    The United States government is conducted by imperfect men who are under the influence and control of the invisible ruler, Satan the Devil. This is absolutely true, whether they know it or not. “No man can serve two masters.” (Matt. 6:24) These men cannot serve a wicked government that oppresses and does injustice to the people and at the same time serve God. It is authoritatively written, in Romans, chapter six, verse sixteen : “Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?” God is not responsible for any unrighteous government. If Satan is the invisible ruler of the United States government, which is claimed to be the most nearly ideal, then what can be said about the other governments of earth? In another articie the question as to whether Jehovah God could prevent the evils in the earthly governments will be answered."

    Lately I have been thinking how we are told to be in subjection to the Superior Authorities........and that we are to submit and obey our governments.......

    That is coming from God, the bible and from the Society.

    hmmmmmmmmm confusing isnt it?

    What is also interesting about the article is the date.... right at the height of the Great Depression when NOBODY trusted the government.
