The Epistle to the Romans - Chapter 13

There are common misconceptions among Christians that, as members of the body of Christ, we don't have to obey the laws of the land.  Back in Chapter 12 of Romans, Paul gave us a "quick start" guide for how the individual is to live with God, with himself, and with those around him.  Now, in Chapter 13, Paul talks about how the Christian, with the renewed mind that he spoke of in Romans 12:1-2, is supposed to live in society today.  Not only does Paul say that we should obey the laws of the land, but we are to even obey thoses laws that don't seem to make sense to us - with some exceptions that we'll discuss.  In the process, he reveals principles for getting along in the world.   Remember, we are to be in the world, not of the world.
