We are to respect authority. The only thing I wonder about is, what if the authority does not know Christ? What if they instruct us to do that which is against God? Whose responsibility is it to uphold the commandments?
I do love what Paul writes of love though. If only we love others as ourselves, we would fulfill the law. That is what the law is--to love. Such a beautiful thing.
And, no matter the struggle, we must not give in to our flesh's desires. We must put on Jesus Christ instead, and the armor He provides.
