The Grace of Government Part 1

Government is often thought of as a "necessary evil" that we put up with because they are seen as too restrictive to our freedoms or too corrupt to function as God intended, but today's text teaches us that every government - no matter how corrupt - is actually a grace from God because they 1) all restrain evil and 2) they recognize good works. Join us today as we continue our study of God's purposes for government. Pastor Jonathan preaching from Romans 13:2-3 "Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same.
