Authority or Oppression?
In this video and article, Richard talks about the matter of authority and oppression. Whilst people may be oppressed where there is a misuse of authority, we can easliy get carried away with a worldly view and be quick to stand up for our rights. We must be reminded that authority of government is given by God for the protection and wellbeing of society, with the worst form of government being that of anarchy. Whilst there is a place for standing up for what is right, this should be done as a last resort and in an orderly manner. Look at the example of the 19th Century Christians, whose actions ultimately led to the abolition of slavery.
