“If there is a Governmental Law that breaches the Constitution otuS and the lawful Amendments, doesn’t Romans 13 teach we are to not resist that Law, but to obey it, for otherwise it would be to resist God?”
“Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers (authorities). For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.” – Romans 13:1 KJB
“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.” – Matthew 28:18 KJB
“Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.” – Romans 13:2 KJB
“For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:” – Romans 13:3 KJB
“For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.” – Romans 13:4 KJB
“Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.” – Romans 13:5 KJB
“For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.” – Romans 13:6 KJB
“Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.” – Romans 13:7 KJB
God’s word says we are to
Fear Him above all:
“Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man (Hebrew: Adam).” – Ecclesiastes 12:13 KJB
Honour God above all:
“Wherefore the LORD God of Israel saith … them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.”
– 1 Samuel 2:30 KJB
“Honour thy father (above; Mat. 6:9 KJB) and thy mother (above; Gal. 4:26 KJB): that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.” – Exodus 20:12 KJB
Honour God’ commandments above the commandments of men:
“The LORD is well pleased for his righteousness' sake; he will magnify the law, and make it honourable.” – Isaiah 42:21 KJB
“If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words:” – Isaiah 58:13 KJB
“Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.” – Acts 5:29 KJB
What about the text which says to Honour the King?
“Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.” – 1 Peter 2:17 KJB
Notice that the text in context (1 Pet. 2:16-17 KJB) says, “…
as the servants of God …
Fear God …”
God comes first, before human kings, authorities and laws.
God is the KING of Kings. He is the supreme King above all kings, thrones, dominions, principalities and powers:
“KING of Kings” (1 Tim. 6:15; Rev. 17:14, 19:16 KJB)
Also, for those who live in the united States, the “President” (or Supreme Court, Senate or House) is
not a “King”, but is (or supposed to be) a duly elected representative of the people in the Executive Branch of Government,
subject to the people,
subject to the united States Constitution and its proper Amendments.
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.” – 1st Amendment of the united States Constitution (highest human authority).
Notice these words:
“They have set up kings, but not by me: they have made princes, and I knew it not: of their silver and their gold have they made them idols, that they may be cut off.” – Hosea 8:4 KJB
Who gave their power (authority) to the Beast?
“… the dragon gave him (the Beast, Rev. 13:1 KJB) his power, and his seat, and great authority.” – Revelation 13:2 KJB
Why? Because the Beast (Rev. 13:1 KJB) worships the Dragon (Rev. 12:1 KJB):
“And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it. If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.” – Luke 4:6-7 KJB
What about, “Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves …” (Hebrews 13:17 KJB)?
It (Heb. 13:17 KJB) is in the context of:
“Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.” – Hebrews 13:7 KJB
Hebrews 13:17 KJB is speaking about following the conduct of good (not evil) ministers and elders in the church (not political Governments).
Do not let others deceive you when they abuse this text.
“Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.” – Romans 13:8 KJB
“For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.” – Romans 13:9 KJB
“Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.” – Romans 13:10 KJB
“And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.” – Romans 13:11 KJB
“The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.” – Romans 13:12 KJB

“But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.” – Romans 13:14 KJB
Final warning:
“My son, fear thou the LORD and the king (Jesus, the Christians King, whose kingdom is not of this world; John 18:36 KJB): and meddle not with them that are given to change (Daniel 7:25 KJB):” – Proverbs 24:21 KJB
(Obama’s ‘change’, ‘we are change’, ‘loose (unleash) change’, ‘solidarity’, are all Jesuit run)
