God’s People and the Government - 1 Peter 2:13-17

In 1 Peter 2:13-17, Peter shows us how believers follow the command to "live honorably among the Gentiles" (1 Peter 2:12) in their relationship towards the government. This passages focuses on the believer's submission to the government, given that God has instituted government for the good of the people. And yet, there are times for civil disobedience. As we see in the end, the goal of both our obedience and disobedience is the glory of God. Listen in as we seek to understand this complex relationship of "sojourners and exiles" to human government.
