C. 13: 1–7 Relating to governmental authority
Matt. 28: 18 All authority comes from God through Jesus (see Col. 2: 10)
13: 1–4 Rulers are responsible to restrain evil and maintain good order—
but laws cannot change people’s hearts—only the gospel can do
that
1 Tim. 2: 1–6 Christians should uphold their rulers by prayer because good
government facilitates the preaching of the gospel
13: 5 Resisting governmental authority is resisting God who ordained
it—God does not necessarily set aside authority when it is
abused—even abused authority is better than none (anarchy)
John 19: 11 Compare the attitude of Jesus to Pilate
Eph. 2: 1–3; 6: 12 Even Satan retains authority received from God over all rebels,
angelic or human (compare Col. 1:13: authority of darkness)
Acts 5: 29 When rulers demand direct disobedience to God, Christians must
refuse—but submit—the issue here was preaching the gospel—
ultimately each believer must answer to God and his own
conscience
Mark 16: 15 Jesus had specifically commanded to preach the gospel to every
creature
16: 20 Submission plus prayer, testifying and preaching opens the way for
“the God of peace” to intervene—in this way, in 300 years, the
early church conquered the Roman Empire
13: 6–7 Christians should fulfill all obligations to government (compare
Matt. 22: 21)
D. 13: 8–10 One debt we can never pay off: To love
13: 8a All other indebtedness is wrong (compare Prov. 22:7)
13: 8–10 Love produces obedience to all other commandments
Matt. 24: 12 Lawlessness all around us is producing lovelessness (compare
2 Thess. 2: 3–7)
John 13: 34 The new commandment
James 1: 25 The perfect law of liberty
James 2: 8 The royal law
8: 4 Love is the righteous requirement of the law (compare Gal. 5: 14)
E. 13: 11–14 Live in anticipation of Christ’s return
13: 11–13 Satan’s kingdom of darkness will soon be overthrown—we must
live like those who belong to the kingdom of light
Titus 2: 11–14 Expecting Christ’s return motivates us to holiness
13: 14 We have all we need in Christ—we do not need to make
concessions to our fleshly nature (compare Col. 3: 3–5)
