Our Lord was subject to such "authorities" and he ended up on the cross. King Herod was a ruler and he issued a decree to kill all children up to the age of 2. And for what? What was the good of that? Shall I go on? I would refer you to 1 Samuel 8, this chapter may explain God's original intent. We all are subject to governing authorities, for we use their false money; but if the rulers be evil you will not be spared. Psalm 116:15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints. Tu ne cede malis--Ludwig Von Mises
