Paul Endorses the CCP and Muslin Theocracies in Romans 13:1-7

Paul in Chapter 13 of Romans, verses 1-7, of the Revised Standard Version of the Bible, claims that all governing authorities are from God and have been instituted by God.

Do You Have an Alligator Mouth

One of the strongest messages contained in the epistle of James is the importance of controlling what you say about and to others.
