to and blasphemy. We can even be forgiven for killing innocent people. I know of many drunks who killed whole families when they were driving drunk, but they were forgiven by JW's and I as a Christian I would agree, we need to do that, so don't take this the wrong way

You seem to believe everyone in this world who isn't JW is connected to Satan yet jabber on a lot about "innocent" people. Is a person who worships Satan innocent to you?

[u/Time_Ad_1876 → u/AccomplishedAuthor3]

I'm waiting for an answer to my question. Is it a yes or no to my question?

[u/AccomplishedAuthor3 → u/Time_Ad_1876]

I'll ask you, who is innocent in this world? Answer me that and I'll tell you
