NASB | Romans 13:1 Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those which exist are established by God. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Romans 13:1 Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God [granted by His permission and sanction], and those which exist have been put in place by God. [Prov 8:15] |
Subject: Governmental Authority? |
Bible Note: How can you say that "God ordained the United States for His purpose. 'those which exist are established by God'." ... when we disobeyed Scripture? Even Acts 5:39 isn't a help. If man's good outweighs his evil, it doesn't mean he will go to heaven. |
