So does that mean when the Pastor says its time to pray or worship or whatever that we just kinda sit back and say to ourselves - do I feel like doing that right now?
I wonder why the bible tells us to obey those that have the rule over us?
Are there rulers in God's kingdom? The bible says so...
Rom 12:8 Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that showeth mercy, with cheerfulness.
God's kingdom needs leaders who lead and obedient, submissive saints who follow. I wonder how a shepherd dealt with sheep who didn't want to obey him? Perhaps that is why a shepherd has a rod and a staff.
