This message is from Hebrews 13:7-17. Individualism and self-autonomy are the high-waving flags of Western culture. And on the flip side, submission and obedience are seen as signs of weakness, even oppression. But that’s where Christ’s Church offers a clear alternative to our world. God, in His wisdom, has given the Church a measure of structure that is fundamentally good and it involves obeying your church leaders. How far does pastoral authority go in the church? What kind of authority do church leaders have? What are the checks and balances?
Obey Your Leaders
