Submit to Government (Romans 13:1–3) — A Sermon by R.C. Sproul

Summary

This sermon focuses on the biblical understanding of civil government, drawing from Romans 13:1-7. It emphasizes that all authorities are appointed by God and Christians have a responsibility to submit to them, not just out of fear of punishment but also for conscience' sake, by rendering what is due to Caesar. The practical takeaway is to live honorably and pay taxes, recognizing that authorities are God's ministers for good.
