Church School Meeting. How The Government Is Run In England And How Should It Be?

Page 165

I was asked to explain how Britain reigns in this country in 2019 compared with how it should reign according to the bible. Also how things should and may change later if God intervenes. I was asked how this world is run and how it could be much better.

Note: United Kingdom as a nation needs rules, laws and ways of living, to help them exist well as a nation. It also needs to think in a better way towards its people, to bring the best out of them too. This will help us all to grow and live better in the world.

However, the way things are, Britain likes to govern properly on their own from the rest of the world.

This article will look at what happens now, how things are done and should be and then the best way things should be done.

The big question is: How can we be a true citizen of heaven as opposed to citizen of Earth? 

Please note that this writing covers more recent years as many years ago, we lived completely different lives.

Compare what it means to be a citizen of the kingdom of God as opposed to a citizen of the United Kingdom.

·       Democracy

All nations have different ways to become a democracy and some countries do not even follow democracy well (but they follow rules, under their own distinct laws as individual leaders on their own). This article is guided by looking specifically at British way over the last 200 or so years. Before then it may have governed different ways, to try to obtain the results it wanted, but then (as per our day) assumed the fuller results as a government ruled by many people. In the past was gained without solitary rule by one or so people, but not now.

These times democracy seems to

have arisen between a list of many people, but in Britain many years have now gone by with changing those in rule. Recent things have happened which may change thoughts of how to be in control, as a smaller vote of people is gaining control over a majority, which should never happen.

The rest of this article will consider many things but especially hoping the best way we can live our lives to get the best blessings.

·       The rule of law

This government has developed in recent years as 5 or so years of rule by a voted in government. Their vote of leadership is gained from a split of people in the country, voting for the leaders they want. Question is how the people decide who to vote for, why, and the result of voting this way. What will happen by voting like this? Most people will not vote according to God’s way, as revealed in the bible, and sometimes the way of leadership of the nation may change if wrong majority people vote in what shouldn’t be voted in. What is happening, like today, if the government chooses to ignore majority vote and allow the minority to run things. Is that really to be allowed.

Most nations, and this one, do not know God’s truth or how they should properly live. Such a nation as this, may have godless (or even godly rules of law to follow), but do not actually know the truth of God. The best way to live is very difficult to follow and especially if we try to follow it. However, in some way every good nation needs proper laws to follow, and this report will now be instructed on what it knows is the best way, under the true God.

In some ways, having a law telling us how to live, may be good. But filled with an unbearable and enormous number of rules, laws etc which are almost impossible to fill every one of them well, needs an easier way somehow. Jesus said that if we are changed to be better people, which he enables us to be much better people with fewer laws. Then, we become people who naturally are able to live lives with much less laws by His power.  God gives them strength in His power to live better more obviously. All governments should enjoy better lives from such people.

Law should help us all to live better lives, but few of people actually do, so do need God to help them. God by His law and ways will make it easier for us, if we seek him properly in our lives. We do need to remember that God loves us so much that all we need to do is let Him take over our lives. We know we are forgiven and looked at as righteous people because He gives this to us. All we need to do is put our full trust and faith in Him.

·       Individual liberty

Each of us have a choice how to live our lives, but this country may not like the way we do this and may take us to prison or jail. This happens if we are bad enough, and even death sometimes happens. This is all depending on how bad we become at living this life.

This country in over more recent years, has changed a lot, and they have allowed certain viewpoints to be carried out without as terrible treatment as the past, seemingly.

It all depends on how people have behaved with the law in mind. It seems that British laws are set to cause people to give themselves to Britain and not taken out of it, if they do right. This message will now look at a more revealing time we have had in the last 1-200 years.

What happens if the law of the country is opposed to God, meaning people find it very hard to live lives the way the government wants and also please God. What is happening in reality? Most people prefer to leave God out of their lives and how to think and live.

·       Tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs

Over the last 1000 years there has been a lot of change in this country over how those of different faiths have been treated. It is very difficult to cover such a long period, in the way this country has allowed believers to do things or not, so will concentrate on this last century now.

This country now, generally, allows people to run different lives and say what they believe without being persecuted.  However, they are not usually allowed to put anyone down in what they do or say or this will cause them trouble. Generally, all people are expected to treat people well and equally or they can end up in trouble. In many places, though, preaching is not allowed if it is different from general views.

This all means that true believers can be affected to hold back on how they preach and only preach as allowed. Preachers homes can become weakened if they cannot preach everything they want to. This can affect how people practice their faith, what we believe and follow and what we have to allow into our lives.

Is it really true that we have real freedom in what we believe in.  Can the church be allowed to grow, as fast as it needs, in the best possible way we want. Do we really also have the tolerance we need. Fact is that this country, faith wise, is not growing but becoming far worse. Why? It seems that disbelief in faith is growing too fast, so the way things are done is actually making things worse. How can or should we turn this round.

