And we don t like letting a government force us into one direction or another. I ve heard Christians come up with different rationalizations, reasons why they discount, scorn or ignore government jurisdiction at various levels. They ve mentioned that they are not citizens of Canada, but heaven. They claim God is their only master. They march by a heavenly drumbeat.
Earthly government is secular.
They serve a holy Lord. Earthly leaders are sinful. Their focus is heaven. What happens on a dying earth doesn t matter. Which calls for obedience to the letter of the law.
