Who's got a reasoning book?


What's some good scriptures that talk about Jehovah letting the Governments rule, and how man is not fit to rule himself?

for instance, Romans 13:1 "Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God." (NIV)...


how would you prove that this isn't saying that God chooses and influences all leaders

anybody know if the Old Testament has also been compared to the Dead Sea Scrolls and verified that it has been passed down through time correctly?
