God himself is taking care of us through our parents, pastors and the governing authorities.Therefore also for this reason we are to honor them in holy fear with humility and obedience. “It is a far higher thing to honor than to love one, inasmuch as it comprehends not only love, but also modesty, humility and deference as to a majesty there hidden.” (Luther).
Rom. 13:1,4: Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God. The powers that be are ordained of God...For he is the minister of God to thee for good.
