Title: Security Stops Middle Schoolers From Singing The National Anthem At 9/11 Memorial

This is the epitome of modern Orwellian America.

A group of 51 middle schoolers from North Carolina traveled all the way to the 9/11 memorial and decided to sing the national anthem.

They were stopped — from singing the national anthem at the 9/11 memorial — halfway through by 9/11 memorial security because, well, it seems they didn’t have the proper permit.  

“You have to stop. This is considered a public demonstration!” one of the guards of one of Disneyland of American false flag monuments with a $60 million/year operating budget shouted at kids who don’t understand how misplaced their patriotism has become in modern America.

Even though the teacher had previously asked a security guard for verbal permission, that was not good enough. The teacher was supposed to apply for a permit, pay $35 in fees, and wait the requisite ten days so the kids would be granted the permission by the memorial staff to sing the national anthem.

The punchline?

Waynesville Middle School principal Trevor Putnam reportedly said the whole incident was a great lesson in civics, NOT because they could have discussed the First Amendment or destruction of the Bill of Rights, but then he could ask the kids “Why are there limits put in place in public forums?”

Why indeed.

Whew, damn that was close. Thank God security was there to stop them.

Just imagine the chaos, mayhem, anarchy, and utter lawlessness that would have been unleashed if those little brats had not been stopped. Who knows, it might have resulted in the destruction of all life on the planet if the hero's had not been there to stop all of that felonious, dangerous law breaking!

Can you believe it, NO PERMIT ! Who ever the teacher in charge was, should have their ass kicked real good.

Considering the seriousness of the offense, the hero's should have just performed summary execution on the spot. After all, they would have been justified. /sarc

Well, the "law is the law", right guys?

Well, since you asked so nicely … let me take a moment and see what the Bible says about obeying the law.

[ ... Tick, Tick, Tick -- Moment Passed ... ]

Okay, here it is. I find that Romans 13:1-7 makes it abundantly clear that God expects us to obey the laws of the government. This means that as a Christian, Deckard, you should you not promote disobeying the law or willfully breaking the laws of the country and you should take exception with anyone who does.

So, Deckard, as you continue on your journey down Hell’s path, I implore your to remember that it is not biblical to violate a law to achieve something you feel is “good” and it is reprehensible to subtlety or directly encourage anyone to choose the laws they would obey.

[ … Can I get an AMEN? … ]

Well, the “Bible is the Bible,” right guys?

By the way, Deckard, reading further on what Paul wrote … I find that Romans 13:1-7 also gives the government the authority to punish lawbreakers. Whether the punishment is, it is within the rights of the government to determine.

#16. To: Gatlin, the liar, Satanic preacher, Romans 13 1-7, Deckard (#11)

Do you consider quoting the Bible to be nonsense?

Misquoting the bible is worse than mere nonsense. Romans 13 refers to "legitimate" government and "law(s)" only. Since you don't understand the difference between good and evil government, you'll never "get it".


Get a Grip!
Romans 13:1-7

If Romans 13 does not mean "obey the State," what does it mean? Romans 13 means, "Remember them which have the rule over you," as you will also find at Hebrews 13:7. Since Paul was addressing the saints at Rome, it is logical that he would instruct them to submit to those who look after their souls. It is a reminder to be obedient to the authorities God has placed over His people. For they are truly the "ministers of God to thee for good." Unlike worldly rulers, God's ministers are not a terror to good works but to the evil. Therefore, "do that which is good and thou shalt have praise of the same."

Powers Not Ordained By God

Romans 13 is probably the most devastating thing to a Christian in the hands of the ungodly. It sounds so convincing to obey those who appear to be in power. For too long, secular governments have used Romans 13 as a club to beat Christians into obedience to them. Just because a group maintains power through their guns and jails, does not mean God put them there.

God said there are powers not ordained by Him at Hosea 8:4, "They have set up kings, but not by me: they have made princes, and I knew it not."

God didn't put them in power over the righteous. That's Satan's idea. The righteous don't need worldly, filthy authorities, which are no authorities at all. Do you think that they can instruct the righteous? They themselves steal. They themselves are perverts. And they presume to instruct the righteous? I don't think so.

Okay, here it is. I find that Romans 13:1-7 makes it abundantly clear that God expects us to obey the laws of the government.

Resistance to tyranny is obedience to God.

The passage you cited has been abused by those in power for centuries, including the Nazi government.

Should We Obey Authority … No Matter What?

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is coordinating with Christian ministers nationwide so that –if the government imposes MARTIAL LAW – the ministers will urge their flocks to OBEY the government.

A number of Christian leaders say that Christians must obey the government … no matter what

  For example, Robert Deffinbaugh – pastor at Community Bible Chapel in Richardson, Texas – says:

Whether the government be totalitarian or democratic, the Christian’s obligation to submit to it is the same.

