Subject: Explain Romans 13 |
Bible Note: Hi dnewland, Why wouldn't you take Romans 13 literally? What evidence leads you to believe it should be viewed otherwise? The text doesn't say "let every soul be subject to the government as long as they agree with eveything it's doing", or "as long as they behave morally, etc.". I do not agree with all my government does. But, remember, God is Sovereign (Ps. 115:3)! Recall the test put to Christ in Matt. 22:16-21! Christ Himself answered, "Then render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's; and to God the things that are God's." Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
