2 Peter 2:10

Does President Trump despise any authority other than his own? He downgrades any government or elected official who opposes him.

Paul quotes Exodus 22:28

²⁸ “You shall not revile God, nor curse a ruler of your people.

Acts 23:4–5 (NKJV)

⁴ And those who stood by said, “Do you revile God’s high priest?”

⁵ Then Paul said, “I did not know, brethren, that he was the high priest; for it is written, ‘You shall not speak evil of a ruler of your people.’ ”

2 Peter 2:10 (NKJV)

¹⁰ and especially those who walk according to the flesh in the lust of uncleanness and despise authority. They are presumptuous, self-willed. They are not afraid to speak evil of dignitaries,

Jude 4 (NKJV)

⁴ For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ.
