Submission To Authority
Oct 13, 2013 • Nick Nye • Romans 13:1-7
Paul writes to the church in Rome to be submissive to the governing authorities. When we hear that,
we seem to immediately question when it’s acceptable for us to not be submissive. Although there is a
time to be disobedient, Paul calls us to submit to our nations leaders because God has placed them in
their positions. God is the one who gives our leaders their authority and Paul even goes so far to say
that they are God’s servants—even the ones that we disagree with.
