Dear Sarah,
I think that God is the ultimate authority for creating laws. His word is our foundation for right and wrong. Our government bases our laws off of his ten commandments, expect maybe the exception for you shall not worship other gods, which our society disobeys. But when our society becomes corrupt and allows laws such as abortion then we look to God, and he says that is wrong. And many governments of today make laws without God in the picture. Some are ok to obey and others we are told not to follow, or know better then to do so. God sets the laws in our lives that we are to follow, and he tells us to follow the laws of this world, unless they directly disobey his words. So to sum this all up and answer your question more clearly, no, our government is not the ultimate authority.
