When we don't respect authority... or God

The Daily Nugget

About
Today on the Daily Nugget, Mike looks at 2 Samuel 15 and Absalom’s
rebellion against his father, King David. What a striking contrast between
David’s reverence for the Lord’s anointed, even when Saul was pursuing him,
and Absalom’s apparent disregard for the authority God had established over
him. It is a timely reminder that we are called to honor and respect those
in positions of authority, recognizing that our attitude toward authority
ultimately reflects something about our reverence for God.
