Few of God's children understand that spiritual authority begins with submission to the authorities that God has instituted. Whoever rebels against authority rebels against God; obedience is better than sacrifice.
The reason is that true obedience or submission is possible only if one truly desires the will of God. That is the key to the problem, that is the price to be paid. Let him who has an ear hear what Watchman Nee has to say to Christians. He represents the authority that God has given; anyone who truly desires spiritual authority will listen to him!
