jesusjnr2020: What we must examine in Romans 13:1 is “no authority except fromGod, and those which exist are established by God.” There are two words of interest. The first is the word “authority” which in the Greek is exousia. It refers to anyone who has power or can exercise authority. In the context of Romans 13:1-7, it refers to governmental authority. The Greek word that is translated as “established” is tasso. The word means “to appoint, to order, or to arrange”. That is, every governmental leader has been appointed, arranged or established by God. In Romans 9:17, we are reminded that God put the Pharaoh of Egypt in his position of authority. Also in Exodus 7-11 that this Pharaoh was an evil ruler. Romans 9:17 is a quote from Exodus 9:16-17, and it illustrates the principle of Romans 13:1. For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, “FOR THIS VERY PURPOSE I RAISED YOU UP, TO DEMONSTRATE MY POWER IN YOU, AND THAT MY NAME MIGHT BE PROCLAIMED THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE EARTH.” Romans 9:17 (NASB) In John 19:11 Jesus told Pontius Pilate, who was an evil governor, that his authority came from God the Father. In Daniel 4:17, the evil ruler of the Babylonian empire, King Nebuchadnezzar, reports part of a dream that God gave him. Daniel 4:17 This sentence is by the decree of the angelic watchers. And the decision is a command of the holy ones, In order that the living may know That the Most High is ruler over the realm of mankind, And bestows it on whom He wishes. And sets over it the lowliest of men.” When man rejects God, they see humans as the messiah to save them from the oppressive government - this we saw happened to Isreal many times. 1 Samuel 8:7 The LORD said to Samuel, “Listen to the voice of the people in regard to all that they say to you, for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected Me from being king over them.” The answer is that as Israel rejected God as their king in 1 Samuel 8:1-18, God granted their choice. God repeatedly supported their horrible choices of subsequent kings. There is no contradiction between Romans 13:1 and Hosea 8:4. The Purpose of Government Government exists and survives because God supports it. Yet when the rulers become too evil, God will judge them and punish them. Zechariah 1:15 tells us that God tolerates some evil from nations; but when they are excessively evil, God punishes them. Romans 13:4 gives us the purpose of government and rulers. They were appointed by God to suppress evil or keep evil in check. When they fail to do this, it is time for judgment. God has not established human government to Christianize the world. The purpose of government is to suppress evil and maintain some semblance of justice and care for the oppressed (Isaiah 1:16-17). Isaiah 1:16-17 is not a Christian statement. It describes the rebuke of the nation of Israel. Amos 5:15 is another rebuke of the nation for failing to hate evil, love good and establish justice. 3 Likes |

If it was God that appointed a leader like Buhari and co. Then that God must be a very WICKED GOD |

Lukuluku69:Thanks for this question! Jesus sat beside Jehovah immediately he got back to heaven {Act 2:34-36} until 1914 when he began taking action against God's enemies in heaven {Revelations 12:7-12} that's why the earth has been experiencing a lot since that year. Jesus will soon bring his government to the earth but before then he used God's Holy Spirit to restructure his disciples on earth so that they can start gathering faithful people throughout the earth, this began in the year 1919 and by the year 2019 it makes a hundred years of gathering faithful people, so far so good millions across the globe have become members of a global family of peace loving worshipers {Isaiah 2:2-4} under the Prince of Peace Jesus Christ! Isaiah 9:6 So my friend Jesus' 1,000 years reign hasn't begin it's when he started ruling over the earth that the counting will begin, by then he will order his angels to exterminate all opposers of his rule! Luke 19:27 May you have PEACE! |

jesusjnr2020: Look at 1 John 5: 18-19 " We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin; the One who was born of God keeps them safe, and the evil one cannot harm them. 19 We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one". Many christians should start reading the word of God. There are so many deep things we ought to know about political power on earth. I have my personal opinion about politics especially regarding how it's done in Nigeria. |

Maximus692: For more warped Doctrines should just Text LAFF to Maximus692 or a mention is good to go too? 1914 from when he left equals 1,000 years abi? You see that BS of a Thousand years Reign was cribbed from the Persians why early Delusional Christians. I think you should read more about the Zoroastrian Magis and see the similarities in their expectations and your own expectations about a Millennial Reign |
Re: Are All Leaders Appointed By God? by HardMirror(m): 10:32am On Mar 19, 2023 |
God1000:you are stupid. The bible says all leaders both good and bad are appointed by god. It did not say good leaders are appointed by god. That has nothing to do with if people are happy or not. Cos god kills people and punishes. It or she does not care if you are not happy with the leaders it gives you. |

jesusjnr2020: Roman 13:1 said 13 Everyone must obey state authorities, because no authority exists without God's permission, and the existing authorities have been put there by God. When we say God knows chose all leaders it doesn't mean they are directly chosen by God but what we are saying is that God knows about it. There is nothing that happened that was not by permission of God. Before Satan tempted Job, he took permission from God. The antichrist that was coming God knows about him that was the reason God told us about him before he comes but it was not to do the will of God but the will of Satan but God had permitted it. So there is no leader that God doesn't know about his emergency as leader . If God doesn't wan't him ,no matter how that person can't reach there even if he has all . Let us look at all our president in Nigeria. Who among them actually get it when he need it. Obasanjo was in prison when he was chosen to be a president of democracy, Jonathan was picked to be the vice president did he knows that Yaradu would die on the throne, Yaradua did not lobby for it when Obasanjo took him to come and become president. Buhari want it but when he wants it ,he was unable to get there until the time God appointed, Buhari been number one citizen try to put Hamad Lawal as his favorite Candidate but all his efforts Ahmad Lawal was unable to get there. Tinubu whom some youth rejected ,was the one that have it. Not become of his money or popularity because his money and popularity and power in the hands of person he called to be governor couldn't help him to win Lagos State. Atiku Abubaka became vice president when he did not want it because he was chosen as a running mate and the worn then but now that he was looking to be a president with all he has but he was unable to get it. That should be a lesson that our human power is nothing if God did not permitted out will. Some leader was a canes to some people and a blessing to some people even when other said he is the worst . Do you know that it was during Buhari regeem that some became millionaires .while in the time of Jonathan some became poor. |

Re: Are All Leaders Appointed By God? by JoshuaSG: 10:46am On Mar 19, 2023 |
The churchgoers cum GO/pastor worshippers in Nigeria will label anyone anointed once the fellow find his (or even her) way to the pulpit. In the scriptures cited by the OP Jesus said any impostor on the alter must be expunged, but those accursed and bewitched pastor worshippers will attack you for just calling out their pastor's misdeeds. Remember, Jesus said they must be uprooted, but if the brainwashed worshippers of self-acclaimed man of Gods could pounce on you for merely critisizing their rather gods pastor , I leave it to you to tell what they would do if you attempt uprooting the charlatan pastor. To these churchgoers in Christian garment, the sole criteria and only symbol of God's anointing is getting your way to the pulpit. |

God does not appoint any socalled leaders here on earth, men do. Nigeria is a clear proof. |
