Political philosopher john Locke understood government as something that cannot exist without consent of the governed. Governments have power only because people are willing to give it to them.

How can one apply for church mutual insurance?

Church mutual insurance is to protect the congregation as well as damage to the church. Several companies will provide this cover but a specialist in this area is a better option to make sure the cover is suitable for the particular congregation. In the UK the Ecclesiastical Insurance Group are the major specialists who will fully assess the church and its needs before advising on the cover required.

Was Saul of Tarsus married?

I Corinthians 7:1-7 seems to indicate that he was not married:7 Now for the matters you wrote about: It is good for a man not to marry.a 2 But since there is so much immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband. 3 The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. 4 The wife's body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband. In the same way, the husband's body does not belong to him alone but also to his wife. 5 Do not deprive each other except by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. 6 I say this as a concession, not as a command. 7 I wish that all men were as I am. But each man has his own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that.More information:1 Corinthians 7 must be understood in light of 1 Corinthians 9, where verses 1-6 suggest just as strongly that Paul was, indeed, married, as would be expected of a Pharisee in the 1st Century.1Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are you not the result of my work in the Lord?2Even though I may not be an apostle to others, surely I am to you! For you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.3This is my defense to those who sit in judgment on me. 4Don't we have the right to food and drink? 5Don't we have the right to take a believing wife along with us, as do the other apostles and the Lord's brothers and Cephas? 6Or is it only I and Barnabas who must work for a living? [New International Version.]Another perspective:Taking into account all the applicable New Testament references, a reasonable conclusion (which also helps explain any seeming ambiguity) is that Paul (Saul) had been married, and was a widower by the time he wrote his epistles. However, the most honest (if unsatisfactory) answer is that scripture just doesn't indicate one way or the other with absolute certainty.

Why is premarital sex morally objectionable?

Persons who are in love and planning to marry should use their courtship to build a solid foundation of mutual trust and respect. Think: How can a woman fully trust a man who has shown himself lacking in self-control? And how easy is it for a man to cherish and honor a woman who disregards God's law in order to satisfy her romantic feelings or to please the man?
