Therefore, it is necessary for you to obey, not only because you’re afraid of God’s anger but also because of your own conscience.
Who is really wise? Who knows how to explain things? Wisdom makes one’s face shine, and it changes one’s grim look.
I ⌞advise⌟ you to obey the king’s commands because of the oath you took in God’s presence.
With this belief I always do my best to have a clear conscience in the sight of God and people.
That is also why you pay your taxes. People in the government are God’s servants while they do the work he has given them.
Pray for us. We are sure that our consciences are clear because we want to live honorably in every way.
God is pleased if a person is aware of him while enduring the pains of unjust suffering.
Keep your conscience clear. Then those who treat the good Christian life you live with contempt will feel ashamed that they have ridiculed you.
