Yabut, God tells us in the New Testament of the Bible to bow down to Government, doesn't He? Just read Romans chapter 13.

Verse 1 (NIV) says: "Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God."

And verse 6: "This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God’s servants, who give their full time to governing."

And verse 8: "Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law." (Oops. Do you think it is Government messing up here?)

FOLKS, YOU NEED TO PUT THIS INTO PERSPECTIVE. 
1. Through the vote, we are the Government.
2. Through the Constitution, Bill of Rights and their Oath of Office, "they" are traitors.

Here is an example of what I mean, right from the Bible.

The second half of Acts 17 talks about Paul the Apostle in Athens, Greece. Paul finds himself in "a meeting of the Areopagus," an Athenian forum where "All the Athenians and the foreigners who lived there spent their time doing nothing but talking about and listening to the latest ideas." Kinda like Freedom's Phoenix.

Talking about God in the Areopagus Paul said: "From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live."

Now wait just a minute, here! When I and my family wanted to move out to Arizona, we did the work... not God. We found a place to live in AZ, found jobs, sold the old house, packed up our stuff, and moved. WE DID IT... not God. Is Saint Paul mistaken?

Actually, God did our move. He did it by lovingly agreeing with our desires and actions, and by letting the move work out for us. If He hadn't done it, we would have never made it. The whole deal would have fallen through.

It works the same way with Government. We are the Government by our vote... and even by righteous activism. If we let those dogs of Satan... the corrupt men and women in Government... turn the whole nation against God and against our families, then we are the ones who are responsible. Why? Because God will listen to us if only we get up off our behinds and find out what God wants, what the Government is really doing, and then do something about it!

What kind of an "exact" place do you want that God should determine for you to live in? A dictatorial police state with governing officials who lie worse than the movies? You'll get what God gives you. But God will give you what you "ask" for, when you stand up and cause it to happen.
