"AUTHORITY" is a distasteful word to many people. This is understandable, for authority is often abused-on the job, in the family, and by the governments. The Bible realistically says: "Man has dominated man to his injury." (Ecclesiastes 8:9) Yes,many have dominated others by acting in a tyrannical and self-serving manner.
But not all authority is injurious. For example, it might be said that our body exercises authority over us. It "orders" us to breathe, eat, drink and sleep. Is this oppressive? No. Compliance with these demands is for our good. While submission to our bodily needs ma y be involuntary, there are other forms of authority that require our willing subjection. Consider some examples.
