Wednesday, March 12, 2025 Romans 13:1-7 “Responding To Secular Authority, Part 1”

God explains in Romans 13:1-7 exactly how “presenting our bodies as living sacrifices” should affect how we respond to the civil, secular authorities under which we live. First, we are called to be submissive, willingly obeying and adapting to their authority. Second, we are to accept that all civil secular authority has actually been established by God as an expression of God’s “Common Grace” to counter the effect of sin in this fallen world.
