How should we look at the government and voting?

• Punishes the _________- vs 4
• ____________the Innocent- vs 3
• God commands us to Obey- I Peter 2:13-17
  • _________for the Lord’s sake- vs 15
  • _________ for other’s sake- vs 15
    • Acts 5:29 (ESV) — 29 But Peter and the apostles answered, “We must obey God rather than men.
• God commands us to pray- I Timothy 2:1-3
  • Who was the emperor of Rome in the first century??____________
  • The early church was praying for a godless leader.

The primary responsibility we have to our nation and our government is to show Christ and through that change laws may change.
