     | 6,927 views

    Now it is impossible to activate authority without having a recognized identity. Since authority organizes and drives itself through our accepted identity.

    As believers, we do not know how to react as we are witness to the weaknesses and unpreparedness of our supposed technological advancement in addressing the problems of our days: although, knowledge has increased exponentially? Even now, the world is looking up to the average believer to proffer ...read more

    The Reason We Submit to Authority In Romans 13:5 we read, “We must obey therefore, not only in order to escape punishment, but also for conscience' sake.” (WNT) All of us are familiar with the principle that if we don’t obey rules and submit to those in authority, we will get punished, and ...read more

     | 7,709 views

    Most Christians truly want to live the kind of life that Jesus requires but often find it difficult to do so. Why? They don't understand what it means to be in submission? This is something Jesus understood and we need to also.

    Are You “Set Under Authority”? We know that Jesus operated in faith. He had complete trust in who he was as God’s Son and he knew that all of the resources of Heaven were available to him. If we have the same life in us that Jesus has in him, then why do we not have complete ...read more
