Romans 13:1-7
Let every soul be in subjection to the higher powers: for there is no power but of God; and the powers that be are ordained of God.Therefore he that resisteth the power, withstandeth the ordinance of God: and they that withstand shall receive to themselves judgment.For rulers are not a terror to the good work, but to the evil. And wouldest thou have no fear of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise from the same:for he is a 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 a minister of God, an avenger for wrath to him that doeth evil.Wherefore ye must needs be in subjection, not only because of the wrath, but also for conscience’ sake.For for this cause ye pay tribute also; for they are ministers of God’s service, attending continually upon this very thing.Render to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor.

2 Peter 2 10
but chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of defilement, and despise dominion. Daring, self- willed, they tremble not to rail at dignities:
-
Ephesians 5:21
subjecting yourselves one to another in the fear of Christ.

An evil man seeketh only rebellion; Therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.

Jude 1:8-10
Yet in like manner these also in their dreamings defile the flesh, and set at nought dominion, and rail at dignities.But Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing judgment, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.But these rail at whatsoever things they know not: and what they understand naturally, like the creatures without reason, in these things are they destroyed.
