Kafo...after th...Thanks everyone for your input...<br /><br /><b>Kafo</b>...after thinking about what you wrote, my answer is that no we can't "respectfully" break the laws because there is no respect in doing that. And I agree that we will not necessarily agree with every rule of the Government, but there is no disorder in hierarchy, and we must recognize it as children of God. Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego respected King Nebuchadnezzar, but NOT for one moment did they bow down to his god. <br /><br />God bless everyone...really appreciate your thoughtful insights as we all LEARN God's word together as blogsville's family...:)Jennifer A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06618639466963813761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33811809.post-22071190319962749402009-09-17T05:00:01.738-04:002009-09-17T05:00:01.738-04:00Respect for Authority is really Important.

It made me realize that God does not want us to take authority placed over us for granted, no matter how bad it may seem.<br /><br />This post is really a great reminder and food for thought.
