Text of excerpt, if available
We must obey God and not men. And there are probably many things in your life or perhaps many things in your life. I know that some of you anyway, there are some things in your life that the government tells you to do, and you don't think it's good and wise, and frankly you resent it and you don't think you should have to do it. And you might not even think you'd do. You might think that for instance, about driving 25 miles an hour in a school zone, when the lights are flashing and you might say, but the lights are flashing and there's not even a child insight or even a crossing guard that doesn't make any sense. I simply remind you of this. You're driving 25 miles an hour in that zone. As the law says, at that point is not causing you to sin. And it's frankly good for everyone because a child might dark out at that moment. Not every child gets to school on time. And is there when the crossing guards There Legitimate biblical submission, even if you don't like it. And even if you wouldn't do that, if you were in the place of the public officials, Second, our churches response should be characterized not only by legitimate biblical submission, it'd be, it should be characterized by a good testimony.
