Romans 13:1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For
there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.
2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance
of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation
My
highlighted verses:Romans 13:3 For rulers are not a terror to good
works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that
which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:
4
For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which
is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the
minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.
5
Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience
sake.
6 For for this cause pay ye tribute also:
for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.
For
there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.
That's
a hard pill to swallow, but it's all part of God's plan for the good of
we, His creation.
To study the Bible is the noblest of all pursuits;
to understand it, the highest of all goals.
We pray that with the guidance of the Holy
Spirit, you accomplish both.
