SERMON

* Speaker: Rev. Gyang Moses Chuwang

* Topic: The Marks of His Footsteps in the Gospels

* Theme: Following in His Footsteps

* Focus of this teaching: Jesus relating to existing authority

* There are three (3) types of authorities

1. Domestic authority (found in the family)

2. Governing authorities (institutional and political)

3. Spiritual authorities

★ Romans 13:1-7

* Authority is power and right to give orders and make others obey

★ Colossians 1:15-18

★ Philippians 2:9-14

★ Luke 2:41-52

* The way to heaven is the way of humility and of obedience

* Some people are "too big" to get to heaven, so they'll get to hell!

* Governing authorities

→ Matthew 22:15-22

→ 1 Peter 2:13

* Spiritual authorities

→ Matthew 17:24-27

→ 2 Chronicles 24:9

→ Nehemiah 10:32

→ Exodus 30:13

* Jesus was submissive to all authorities and He expects us (as Christians) to do same
