dc.description.abstractThis study gave an assessment of Roman 13:1-7 as a premise for the study of the implication of good governance in Nigeria. The study examined the position of Paul’s message in Roman 13:1-7 that Christians should co-operate with people in position of authority in the light of democracy and good governance. The Christian’s perspectives on contemporary democracy were examined critically. Views of Biblical scholars on Romans 13:1-7 were explored because of the importance it attached to the study. Methods employed in this work include historical, narrative and exegetical. The exegetical study of Roman 13:1-7 facilitated a comprehensive examination of the content and context of the text to enhance precise interpretation. The paper concluded with challenges for Christians in the governance and suggestions on what role the church can play in encouraging Christians in government, by setting good examples of good governance among their fold, then it will be possible to encourage church/state relationship. Keywords: Good governance, Democracy, Justice, Good authority
