A government is the body within a community, political entity or organization which has the authority to make and enforce rules, laws, and regulations..

Typically, the term "government" refers to a civil government or sovereign state which can be either local, national, or international. However, commercial, academic, religious, or other formal organizations are also governed by internal bodies. Such bodies may be called boards of directors, managers, or governors or they may be known as the administration (as in schools) or councils of elders (as in churches). The size of governments can vary by region or purpose.

Growth of an organization advances the complexity of its government, therefore small towns or small-to-medium privately-operated enterprises will have fewer officials than typically larger organizations such as multinational corporations which tend to have multiple interlocking, hierarchical layers of administration and governance. As complexity increases and the nature of governance becomes more complicated, so does the need for formal policies and procedures.

What would you religious people do if the governments issued a religious ban?
Q. Forbidding all worship at the threat of death and backed it up by burning churches,mosques,etc? Would you organize an army to fight. Would all of you ban together against the governments? Atheists and non-religious people, how would you feel and what would you do. Who is to say what might be considered a religion? Don't think this is so farfetched. It has happened on smaller scales.

A. I believe in the prophecies of the bible. Revelation foretells a complete riddance of religion (false religion) worldwide. The governments will physically carry it out, but this will be God's doing. True worshipers will heed the prophetic word, even now while there is time to do so. Positively identify Babylon the Great and cut all ties with her. NWT (Revelation 18:2) And he cried out with a strong voice, saying: She has fallen! Babylon the Great has fallen, and she has become a dwelling place of demons and a lurking place of every unclean exhalation and a lurking place of every unclean and hated bird!
