We will look at the God&#39;s purpose for government, for those are part of the higher authority.</p> <p>It is important to remember how Jesus reacted and what He said while on trial and being questioned by a governing authority of His day in Jerusalem, Pontius Pilot. </p> <p>John 19:9-11 - 9 and he (Pontius Pilot) entered into the Praetorium again, and said unto Jesus, Where are you from? But Jesus gave him no answer. 10  Pilate therefore saith unto him, Do you not speak to me? Do you not know that I have power to release thee, and I have power to crucify thee? 11 Jesus answered him, Thou wouldest have no power against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee has the greater sin.</p> <p>Jesus took no revenge and let God, the highest authority, be the final judge.</p> <p>Take your Bible and turn with us to<a href="https://www.blueletterbible.org/nkjv/rom/13/1/s_1059001" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"><strong> Romans 13:5</strong></a> with Dr. Mitchell.</p> --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/unchanging-word/message
