Romans 13 teaches believers to respect governing authorities because God has established order and authority in society. Paul then emphasizes that love fulfills the law because loving our neighbor keeps us from intentionally harming others. He concludes by urging Christians to wake up spiritually, reject sinful living, and “put on the Lord Jesus Christ.”

We should live with an awareness that every day matters and that Christ could return at any time. Rather than becoming spiritually comfortable, we should continually put off darkness and choose to live more like Jesus.
