The Daily: Tuesday September 12, 2023

Daily Lectionary Reading: Psalm 19:65-72 (NRSV, The Message); Deuteronomy 17:2-13 (NRSV, The Message); Romans 13:1-7 (NRSV, The Message)
Do you want to be on good terms with the government? Be a responsible citizen and you’ll get on just fine, the government working to your advantage...
Romans 13:3 (The Message)
Really? Really? That's not the way it worked out for Paul in Rome

What do we do with a passage from scripture that is demonstrably false?

Soemtimes being a responsible citizen necessitates NOT being on good terms with the government.
