Your interpretation and scope granted to these verses is wholely inconsistent with the entirety of the Word of God. You are stating that those apply to every believer, at all times, regardless of occupation or God ordained purpose. How does your interpretation reconcile with this?

 

Romans 13:1-7 KJV — Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil. Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake. For this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing. Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.

 

There are ordained powers by God that are endowed with the purpose of punishing and executing wrath against evil doers. And there aren't direct limitations placed on their countenance in the process of accomplishing these GOD ORDAINED actions. The righteous should rejoice at the judgment of the most wicked evil occurring among us. If you aren't joyful in God's liberation of children and the hopeless (what is occurring here) then his spirit is strikingly absent from your words deeds and intents.

 

I'm probably casting pearls before swine here, but in the small chance you are a genuinely concerned Christ follower… You should follow him more closely, and not the castrated/pointless/powerless "love" gospel that is pervasive in far too many "churches" today.

Oh I would love to see you attempt to make a biblical case for interceding on behalf of that great dragon of old… Jesus himself only rebuked him with himself (The Word) and told Peter to get out of his way when satan had invaded his thinking. You're going to have to try much harder than an emotional "poor Satan" picture. You Also avoided engaging any of my previous points. Which is a pretty bad tell for your motives. Obviously not truth or scripture…
