My personal hero, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, seemed to know how to rightly divide these verses.

How?

He obeyed the admonitions in the bible to be in submission to the governing authorities, until his conscience could no longer allow him to accept the nazis atrocities.

He was a part of the resistance and was executed for being involved in a plot to kill hitler.

I believe in my heart that we give tax and honor where due, but when a conflict arises, we must obey God rather than man.

Just my humble opinion.
