Historically, Jehovah's Witnesses have applied in their lives the principle expressed by the disciples of Jesus Christ: "We must obey God as ruler rather than men."  - Acts 5:29.
Swiendlo swa Yehovha swo kutsula vanhu, swo tanihi swa ku Huma ka Vaisrayele aEgipta, swi tiyisekisa leswaku i swinene ku landzela nsinya wa nawu lowu vuriweke hi vaapostola va Yesu, lava nga te: "Hi fanele ku yingisa Xikwembu tanihi mufumi ku tlula vanhu." - Mintirho 5:29.
