GOD'S AUTHORITY

GOD’S AUTHORITY

Romans 13:1

1Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.

13:1 Are there times when we should not obey the government? We should never allow government to force us to disobey God. Jesus and his apostles never disobeyed the government for personal reasons; when they disobeyed, it was in order to follow God’s higher law. Their disobedience was not cheap: They were threatened, beaten, thrown into jail, tortured, or executed for their convictions. Like them, if we are compelled to disobey, we must be ready to accept the consequences. Tyndale. Life Application Study Bible

ON THE WAY HOME WALK WITH JESUS obeying the authorities of GOD.
