How should we interpret 1 Peter 2:13-14 on the subject of submitting to every human institution?
13 Submit yourselves for the Lord's sake to every human institution, whether to a king as the one in authority, 14 or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and the praise of those who do right.
1 Peter 2:13 - 14
ESV - 13 Be subject for the Lord's sake to every human institution, whether it be to the emperor as supreme. 14 Or to governors as sent by him to punish those who do evil and to praise those who do good.
