I recently paid attention to Proverbs 24:21 My son, fear the Lord and the king,
and do not join with those who do otherwise, (ESV. See here for the ESV policy on on-line usage.).
Does this apply in our time? If we live in the US, should we fear the President? I think so, based on what the New Testament also says about this matter. Perhaps "honor" or "respect" are also involved in that fear.
I have posted previously on a similar topic.
Thanks for reading.
Fear might be a good word, too.
ReplyDeleteProbably all three.
ReplyDeleteThanks, George.
