Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely
(From Forerunner Commentary)

1 Peter 2:17-21  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) There is oppression and abuse all over the world. "Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely." People abuse when they amass power'whether it be in the family, in the community, or in the nation. There is plenty of abuse of authority. In this nation, we are moving rapidly toward the time when Christians will be abused far worse than they have ever been in the past. We have been called to this'to submit to evil out of respect for God, out of faith. This does not mean we are submit to do evil, but to submit to God in the face of evil. John W. Ritenbaugh Submitting (Part 2)
