[variant]

Thou shalt not murder,[1] let alone government officials because that is unChrist-like.[2]

There is a VERY big difference between true-believing Christians and those CLAIMING to be true believing Christians. Some may argue this is the 'No True Scotsman' fallacy, I call this, "Putting one's money where their mouths are."

2. 1 Pet. 2:11-25, Rom. 13:1-14

It's always a bit iffy when people claim to speak directly with the divine.
