The Christian and Government - Romans 13:1-7 - Skip Heitzig

There has always existed a tension between God’s people and human government, especially when we are not in favor of those who are in power. We may find it hard to “render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s” (Matthew 22:21) while being faithful to God. The Christians in Rome were no different when Paul wrote this letter. Let’s consider five principles that form a practical theology for Christian believers in relationship to secular human government. This teaching is from our series Heart & Soul: A Study through Romans with Skip Heitzig from Calvary Church.
