When they instruct you to stay at home, then you must stay at home. Obedience saves lives, but disobedience leads the rebellious Christians to their untimely death.
God’s instructions include obeying the authorities irrespective of how bad they are. It is not our duties to fail to follow them simply because they have been unable to depict a higher sense of responsibilities.
At this crucial moment, we must listen to our leaders, while we must continue to trust that Jehovah is with us no matter the circumstances.
Shalom.
There are certainly times in which Christians can follow both government orders and government guidance. This pandemic is one of those times.
There are also times in which Christians have an obligation beyond the world’s authorities. In my lifetime, 70 years, I’ve not come across one of those moments yet.
We do, however, read in the scriptures of G-D’s people standing against obedience to governing authority.
I hope we never know what it’s like to have to make the choice, but if we do, let us make the G-Dly choice and be prepared to either be rescued from a furnace or die and join Yeshua.
L-RD Bless, Keep, Shine . . .
Thank you for this inspiring message. I believe that time is almost near when Christians will have to stand up for the Lord. Within this pandemic, we hear rumours such as about the digital chips that will come via the ’supposed’ vaccine. Often there may be some elements of truth in stories. If this was true, then as true believers, we will have to choose between Jehovah and the god of this world. One thing is sure; things are not going to be as it used to be after this pandemic. Thanks a lot.
Stay blessed, stay protected! Shalom.
