Description

Our view of government should align with what God, our Creator, expects. Scripture teaches that the power of government comes from God, as seen in Daniel's acknowledgment that God gives power to whom He chooses and Paul's declaration that "the powers that be are ordained of God" (Romans 13:1). While trusting God to work out what is best, this does not mean disengagement. Christians are encouraged to participate, respect societal order, and strive for good, living peacefully and with integrity. Leaders are to be honored, as they are ultimately appointed by God for the good of society (John 19:11 ).
