Authority of Man and God
?
Romans 13:1-14 (KJV)
1 ?Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.
2 ?Whosoever therefore resists the power, resists the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.
3 ?For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:
4 ?For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.
5 ?Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.
6 ?For this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.
7 ?Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.
8 ?Owe no man anything, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
9 ?For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
10 ?Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore, love is the fulfilling of the law.
11 ?And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now, is our salvation nearer than when we believed.
12 ?The night is far spent; the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness and let us put on the armour of light.
13 ?Let us walk honestly, as in the day, not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.
14 ?But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.
?
1 Timothy 2:9-15 (KJV)
9 ?In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;
10 ?But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.
11 ?Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
12 ?But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
13 ?For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
14 ?And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
15 ?Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
?
1 Peter 3:21-22 (KJV)
21 ?The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
22 ?Who is gone into heaven and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.
