Romans 13 DOES NOT Teach Unlimited Obedience to the State
Sermon by Matt Trewhella on 11/18/2012
Given the condition of our current government and nation, many Christians are thinking about what their response should be to unjust government rule.
A common song - "We are always to obey the government" - is being sung by many ministers. They base their teaching on Romans 13. This short sermon gives three convincing proofs that Romans 13 does not teach that we are to give unlimited obedience to the State.
The three convincing proofs are:
1. No where does Romans 13 state that we are to give unlimited obedience to the State, rather men impose such thoughts upon the text.
2. Proper hermeneutics forbids such a conclusion – that we are to have unlimited obedience to the State – because there are many passages where the people of God disobey the State, and are commended by God for doing it.
3. Romans 13 contains conditional clauses which make it clear that our obedience to the State is not to be unlimited.
Here is a link to this sermon in written form and to a short video.

A REF
a-refutation-of-the-debased-theology-of
Sermon by Matt Trewhella on 6/27/1999
Christian Feminism theology has made deep inroads in American Christianity both in the academic and popular realms. This sermon takes the exegetical and interpretive work of Christian Feminism theology to task. This is a no-holds barred sermon which leaves Christian Feminism theology bloodied and lying where it belongs – in the trash heap of heresy. This sermon covers much Scripture.

THE I
the-interposition-of-the-lesser
Sermon by Matt Trewhella on 6/2/2013
Roman Emperor Trajan, upon giving a sword to a subordinate, said to him: “Use this sword against my enemies, if I give righteous commands; but if I give unrighteous commands, use it against me.”
Interposition is that calling of God which causes one to step into the gap. - willingly placing oneself between the oppressor and his intended victim. This can be done verbally or physically.
The lesser magistrate demonstrates the doctrine of interposition by placing himself between the tyrant or bad law – and the people.
This sermon lays out in a very concise manner this important doctrine that has been lost by the Church - and which loss has resulted in a detriment to nations.
