Book Of Romans Chapter 13 ( HONOR AUTHORITY) Bible study

[Note to Blog Readers: Expositor Notes Are in Bold Italic Font]

God has the Honor over every Authority here on this earth, even though, our government here on earth is heading for hell, due to taking God out of the Government, the pledge of allegiance, Prayer And the Bible out of our schools. There is only one Government that us Christians need to live and follow by and that is by God's Government. God is our Leader, not the corrupted one that we have here on earth. Whoever resists God, is of Satan. We are to be subject to the Law of the Land, unless it violates the Word of God. Our troops is being sent to a War, that we don't even belong in and trying to bring the shariah Law to the United States and that my friends, violates the Word of God, and should not be followed, that is perfect example of what this scripture is talking about. Your news stations that you watch, are not telling you what you need to know. We are to love one another, just as much as we love ourselves. This comes to mind after saying that. Those who disobeys God's Law of Living and those who puts others down by cursing at them, or cursing about anything, fighting with their friends for any reason, they are also putting themselves down as well and showing that they don't love God and themselves either. Take Obama for instance, he is sending troops off to war, just to get slaughtered and releasing dangerous troops back to the enemy. He doesn't even do things the way of the Lord God, because Obama is the enemy and who is against God and hates himself. If our earthly president was on the Lord side, he would pull our troops out of the war that we don't even belong in. God is the Only Government that we need to be following in this case. Do not live for the flesh, for the flesh leads only to a sinful life that will only die and fall into hell. Turn away from sin and live for God Almighty. Lets get started.

Romans 13:1-14 (KJV)

1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers (refers to Human Government). For there is no power but of God (refers to the fact that God has ordained Government): the powers that be are ordained of God (refers to Human Government being a permanent institution, brought into being by God for the regulation of human affairs). 2 Whosoever therefore resists the power, resists the Ordinance of God (anarchy is not of God): and they who resist shall receive to themselves damnation (the Law of the Land is always to be obeyed, providing it does not offend our conscience or the Word of God; the “damnation” mentioned here does not necessarily refer to such coming from God, but rather from men). 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil (concerns the Divine right of Government to oppose crime and to protect its citizens). Will you then not be afraid of the power? (This means that Civil Government should be respected, and all should fear breaking the Law.) do that which is good, and you shall have praise of the same (refers to obeying the Law, as all Christians ought to do; as well, it assumes that the Laws are right and just): 4 For he (the Civil Magistrate) is the minister of God to you for good (proclaims Government as a Divine Institution). But if you do that which is evil, be afraid; for he bears not the sword in vain (the sword is the symbol of the right of the State to inflict Capital punishment for Capital crimes): for he is the minister of God (not a Preacher of the Gospel, but a servant of the State), a revenger to execute wrath upon him who does evil (proclaims the right of the State, as ordained by God, to use whatever force is necessary to stop “evil,” i.e., crime). 5 Wherefore you must needs be subject (plainly tells us that Christians are subject to the Law of the Land; that is, if it does not violate the Word of God), not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake (refers to the fact that the Believer has a higher principle than that of the unbeliever). 6 For for this cause pay ye tribute also (refers to the paying of taxes): for they are God’s ministers, attending continually upon this very thing (refers to public servants). 7 Render therefore to all their dues (means that it is proper and right for all people to pay taxes, Christians as well!): tribute to whom tribute is due (refers to that which is owed, and should be paid); custom to whom custom (addresses hidden taxes, which we should pay as well); fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour (Government is an Institution to be respected, extending to all Civil servants from the lowest to the highest).

