Well I believe Romans 13:1-8 clearly states what the Church has authority over, and what the Government has authority over. I didn’t write the Bible I just study it.

But, Romans 13:3 states, "For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil."

Therefore, we must assume that those who are a terror to good works are not the "rulers" written of in Romans 13:3, but rather are instruments of the devil. James instructed us to resist the devil (James 4:7).
