 Re:

Technically, President Obama has not commanded any of us to disobey God by his stances on marriage and abortion.

Actually it won't. See article:

And in any case it hasn't yet so Christians don't need to prematurely throw their 'just rebellion' card yet. It usually seems we are all to eager to fight against 'the system.' If we spent nearly as much time praying (or even putting some works to that faith by running for political positions) for the President and Congress, as opposed to eating up every news story and holy grumbling about it, things might be different?

I think our negativity towards government and speed to which we jump to conclusions reveals the conditions of hearts: we are nowhere near the aformentioned things laid out by Paul in Romans and Timothy.

Forgive me if I'm eager for the final empire to rise and Christ to come as the uncut stone and smash it to pieces and usher in His Kingdom.

:-P

Even now... Lord come quickly!

Indeed, I share your sentiments, yet let us be careful to steward our hearts and prayers as our Lord has prescribed until His blessed return.

Aye. For this struggle in this life is but for a moment... and then we shall pass into eternal glory.

Oh the anticipation!
