NewRelationship of believers to government
As a fundamentalist Christian, what is your belief about the proper relationship of a Christian to government?
1. I believe in the divine right of Kings, therefore the United States is an illegitimate government?
2. Government is ordained of God so even if we believe in individual soul liberty, freedom of conscience, and priesthood of the believer, we must always obey every act of government (Romans 13)?
3. Governments make laws, therefore whatever the law says, we must obey.
4. I believe all government/law, to be legitimate, MUST, be obedient to the Laws of Nature and Nature’s God.
5. A true fundamentalist believes that the Law of God is absolute, and can not be violated. In the realm of civil government, the Constitution should be treated in the same manner.
6. According to Romans 13, the only purpose of government is to punish the evil doer?

We need something on views of separation also I think… secondary/second level etc. Nobody has suggested that one yet though.

NewAnother Government Question option
7. I believe that I must obey the government, whatever its form, unless it demands me to do something contrary to what God demands (we must obey God rather than man).
