- Christianity
In 1 Peter 2: 13-17, Peter instructs believers to submit to human authorities, such as kings and governors, because their authority is instituted by God. He reminds us that when we do what is good, it provides a testimony against those who would try to speak against us. The passage urges believers to live freely, but to avoid using their freedom as an excuse for wrongdoing. Additionally, Peter calls for honor for everyone, love for fellow believers, reverence for God, and honor for the king.
