Good point.I heard the other day that the opposition to Assad is largely made up of Islamists. Why do we want to provide them with their own private Air Force?

If you are on the side of God you will NOT be misled.Subject To-means: to not retaliate with wrath, to be subject to- as Christ was to authorities and Powers when it was time. As all the saints are , as every apostles was . Being subject to is not the same as being part of the Subjugation. That is what is coming.
If you are on the side of government today you will be mislead.
If you are on the side of God you will NOT be misled.
You need to read the passage I posted with an open heart.
Here it is in the NIV
NIV Romans 13:1 Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.
[*]JOHN 19:10-12The Soldiers Mock Jesus
…10So Pilate said to Him, “Do You refuse to speak to me? Do You not know that I have authority to release You and authority to crucify You?” 11Jesus answered, “You would have no authority over Me if it were not given to you from above. Therefore the one who handed Me over to you is guilty of greater sin.” 12From then on, Pilate tried to release Him, but the Jews kept shouting, “If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar. Anyone who declares himself a king is defying Caesar.”…
2 Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves.
[*]DID CHRIST REBEL? No in the fact he only fought with the Sword of His mouth not with MIGHT. You are only proving my point.
[*]we are called to a different rule of government, that which is heavenly.
[*] Christians are part of Gods kingdom our weapons are not those of war
[*]3 For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and he will commend you.
[*]You are saying the authority is man, in this interpretation, not God. And you are also saying that America is doing a righteous thing, in the middle east, yet they fund and give weapons to Islamist who themselvesare not righteous but are the same. You are drinking the Kool-Aid.
[*] 4 For he is God's servant to do you good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword for nothing. He is God's servant, an agent of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer.
This guy would think Sniper heroes... like Carlos HathcockYes but who are they? RNC or DNC? Conservatives or Liberals? Hawks or Doves?Communists or Socialists?
Conspiracy theorists mostly believe the real enemies are behind the scene doing their deeds e.g George Soros is accused of several conspiratorial endeavors.
Addendum:
Also many of us are veterans of past wars.
We still have a duty to protect our country - so my head (as you say) is full of both bullets and prayer - mostly prayer at the moment.
I believe you are indeed distorting the Romans 13 passage. when we go after and kill those who in the name of their god and their religion aka "the Religion of Peace" (aka ISIS) who slaughter men , women, pregnant women, children and babies then they have thrown off God's grace and will be shown is wrath.No I understand it perfectly. And I did not say if you are on the side of God you will be mislead but on the side of government.
My heart is open to true interpretation not self appeasement .
Unto Us a Child is Born Isaiah 9:5-7
…5For every boot of the booted warrior in the battle tumult, And cloak rolled in blood, will be for burning, fuel for the fire. 6For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. 7There will be no end to the increase of His government or of peace, On the throne of David and over his kingdom, To establish it and to uphold it with justice and righteousness From then on and forevermore. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will accomplish this.…

In the south, yes. There are some moderate groups, Arab and Kurd, operating in a large swath of the northeast.I heard the other day that the opposition to Assad is largely made up of Islamists. Why do we want to provide them with their own private Air Force?
True, we as a nation are not sinless, we have the freedom to support our nation or not without repercussion.This began before Isis, and I get Romans 13. Simply saying follow , the story from the beginning to its end. Whatever you did or do, whatever armies do or do not do, God is in control, but the chosen of God do not step left or right. Chosen from among men
separate and not of vessels of wrath but as vessels of peace, as all in Christ are. Upon us no judgement but appointed as Judges concerning the affairs of men. And America's most recent wars, not righteous.More deaths and displacement than good service toward man in righteousness. The argument is not that a man serve his country in righteousness but that what is going on now a days is not out of righteousness by America but as pawns for the Elitist,in the end time deception. Simply saying, watch.
It is not about being for Trump or for the Obama nation.I am for neither as I said neither left or right. I am simply called to the one and holy nation, my mission Jesus, to all who will listen peasant or king, a kingdom within a kingdom. It matters not where I was born or placed -his kingdom is within. I serve no one but the Lord, and am subject to all whom God sets me before- to be, not as part of the subjugation but transcendence and setting free from chains. Be who you want be..... this gospel is to be preach to ALL Nations. And is embraced by those of transcendence.True, we as a nation are not sinless, we have the freedom to support our nation or not without repercussion.
When I went into the military people were running away to Canada to avoid going to Vietnam.
People are still free to leave if they can't stand it here or if they can't stand Trump. Most won't.
Thank you.It is not about being for Trump or for the Obama nation.I am for neither as I said neither left or right. I am simply called to the one and holy nation, my mission Jesus, to all who will listen peasant or king, a kingdom within a kingdom. It matters not where I was born or placed -his kingdom is within. I serve no one but the Lord, and am subject to all whom God sets me before- to be, not as part of the subjugation but transcendence and setting free from chains. Be who you want be..... this gospel is to be preach to ALL Nations. And is embraced by those of transcendence.
God Bless!
Generally after I kill something I generally gut it and skin it. Then I stretch out the skin and scrape off all the fat and sun dry it. I could make a drum out of it and give it to Reynolds. Regarding the head and innards, throw them in a hog pen.Thank you.
No doubt about it, we are backing the terrorists. Seems like we did that about 35 years ago in Afghanistan. How'd that work out for us?I heard the other day that the opposition to Assad is largely made up of Islamists. Why do we want to provide them with their own private Air Force?
Amazing!Generally after I kill something I generally gut it and skin it. Then I stretch out the skin and scrape off all the fat and sun dry it. I could make a drum out of it and give it to Reynolds. Regarding the head and innards, throw them in a hog pen.
You can get chlorine from your local swimming pool...assuming there are any left in SyriaWhere did they get the chemical weapons?
Putin now, we’ll have you read how they got rid of Stalin? Rat poison/ Warfarin introduced into his wine and food.Amazing!
Sure ... even murderous sobs have purpose. When they hung Sadam he was left to strangle till his head popped off, Ben Laden was shot and pitched into the ocean for shark meat... there should be a price for being a mass murderer. In this life and the next.Amazing!