PUBLIC RELATIONSHIPS

8 Owe no man any thing (carries the idea that Christians do not “owe” their Brethren in the Lord the same obedience that is owed Civil Rulers), but to love one another (proclaims the only requirement between Believers): for he who loves another has fulfilled the Law (pertains to what the Law of Moses intended, but wasn’t able to bring about; it can be done under Christ, and Christ Alone). 9 For this, You shall not commit adultery (sex in any form outside of marriage is unlawful [Gen. 2:23-24]), You shall not kill (should have been translated, “murder”), You shall not steal (don’t take what’s not yours), You shall not bear false witness (don’t lie), You shall not covet (do not try to unlawfully take that which belongs to another); and if there be any other Commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, You shall love your neighbour as yourself (Divine Love produced by the Holy Spirit is self-sacrificial in its nature). 10 Love works no ill to his neighbour (will not hurt his neighbor): therefore love is the fulfilling of the Law (proclaims the fact that this is all the Law formally requires, but can only be done in Christ). 11 And that, knowing the time (the Believer is to do everything with the Judgment Seat of Christ in view), and now it is high time to awake out of sleep (spiritual apathy and lethargy must be shaken off): for now is our Salvation nearer than when we believed (actually speaks of the coming Rapture of the Church, and the Believer at that time being Glorified). 12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand (refers to everything up until the coming Resurrection as “night”; all after the Resurrection is referred to as “day,” with both day and night used as symbols): let us therefore cast off the works of darkness (could be translated, “let us therefore cast off the clothes of darkness”; former bad habits of life are here, as elsewhere, regarded as clothing once worn, but now to be put off), and let us put on the armour of light (could be translated, “and let us put on the clothes of Light”). 13 Let us walk honestly, as in the day (we should conduct ourselves in a manner befitting our high station in life as Saints of the Most High God); not in rioting and drunkenness (the ways of the world), not in chambering and wantonness (speaks of sexual immorality of every nature), not in strife and envying (speaks of constant manipulation and exploitation to best others regarding business, place, or position). 14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ (avail yourself of all that Christ has accomplished at the Cross, which is available to all Believers), and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof (Faith in the Cross will give the Holy Spirit latitude within our lives, which alone gives us victory over the flesh).

Genesis 2:23-24 (KJV)
THE FIRST MARRIAGE UNION
23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh (that is, she is man’s counterpart, not merely in feeling and sense — his flesh — but in his solid qualities): she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man (God did not take the woman out of man’s feet to be stepped on as an inferior; nor out of his head to be put on a pedestal as a superior; but from his side, close to his heart as an equal). 24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife (this Passage must be viewed as an inspired declaration of the law of marriage): and they shall be one flesh (points to a unity of persons, not simply to a conjunction of bodies, or a community of interests, or even a reciprocity of affections).

We are Created by God, For God and to Live and follow His ways of Living, not our ways. Our ways only brings eternal death in hell. Thanks to  God Almighty that He gave us a way to be Saved. You are Saved by accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and by Believing in what He did on the Cross at Calvary and not by Works, which is Water Baptism. Because of what Jesus Christ did at the Cross, we are subject to a Higher Power of Authority than what is on this earth, which is a low power that is being ran by Satan. I want to encourage you to come to Jesus Christ and get Saved, while you still have a chance. If you are looking for a way to get Saved, I just shared the way with you. I will like to read a Prayer out Loud and want you who are reading this on your computers or devices, as you read, say it out loud and Believe what you are reading. I Pray and hope that as you read this, that you will allow the Holy Ghost of God, come into your hearts and transform your life of sin, to an everlasting Life of God and become Heaven bound, and stop living the ways of the lost world.  Deny yourselves at the Cross, meaning that you have died from sins in your life and have turned away from it and will accept Jesus Christ. Lets Pray, Here we go,

"DEAR GOD IN HEAVEN, I COME TO YOU TODAY AS A LOST SINNER." 

"I AM ASKING YOU THAT YOU SAVE MY SOUL AND CLEANSE ME FROM ALL SIN."

"I REALIZE IN MY HEART MY NEED OF SALVATION, WHICH CAN ONLY COME THROUGH JESUS CHRIST."

"I AM ACCEPTING CHRIST INTO MY HEART AND WHAT HE DID ON THE CROSS IN ORDER TO PURCHASE MY REDEMPTION."

"IN OBEDIENCE TO YOUR WORD, I CONFESS WITH MY MOUTH THE LORD JESUS, AND BELIEVE IN MY HEART THAT GOD HAS RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD."

"YOU HAVE SAID IN YOUR WORD WHICH CANNOT LIE, 'FOR WHOSOEVER CALL UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD SHALL BE SAVED' (ROM. 10-13)."

"I HAVE CALLED UPON YOUR NAME EXACTLY AS YOU HAVE SAID, AND I AM SAVED."

If you have meant this Prayer today, then congratulations, you are Blood Bought and now Saved and you are now Perfect, Just as He is Perfect and Heaven Bound. May God be with you from here on out and stay clear of the schemes of Satan. May God be with you all. Amen. God Bless my friends.
