Romans 13 and the State of California Attack - Herbert W Armstrong - March 1980

Herbert W Armstrong

Dissidents and enemies of God's CHURCH have been saying that we disobeyed Romans 13 in appealing the government lawsuit of Jan. 3, 1979. They say, falsely, the Church of GOD should have caved in (to use an expression used by those who brought the suit) and let the State of California take over and run or destroy the Church of the LIVING GOD! It's about time we UNDERSTOOD God's teaching through the apostle Paul in Romans 13. The King James translation has, "Let every soul be subject to the higher powers" (verse 1). - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
