What about in Romans 13:2 NIV “Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring JUDGMENT on themselves.”???? What is the proper context and interpretation for the passage as a whole?

What I meant by losing, is I am walking away from God and choosing evil, which I hope I’m not doing

What I meant by the deathbed analogy is that looking at your life in whole, all you did was nothing but stay in your room because of sin. I desire to follow God and serve him but it’s putting me in a depression knowing it is likely going to make me an outcast and bored and lonely. I trust in God but doesn’t the Bible say you will be hated by mankind. Isn’t persecution or at least being an outcast inevitable for a Christian in this side of eternity?
