Exiles: Week Nine

1 Peter 2:13-17

We can resist evil and do good by:

  1. Respecting government itself as an institution ordained by and overseen by God.

  2. Honoring and submitting to our government leaders - no matter who they are.

  3. Loving other Christians more than we love government, politics, or our political leaders.

  4. Fearing the Lord more than we fear any political outcome or possibility.

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. Romans 13:1

“We must obey God rather than men.” Acts 5:29
