Question 104: What does God require in the fifth commandment?
A.
That I show all honour, love and fidelity,
to my father and mother,
and all in authority over me,
and submit myself to their good instruction and correction,
with due obedience; (a)
and also patiently bear with their weaknesses and infirmities, (b)
since it pleases God to govern us by their hand. (c)

ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves
damnation.
Rom.13:3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil.
Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and
thou shalt have praise of the same:
Rom.13:4 For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou
do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in
vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon
him that doeth evil.
Rom.13:5 Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but
also for conscience sake.
Rom.13:6 For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's
ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.
Rom.13:7 Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute
is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom
honour.
