An excellent and appropriate reminder.

Resistance comes in many ways. How did these men resist government tyranny?
If we concentrate on Daniel and the three hebrews? Do you notice how the music is used to lead them astray?
What did Daniel and the 3 do to fight back and stand up to the “civil” authority? Did they win?
Are we this committed?
New Testament, New Covenant,
Minute 6:00
“Simon Peter and the other apostles, Paul spent as much time in jail as out of jail.” i am not recommending this, but how many of us have used the spoken word of Truth and have ended up in jail, or exiled from one of the many laodicean “churches” around us? Or just the people around us?
Believe on Him, we must first ourselves be pulled back and committed to God before engaging. We are not yet made perfect, it is a journey. Arrows of Truth must be fired, not just explosive bombs!
” Remember that every apostle of Christ but John was killed by hostile civil authorities opposed to their endeavors.”
i ask you what were the apostles preaching? Love? Peace? etc…
Who were the civil authorities of this time? Do you think it is any different today? Who are the two “religious” groups most of us point at?
Neither one seem very Christ like. And nothing is new under the sun, and they do not know the Son.
So how did the apostles wage war? Did they gather their armies, or did they speak the word of God? Is this Word still True today?
Were they hated for gathering armies, or were they murdered and martyred for speaking Truth?

And yes if someone comes into my home, i am prepared to defend. So do not start with me.
Understand?

Joel 3:10
Hammer your plowshares into swords and your pruning hooks into spears. Train even your weaklings to be warriors.

Ephesians 6:10-12
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

Hmmm interesting thought but the same empire they were fighting was not much different than the Empire we currently abide in .
