Coop, if you notice, I specified "spiritual authority."
The Pilgrims and the Founding Fathers engaged in political resistance.
There is a big difference.
You said, "You have had your bad days with authority......that did not make you carnal..."
I have had times when my flesh chafed at the constraints of authority. Absolutely. And it was just about always a product of carnality when it happened.
I'll tell you what I could do, though--I could give you the names of the three living pastors I have sat under, and you could ask them if I was ever unsubmitted or disrespectful to them, and I know without a doubt what they would tell you.
To this day, as a 37 year old man who has preached nearly twent years and pastored for ten, when my pastor tells me something, I am going to take his advice. Period.
