I have always ascribed to the belief that the role of government was to advance the betterment of society, while protecting the weak.

How about instead of finding the verse in the Bible:
"Ask and you shall receive.", try looking up "Seek and you shall find."
The Bible has quite a bit to say about personal responisbility and accepting the consequences of your sins against God and against other men. As always with Christianity and the Bible, it's all about how you interpret it and what parts you decide to read and remember.
