Question 106. Are there limits to your obligation to obey them?
Yes. No mere human being is God. Blind obedience is not required, for everything should be tested by loyalty and obedience to God. When it seems as though I should not obey, I should always be alert to possible self-deception on my part, and should pray that we may all walk in the truth of God's will.
1 Pet. 2:17 "Honor everyone. Love the family of believers. Fear God. Honor the emperor."
Acts 5:29 "Peter and the apostles answered, 'We must obey God rather than any human authority.'"
