Conflict With Authority
Video with Doug Fields
Romans 13:1 “Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.”
Athelete: ‘Authority can be hard to respect’
- Bible states that authority comes from God.
- Am I willing to acknowledge that Gods way is the best way?
- We can become influential by being respectful.
Student: ‘Conflict with teachers can be difficult’
- A calm tone goes farther than a negative attitude.
(you can catch flies with honey but not with vinegar)
- We need to acknowledge our own downfalls.
- As a follower of Jesus we have a need to respond with Respect.
Skater: ‘Conflict with governing laws can be Harsh’
- Laws are to promote safety
- Imagine a world without laws
- Gen. 1:26- Order is a part of Gods plan
- God desires us to be respectful to others in authority over us.
- How we respond is a sign and reflection of our maturity.
