Episode 76 - Relationships of Authority and Submission under Christ - Colossians 3:18-4:1

January 5, 2023
|
preached by

We are living during a time when authority structures have been widely deteriorated and are now being actively subverted. How are Christians to respond to this trend in light of the scriptures which teach that relationships of authority and submission are designed by God and are to be honored under Christ?

In this episode of Sermon B-Sides, Pastor Jon and Pastor Rusten consider the way that the scriptures establish multiple "spheres" of government and how especially how healthy household governments are crucial to having a healthy civil government, they also discuss the trend in many evangelical churches to embrace egalitarianism in the house and in the pastorate.

We hope you enjoy, and as usual, if you have any questions for Sermon B-Sides—or anything else for that matter—e-mail us at pastor@coramdeochurch.org.
