It is important to follow the law for all sorts of reasons. The United States has specific reasons for why they make laws. For instance, there are so many people who break the law as it is. Imagine if there was no law? People could do anything they wanted and never get in trouble. People could go around killing other people for no reason if we did not have a law against it. If we did not have laws, we would not have any structure.

What if your neighbor down the road chose to not obey the law that states that you are not allowed to kill? What if your other neighbor came to your house to rape you, because he chose to ignore the law?
You should obey the law, because laws are made to protect people from each other and their own stupidity. Without laws there would be absolute chaos in the world as not every person lives by the same principals.

Paul later emphasized this at Romans 13:1-7 where he mentioned that the existing authorities are here in relative subjection to God to keep the world from becoming out of control with badness. To follow laws of the government is a Christian obligation as long as it doesn't interfere or conflict with your worship of God.

∙ 9y agoLaws have always been used in civilized societies to hold those societies together. They are the framework for any society because people have disputes and conflicts, even in a well ordered society. Therefore, it is essential that we all follow the laws in our communities. Otherwise, a society is unstable and ineffective and the strong can take advantage of the more vulnerable members. All the reasons why we need to follow laws are too numerous to list here. The following are some of the reasons why we need laws:
- Laws prevent people from being harmed by others and punish those who hurt others.
- Laws protect civil rights and guarantee legal rights.
- Laws govern relationships between individuals from married spouses to buyers and sellers.
- Law provides a forum to settle disputes.
- Laws protect the weak from the strong, protecting individual freedom, and ensuring that everyone be treated fairly.
- Laws provide a way to enforce government policies that deliver services that benefit citizens.