This is not an unrealistic or abstract concept. After all, most churches in Nazi-era Germany supported the Nazis.    The German clergy used the same rationale to support Hitler that many American churches are using today to demand obedience to authority … Romans 13:

The German Christians were strongly nationalistic, and adopted … respect for state authority. This passage in Romans 13 was often cited as proof of a correlation between the Church and State:

Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore he who resists the authorities resists the what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment.

German church leaders even criticized Christians for disobeying their “governing authorities” … by protecting Jewish refugees by hiding them in their homes.

*****

Of course, spineless "Christians" like you will obediently turn over your firearms the day they become illegal to own, and I dare say you will turn in your neighbors who own guns because...you know - "The Law".

Those who fought for the independence from the British - they disobeyed "the law".

So did those who helped slaves escape and those who refused to move to the back of the bus.

Oh - just one more thing :

Romans 13 – Must Christians Submit to Government?

The Bible is filled with godly individuals who defied authority when they were commanded to do acts of evil. Daniel disobeyed Darius and went to the lions den. Moses’ parents hid him from Pharaoh as a baby. Rahab lied to protect the Hebrew spies.

Paul was constantly being jailed, beaten, and scourged because he would not stop preaching the Good News. Jesus himself also repeatedly defied the powerful political and religious leaders of his day. So much so, that Jesus finally got nailed to a Roman cross for it!

Your denial is far worse that your ignorance.

Your urging Christians to lay down like sheep and obey government "no matter what" is blasphemous.

The Bible Urges Us to CHALLENGE – Not Obey – Bad Government

In reality, Christian (and Jewish) leaders throughout history have explained that we must disobey tyrannical governments.

The Book of Maccabees – an ancient Jewish book purporting to document the events which Chanukah celebrates – apparently says:

Resistance to tyranny is obedience to God.

(Thomas Jefferson agreed.)

Gordan Runyan – pastor of Immanuel Baptist Church – points out numerous instances in the Bible of men and women who disobeyed their government rulers, and were rewarded by God and praised as holy.

Indeed, the Bible mentions “justice” more than almost any other topic. The Bible demands that we do justice and to stand up to ANYONE — including the rich or powerful — who do injustice or oppress the people.

Baptist minister Chuck Baldwin writes:

Did John the Baptist violate God’s principle of submission to authority when he publicly scolded King Herod for his infidelity? Did Simon Peter and the other Apostles violate God’s principle of submission to authority when they refused to stop preaching on the streets of Jerusalem?

Did Paul violate God’s principle of submission to authority when he refused to obey those authorities who demanded that he abandon his missionary work? In fact, Paul spent almost as much time in jail as he did out of jail.

Remember that every apostle of Christ (except John) was killed by hostile civil authorities opposed to their endeavors. Christians throughout church history were imprisoned, tortured, or killed by civil authorities of all stripes for refusing to submit to their various laws and prohibitions. Did all of these Christian martyrs violate God’s principle of submission to authority?

So, even the great prophets, apostles, and writers of the Bible (including the writer of Romans Chapter 13) understood that human authority – even civil authority – is limited.

Any government that is a “terror to good works” is acting beyond its authority and must be resisted.

Pinguinite (#28) (Edited) -- I only asked you to cite an example where quoting the Bible justifies obeying a law that is immoral … since I have never heard anyone do that.

Of course, as a US Air Force officer, I was permitted under Section 16c(1)(c) of the Uniform Code of Military Justice to refuse to follow a general order or regulation that was contrary to the Constitution, the laws of the United States, or lawful superior orders or for some other reason is beyond the authority of the official issuing it. ---- I could say that there is no "significant" bearing upon the point at hand. ----- But, I could not rule out it being germane so as to imply "a fitness" for or appropriateness to the point. ----- Gatlin

I watched it live on TV ...

He was good and make his points clear.

Some gave him Hell afterwards because he mispronounced a couple of words. The little mouthy shit behind the podium in the news room led the charge ... as though he should say anything after Obama mispronounced "corpsman." You may remember that instead of pronouncing "korman" ... he called it "corpseman."

The only thing I observed is that someone need to tell Trump to hold his hands still. He can be animated in the board room, but it is distracting when he continually waved his hands on TV. Just my opinion.

I am sure you can find a transcript or a video on the Web ...

Seems to me that Romans 13 lays out the legitimate functions of government. Anything else maybe isn't legitimate government.

Paul lays it out this way:

“First (13:1) Paul states that every person is to be subject to the governing authorities, because God is the sovereign who ordains all human governments. Then (13:2) he draws the implication: If you resist government authority, which God has established, you are opposing God Himself and you’ll come under judgment. Then (13:3-4) Paul explains that the purpose of civil government is to protect law-abiding citizens and punish law-breakers. As such, the government is acting as a minister of God in avenging wrong. Thus (13:5) there are two reasons to be in subjection to the government: Fear of punishment and conscience before God, who has ordained the government. Finally (13:6-7), Paul applies it by showing why we should pay taxes, namely, because government officials are servants of God. Thus they deserve our taxes as well as our respect.”

