Romans 13:6 For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing. 7 Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor.
Christians are to pay their taxes even when their tax burden is unreasonably high, and due respect is to be shown for those in authority, even if we did not vote for them, or may be at political odds with their philosophies, methods, and principles.
In other words, God is not telling us that we have to like those in authority; He is saying that we ought to respect their offices, as being ordained or permitted by God, and as such, any disagreements folks might have with their ideologies and political views should be voiced respectfully, if at all, as the situation may warrant.
Christians who identify as Democrats or Republicans should be able to live on the same street, showing a mutual respect for each other’s views, even if such views are at odds with one’s core beliefs. Thus, the overall perspective given in the scriptures, of those who obey God, is that they will generally be peace- loving and law-abiding citizens.
Romans 13:17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. 18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
