New Testament Concepts on Authority
• God alone is the ultimate authority
• God has the right to designate authority as He chooses
• The authority is limited by the one who designated
• If one is given authority, he must not fear to exercise it
Observations
• Beware of pious (hypocritical religiosity) religious talk.
• No matter how you walk in sincerity, there will always be someone to come along and dispute your value system
