1 | God place people in political positions? | Rom 13:1 | Thomass | 73231 | ||
Does God place individuals in political positions (whether good or bad) or do we elect. | ||||||
2 | God place people in political positions? | Rom 13:1 | Reformer Joe | 73242 | ||
In the United States, both are true. We elect most of our officials, and God sovereignly controls who gets in office as well. Since nothing happens without God either causing it or permitting it (or some combination of the two), all of it falls under God's decree. Even the wicked rulers of the world are established by God for His purposes to be fulfilled. "Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those which exist are established by God." --Romans 13:1 --Joe! |
