OBEDIENCE TO AUTHORITY
ROMANS 13:1-7  15:1-6





Romans
Chapter 13

1

¹ Let every person be subordinate to the higher authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been established by God.

2

Therefore, whoever resists authority opposes what God has appointed, and those who oppose it will bring judgment upon themselves.

3

For rulers are not a cause of fear to good conduct, but to evil. Do you wish to have no fear of authority? Then do what is good and you will receive approval from it,

4

for it is a servant of God for your good. But if you do evil, be afraid, for it does not bear the sword without purpose; it is the servant of God to inflict wrath on the evildoer.

5

Therefore, it is necessary to be subject not only because of the wrath but also because of conscience.

6

This is why you also pay taxes, for the authorities are ministers of God, devoting themselves to this very thing.

7

Pay to all their dues, taxes to whom taxes are due, toll to whom toll is due, respect to whom respect is due, honor to whom honor is due.

PATIENCE AND SELF DENIAL
ROMANS 15:1-6




Romans
Chapter 15

1

We who are strong ought to put up with the failings of the weak and not to please ourselves;

2

let each of us please our neighbor for the good, for building up.

3

For Christ did not please himself; but, as it is written, "The insults of those who insult you fall upon me." ¹

4

For whatever was written previously was written for our instruction, that by endurance and by the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.

5

May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to think in harmony ² with one another, in keeping with Christ Jesus,

THE FATHERS PLANS OF SALVATION'S
FULLFILLMENT THROUGH CHRIST
EPHESIANS 1:3-14





Ephesians
Chapter 1

1

¹ Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, to the holy ones who are (in Ephesus) ² faithful in Christ Jesus:

2

grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

3

³ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavens, ⁴

4

as he chose us in him, before the foundation of the world, to be holy and without blemish before him. In love

5

he destined us for adoption to himself through Jesus Christ, in accord with the favor of his will,

6

for the praise of the glory of his grace that he granted us in the beloved.

7

In him we have redemption by his blood, the forgiveness of transgressions, in accord with the riches of his grace

8

that he lavished upon us. In all wisdom and insight,

9

he has made known to us the mystery ⁵ of his will in accord with his favor that he set forth in him

10

as a plan for the fullness of times, to sum up all things in Christ, in heaven and on earth.

11

In him we were also chosen, destined in accord with the purpose of the one who accomplishes all things according to the intention of his will,

12

so that we might exist for the praise of his glory, we who first hoped ⁶ in Christ.

13

In him you also, who have heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and have believed in him, were sealed ⁷ with the promised holy Spirit,

14

which is the first installment ⁸ of our inheritance toward redemption as God's possession, to the praise of his glory.

RECAPITULATION
JOHN 12:44-50

 

John
Chapter 12

44

Jesus cried out and said, "Whoever believes in me believes not only in me but also in the one who sent me,

45

and whoever sees me sees the one who sent me.

46

I came into the world as light, so that everyone who believes in me might not remain in darkness.

47

And if anyone hears my words and does not observe them, I do not condemn him, for I did not come to condemn the world but to save the world.

48

Whoever rejects me and does not accept my words has something to judge him: the word that I spoke, it will condemn him on the last day,

49

because I did not speak on my own, but the Father who sent me commanded me what to say and speak.

50

And I know that his commandment is eternal life. So what I say, I say as the Father told me."