Nowhere do I find where Paul said one could pick and choose which laws they want to follow or disobey, with one exception. He did say that you could resist government authority and the law could be disobeyed if they did not follow God’s law. Am I right on wrong on this?

Paul doesn’t go into specifics and what he does not say, and I think we all believe … is that if the government officials who are servants of God screw things up, then they should be removed from office. I fully expect that removal will start from the top down under Trump. GO TRUMP!!!

Of course we can count on you to join with Gatlin and happily turn in all of your firearms when a law is passed making them illegal and also turning in those "lawbreakers" who do not willingly submit to the state and turn in their own firearms.

I have already addressed this in a couple of posts, which you cowardly ran away from.

Should We Obey Authority … No Matter What?

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is coordinating with Christian ministers nationwide so that –if the government imposes MARTIAL LAW – the ministers will urge their flocks to OBEY the government.

A number of Christian leaders say that Christians must obey the government … no matter what

  For example, Robert Deffinbaugh – pastor at Community Bible Chapel in Richardson, Texas – says:

Whether the government be totalitarian or democratic, the Christian’s obligation to submit to it is the same.

This is not an unrealistic or abstract concept. After all, most churches in Nazi-era Germany supported the Nazis.    The German clergy used the same rationale to support Hitler that many American churches are using today to demand obedience to authority … Romans 13:1-7

*****

Your urging Christians to lay down like sheep and obey government "no matter what" is blasphemous.

The Bible Urges Us to CHALLENGE – Not Obey – Bad Government

In reality, Christian (and Jewish) leaders throughout history have explained that we must disobey tyrannical governments.

The Book of Maccabees – an ancient Jewish book purporting to document the events which Chanukah celebrates – apparently says:

Resistance to tyranny is obedience to God.

(Thomas Jefferson agreed.)

Gordan Runyan – pastor of Immanuel Baptist Church – points out numerous instances in the Bible of men and women who disobeyed their government rulers, and were rewarded by God and praised as holy.

Indeed, the Bible mentions “justice” more than almost any other topic. The Bible demands that we do justice and to stand up to ANYONE — including the rich or powerful — who do injustice or oppress the people.

Baptist minister Chuck Baldwin writes:

Did John the Baptist violate God’s principle of submission to authority when he publicly scolded King Herod for his infidelity? Did Simon Peter and the other Apostles violate God’s principle of submission to authority when they refused to stop preaching on the streets of Jerusalem?

Did Paul violate God’s principle of submission to authority when he refused to obey those authorities who demanded that he abandon his missionary work? In fact, Paul spent almost as much time in jail as he did out of jail.

Remember that every apostle of Christ (except John) was killed by hostile civil authorities opposed to their endeavors. Christians throughout church history were imprisoned, tortured, or killed by civil authorities of all stripes for refusing to submit to their various laws and prohibitions. Did all of these Christian martyrs violate God’s principle of submission to authority?

So, even the great prophets, apostles, and writers of the Bible (including the writer of Romans Chapter 13) understood that human authority – even civil authority – is limited.

Any government that is a “terror to good works” is acting beyond its authority and must be resisted.

Look, dipshit, if anyone comes for my guns, as a government action, and as a rule of law of confiscation, then those coming to my residence will get the bullets first. If I do something illegal and there is a warrant for my arrest or I'm breaking laws inside my home... I'm surely not going to kill cops and then act stupid and portray myself as an innocent citizen and I don't know why my pitbull was shot for trying to chew off an officers arm.

Big difference between a mass government confiscation as a rule of law and being told you can't sing at a monument by a tool bag that was told he was wrong after his employers found out what he did.

Chapter 13

1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.

2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.

3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:

4 For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.

5 Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.

6 For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.

7 Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.

8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.

9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.

11 And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.

12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.

13 Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.

14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.

Just following orders.

I will only take one of these, all others have the same relative answer.

Paul said that if the law (orders) conflicted with God's law, then it should not be obeyed.

The law (order) should not have been followed by Christians ...

The “I was just following orders” defense to charges of military atrocity and human rights violations were rejected in the Nuremberg trals, held by the Allies after WWII. This was a landmark decision in international law, as the denial of the superior orders defense confirms that responsibility runs to the individual even when the individual was acting on their orders.

It was still a work in progress and I made an add on while I was thinking about it. Sorry if I messed you up.

I don't believe we are apart on this. I say that if "it" violates God's law, then don't do it. If it doesn't violate God's law and you don't like it, then it is your personal choice to violate the law (as in civil disobedience) but be prepared to accept the consequences.

How far one will go for a principle is a personal choice.
