6 Bible Verses about Honouring Rulers

Presbyters who are efficient presidents are to be considered worthy of ample remuneration, particularly those who have the task of preaching and teaching:

Obey your leaders, submit to them; for they are alive to the interests of your souls, as men who will have to account for their trust. Let their work be a joy to them and not a grief ??which would be a loss to yourselves.

"Brothers," said Paul, "I did not know he was high priest" (for it is written, You must not speak evil of any ruler of your people).

Every subject must obey the government-authorities, for no authority exists apart from God; the existing authorities have been constituted by God.

Do honour to all, love the brotherhood, reverence God, honour the emperor.

Despite it all, these visionaries pollute their flesh, scorn the Powers celestial, and scoff at the angelic Glories.
