Subject for the Lord's Sake

This week, Greg teaches from Romans 13:1-7, where we learn about the government's role in our lives as Christ-followers. He shows us the difference between obedience and being subject to our government. To be "subject to" is to recognize the rightful place and the rightful authority of those who have legitimate authority used legitimately. God placed authorities over us so that we can grasp the reality of external authority. If we are not able to subject ourselves to authority we can see, we will not be able to subject ourselves to authority we can not see.
