Is a city governed by a tyrant free or enslaved

Usually enslaved.

Explanation:

When there is a tyrant in the government, the government usually is tyrannical or aristocratic. These rulers, as shown in history, are usually ruthless and rule with an iron hand. They hold onto the power tightly and force people to follow whatever rules the tyrant wants.

Citizens of tyrannical rule usually have no basic human freedom as they have to abide by the rules set by the tyrants or face severe punishment such as slavery, prison, or execution.

according to romans 13: 1-7, 1st peter 2: 12-14, and 1 timothy 2: 1-4, christians as citizens have specific responsibilities to a nation that gives liberties to its people. christians are obliged to live as good citizens by submitting to the human government. honor, or respect, is due to men in the high governmental station. a christian should reflect such respect not to gain some favor but because it is god’s will. peter 2: 14 notes that the purpose of the human government is to promote peace and justice in society. to submit to human government, peter includes three elements; obedience, respect, and good deeds.
