“After the presidential election in November, half of our countrymen will be happy, half will be furious. No matter how it turns out, honor Jesus.
Why? An unbelieving world will be watching.” (Mike Linch)
During the reign of Nero, Peter wrote this:
“Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human authority: whether to the emperor, as the supreme authority, or to governors, who are sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to commend those who do right.”
(1 Peter 2:13-14)
Why did God inspire Peter to write this during an evil emperor’s reign? Because God didn’t want believers to lose our influence for Christ.
