It was His standard for individuals, for as Christians, we are to first seek peace, as well as love our enemies. These were commands for the individual walk of believers. In addition, it is clearly spoken that, we must not commit murder. Yet, the same Bible says that when people organize a collective government, such a government takes on a different position than individuals. Governments, Paul the apostle says, are of God.
Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities.
For there is no authority except from God, and those which exist are established by God. Therefore all government God approves of and blesses, must represent God and His will and word before its society. Yes, t Creator of all life has clearly said, that mankind is to subdue the earth and provide a place of peaceful coexistence, as much as possible. So we see, that the Bible affirms that God has ordained the governments of the earth to stand in His stead. They are to uphold His laws and practice His principles of life and living.
