The “Tense” posts are going to be continued, but I had a topic laid on my heart recently that I felt needed to be said. Some say that this is a no brainer, others will fight you on this until the day they die. I feel it should be said regardless. It’s Romans 13:1-2.
“Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves.”
