One Nation “Under God”
from HMBC Podcast Hosted by Hunt's Memorial Baptist Church
A 4th of July message from Rev. James Wiles Romans 13:1-7 “Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God’s wrath on the wrongdoer. Therefore one must be in subjection, not only to avoid God’s wrath but also for the sake of conscience. For because of this you also pay taxes, for the authorities are ministers of God, attending to this very thing. Pay to all what is owed to them: taxes to whom taxes are owed, revenue to whom revenue is owed, respect to whom respect is owed, honor to whom honor is owed.” 5 Things Every Christian Must Do For Their Government If They Are Going To Obey The Word Of God: 1. We must participate in paying for government. 2. We need to pray for government. 3. We must praise our government. 4. We must participate in our government. 5. We must persuade our government. www.huntsmbc.com
