INTRO:
In our culture… submission is a dirty word.
We think that the submission of one, indicates the oppression of another.
++
The act of submission, is simply… the recognition of order, and the acknowledgement of our place in that order.
++
The one who submits, recognizes their place in terms of authority, power and responsibility.
++
As it pertains to authority, we align ourselves under those who serve us with roles of leadership.
In America, we get the privilege of hiring those leaders, and we have a structured government that limits and checks their authority.
++
As it pertains to power, we align ourselves to the forces that might cause us harm.
Things like nature, gravity, and even science.
In some cases, we might hold the power over fire, as it lights our home in a lamp.... but if our home is ablaze… that fire becomes the power that we submit to.
We don’t face it down… no way… we run from it.
++
As it pertains to responsibility, we align ourselves with the roles, abilities, and purposes that are established.
As parents, we are responsible for the welfare of our children.
Because of this, our children submit under our role of responsibility.
++
When verse 13 calls us to ‘be subject’… it is literally telling us… that there is something over us, and that we are under that thing… in this example… - governing authorities.
++
The root idea of submission is order.
Because I recognize a right order in society, I voluntarily and deliberately place myself under those set over me.
++
Christian submission is presented in different contexts… in different ways… and with different limits.
++
If you’re a note taker, you might find interest in jotting these down… we get at least 6 examples in the Bible…
