Wrath... but whose?

Romans 13 English Standard Version (ESV)


CAN WE IMAGINE THE DIFFICULTIES WE HAVE WHEN THE YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN WHO VOLUNTEER TO BE PLOICE OFFICERS HAVE THEMSELVES NOT BEEN TAUGHT RIGHT FROM WRONG? THIS IS A FACTOR IN INCIDENTS OF POLICE BRUTALITY. NEVRTHELESS AND NOTWITHSTANDING: 
"Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God's wrath on the wrongdoer. "
