The thought of authority is a distasteful one to Post Modern minds and ears. The autonomy of the individual is thought to reign supreme in the pantheon of verities to be sought after. The decline of biblical regard for authority is infecting the church of Jesus Christ and having its inevitable results in the crumbling of sound understanding of biblical theology and practice. This study series is intended to build upon the previous study of Post Modernism vs Christianity, which examined the philosophical foundations of the Post Modern view of objective and absolute Truth.
This message commences the study series, and it should be understood as establishing the very rock bottom starting point for understanding authority. That starting point is that ALL authority begins with God, and only God. There is no authority apart from God's authority, or from God Himself. The varieties of authorities that we encounter or exercise in our daily lives are all delegated from God: they are derivatives of, and appointed by, and under His sovereign authority.
A course notebook is being developed concurrently with this series. At the completion, it will become available at a nominal charge upon request.
