Who Is The Emperor?

Romans 13:1-5, 1 Peter 2

Posted by Dan Jarms & Dennis Dougherty on May 28, 2020

Romans 13:1-5 and 1 Peter 2 tells us to submit to our governing authorities, but in a democracy like ours with so many levels and separate branches of government, just who do we submit to? Dennis Dougherty, (who has taught Government and Politics at Gonzaga Prep for 25 years and is a long-time member of Faith Bible Church,) helps us understand our government's authority structure as we wade through the waters of re-opening and doing our best to submit to our authorities.
