All government authority is delegated, and not absolute authority. So if the states demands are in conflict with the Law of God we as Christians should resist them.
No system of government is or will ever be perfect but we are to be subject to and honour government officials as they carry out their duties as God purposes 13:3-4.
Every Christian is permanently in debt, we can never repay the debt of love we owe to our fellow man because of the way Christ loves each of us. In this way the requirements of the whole law are fulfilled in us 13:8-9
How late is it? Paul told his readers to wake up! Jesus return is nearer than many think. I tend to think that much of what is happening is like a dress rehearsal of what is around the corner or as Jesus said the beginning of sorrows. Mathew 24:8
Jesus wants us to live in this world respecting government authority, Showing genuine love to everyone, to believers and to the unbelieving, and “putting on Christ” this means submitting to His Lordship in everything. 13:14
Memory verse
And do this, knowing the time, that now is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed Romans 13:11 N.K.J.
