What purpose would a system of government have in heaven?

What purpose would a system of government have when God is both omnipotent and omniscient? Why would an omnipotent God need to delegate in order to effectively rule? Can you perhaps give a few examples of what these rulers would be tasked to do? What purpose would rulers have in a paradise society? There is no economy to take care of, no resource distribution, no justice system as all members at this point will be free of sin... what is left for the rulers to do?

If you are confused it is because of you're belief system limits God's Word.

Well, don't we have a reasonably clear understanding of what "unto the age" means now? I mean, if my input means anything. Can we depart from Benoni's confusion?

Our input seems to not mean anything to said poster.

But never mind, that one gives us a continual opportunity to present an alternative take on issues.

We are here to discuss and debate, and that's what I try and do. But I choose what and when and how.

Who are you addressing?

Always press "reply" if not using the "quote" of their post. That will mean the poster's name will appear at the top of your post, just as yours does on this one.

Your belief system limits God's Word, in that you add your ideas into it, making it say more than, or other than, what it does say.

Anyone who adds to God's Word is also, by doing so, taking away from it.
