Sunday Schodl Lesson LIVING RESPONSIBLY IN SOCIETY . I Peter 2: 13-17 . : !. ' Those Christians to whom Peter wrote this epistle were in the throes of great distress and persecution by the civil powers. There was a tendency on their part to rebel against the civil government or to Ignore their responsibility to it. ' ' Our relationship to the world Is different from what'JfV was before we became the recipients of God's saving grace. Since the Lord Jesus saved us, wehave tremendous responsibilities as well as glorious privileges. It behooves us, who are in reality foreign pilgrims passing through a strange land, to abstain from those indigencies which are Injurious to the soul and dishonoring to the Lord. Christians are obligated to separate themselves from the world to such an extent that the "conversation," which as used here ' means whole manner of life including thoughts, words ' and actions win rrierit the respect of the "Gentiles," or non-Christians. With the enabling help from the Lord, Christians can live circumspectly and thereby honor Him. Since the ones to whom Peter was writing were scattered abroad, he urged them to be in subjection to the govern ments of the countries in which they were residing and to render all rightful obligations to them. He commanded respect and reverence for the rulers, subjection to the con- j stituted authorities, and obedience to all the laws which did not conflict with God's Word and will. Inasmuch as bian government is ordained of God, In stituted by Him tjr the specific purpose of maintaining order in human relationships providing protection for its i citizens, punishment of evildoers, and the administration . of justice, and functions by His providence, it is the duty of Christians to be good citizens, and to maintain the proper attitude toward their government. In this era, when so " many are determined to denounce and to reject all govern- mental authority, it is important that we be reminded of the duty of citizens to the government under which they live and enjoy all the benefits which it provides. Defiance of governmental authority is a mark of disobedience to God as well as a violation of the law. Christians owe the government under which they live such obligations as respect, subjection, support, and obe dience. Disobedience to it incurs divine displeasure and chastisement. We are told that Christians should obey civil authorities for the Lord's sake. Such conduct on our part will put to silence all who would like to see us fall into difficulties. Christians have been set free from Satan's bondage in order that they may serve God acceptably and effectively. He has a right to expect them to be good citizens in whatever land they may reside. Christians exhibit their patriotism and their obedience to God by giving proper respect to all human beings because they have been created in the image of God; by cultivating and promoting love among the believers in Christ,-" endeavoring to strenghthen the ties that bind them' together as the servants of the Lord; by giving proper' reverence to God; and by giving proper honor to those to. whom it is due. A sincere desire to do the Lord's will''' reveals itself in the best citizenship. :.
