The great call of John the Baptist is foretold along with a veiled word of the second coming and that those who have faith will not run or become weary of the work.  All Israel and Jacob are encouraged to look forward to God's renewing.   Romans 13 calls us to obey the governing authorities unless it goes agains God's command, give all their due and to love one another as it is the fulfillment of the Law.  Make no provision for the flesh and the sin therein.
