Romans 13

Paul reminds the church that faith in Christ includes humble and God-honoring submission to those who are governing authorities. This is not to say that we should do everything we are told to do especially where it concerns honoring the Lord above all else; Paul’s life was often marked by gracious-yet-firm civil disobedience when he was asked not to preach the gospel. We should, however, respect those in authority, submitting where appropriate, and show honor as much as possible. Paul goes on to say that “Love does no wrong to a neighbor. Love, therefore, is the fulfillment of the law.” Our aim should be to live a life humility and service, especially in light Christ’s return. Since the night is nearly over and the day is near, let us then put on the armor of light. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/[email protected]