 ·       Participation in Community Life

Believers are expected to live closer to society and do what the government wants. Governments want us to back them up and believe what they want us to do, to enjoy our lives more, under their rule.

This is why we now look at the bible to see what we can or cannot do.

We are called to live more respectful lives in community but we are especially taught to obey and follow God’s ways as revealed in the bible.

God teaches us how to live best lives and by receiving Jesus into our hearts. God says we can live better lives and have more freedom, with His power, to have His life in us. He said “you have heard it said …… but I say unto you”. In other words, He can change us to live better lives and the best way for society. If the land will not let us live this life without punishing us, it is still right to God to let Him live His life in us. He will also leave the penalties to God to sort out and not be bothered by it.

The question is should we live for the world or for God. For God may be dangerous to follow, but remember God is with us and wants us to do the right thing. We cannot as true believers submit to a rebellious world.

His ways are best and will do the whole world much better if we obey Him, so disobeying should not be followed as it weakens the world in a big way.

We are called to preach the way of salvation to all people and how to be changed and more like Him for our good. Fewer people now listen and follow God’s ways, so we need to find out how we can speak out with more courage, belief and faith without being concerned about damage to us in believing, but trusting God more to intervene.

We need to consider whether joining in on community life will help people meet God or not. If it doesn’t help then we need to change the things we do and bring God more into the way we do and speak things.

·      So, How Do We Become A Citizen Of God Compared To Citizen Of This World?

A citizen of God is what we should all aim for, but do we? Being a citizen of God brings the best possible out of our life, drawing us closer to Him and showing us the best possible way to live our lives, but following the world can only give temporal but not long-term help. Only Gods way leads us all to eternal life, but worldly ways can never last very long and cannot ever satisfy.

I will now speak about a more glorious life we can live in the center of Gods plan for us.

Is it His will for us to be filled with the Holy Spirit?

what affect will this have on us?

how can we all be filled?

Is it His Will for us all to be filled when we look at the scriptures of Acts? Check chapter 2 verse 1 to chapter 28 verse 31?

I read that in the earlier days of that church up to halfway through book of Acts that God worked much more miraculously and far more often than towards the end of the book. Why?

We read of the Holy Spirit blessing coming onto many believers. What sort of blessing is promised and should we become better, more powerful people?

We should not evaluate the strength of a believer, as whether they are filled with the Holy Spirit. I notice some as said to be filled but cannot see the full life of Jesus in them. How did the early church by Acts 28 evaluate?

True believers were not evaluated by whether they spoke in tongues but whether the real life of Jesus flowed from them showing God’s power in them. I do believe that we all need to be filled with the Holy Spirit and this will be good for us, but how do we know if this has happened or not?

Being filled is not an inner temporary feeling or blessing but a reality of permanent life in His power and not just a good feeling. The Holy Spirit will start a continued work of changing us for the best. So, it is not just a feeling of temporal good but an everlasting change, which we will know has happened.

Anyway, I know the church had become much more established by the end of Acts but do not understand why the true real miracles became less. What were the reasons this became less and do these reasons still occur. This experience should not be temporary, giving a small, party experience but should be much bigger and was so for many early years of the church. This experience was much bigger and better than has been announced since the early 1900’s. The early part of 1900’s does not follow the same power and functions of the early church up to about 0055 (about 0055 but need more exact help). I would guess that a real experience should be much more overbearingly real.

The end of the Acts church grew in many good ways but it is hard to understand why there were lower numbers of miracles. It could relate to what God was doing and His timing of things.

I believe that God’s plan was to start the foundation of the church by great miracles, but then move in a more powerful wording way through the church, until the end times of the church. This time would be when He would move even more powerfully later.

When we truthfully properly look at what God is doing in our day, we can see powerful things are starting up more often and will increase as we are nearing 2000 years after Jesus death and the ultimate 6000 years since the Earth was first put together as in Genesis 1. The bible tells us that the ultimate happens at the start of year 7000 which is closing on us very fast.

If we look at the gospels, we can see that true believers are revealed in many more ways. They are also usually speaking the Word of God more powerfully than speaking in tongues and expressing the power of God’s love. This is very important in the way we love and forgive.

So, we must seek to get closer to God and reflect more of His glory than speaking tongues which is just a mere example. Tongues is usually given to those not so mature and not growing so powerfully, although there can be exceptions.

I read that the best churches have learnt more of the absolute power of God and the way he works. They believe more in God’s miracles and prepare more for God’s plans for the Israel church with many millions of them being saved.

This will be a third of the whole nation coming to faith which will be the largest number of saved people happening close together so fast. The best we can experience of God in our time will be to concentrate on God’s special work to save Israel and not ever ignore this.

I see throughout the new testament plans of the future that the salvation comes directly after the church (Christians) are taken to Heaven.

All the very best.
