Today’s Scripture:

Everyone

must submit to governing authorities. For all authority comes from God,

and those in positions of authority have been placed there by God. 2 So anyone who rebels against authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and they will be punished. 3 For

the authorities do not strike fear in people who are doing right, but

in those who are doing wrong. Would you like to live without fear of the

authorities? Do what is right, and they will honor you. 4 The

authorities are God’s servants, sent for your good. But if you are

doing wrong, of course you should be afraid, for they have the power to

punish you. They are God’s servants, sent for the very purpose of

punishing those who do what is wrong. 5 So you must submit to them, not only to avoid punishment, but also to keep a clear conscience.

6 Pay your taxes, too, for these same reasons. For government workers need to be paid. They are serving God in what they do. 7 Give

to everyone what you owe them: Pay your taxes and government fees to

those who collect them, and give respect and honor to those who are in

authority.
