Give thanks for Caesar

I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
(I Timothy 2:1-2)

Now, these kings, these Caesars, were pretty unsavory types, cold-blooded killers, who make Obama, Trump or Hillary look virtuous in comparison, and yet God desired we should give thanks for these people, and pray they will not persecute God’s people. Give thanks for Obama and pray he will not cause too much trouble. Pray God’s will for the election, and leave it at that.
