Statement on Sphere Authority, Worship, and COVID-19 Quarantines, Part 1

New Warhorn Media post by Lucas Weeks:

I’ve been re-listening to these and they have been invaluable.

In light of the presidential debate tonight:

When Barack Obama was in the senate I knew that he was a proponent of late-term abortion, and I despised him for that… President Obama before he was President Obama was the worst of the worst. You go read his record as a state assembly man in Illinois… Then he became president, he was elected by the electorate. It was a lawful election. I’m sure there was cheating then as there was cheating with President Trump’s election. But he was elected, he was inaugurated. And then I realized how much I really – I’m sorry – but I hated him. Then I read him referring to the possibility of one of his daughters getting pregnant and him saying, “Well, you know, basically, you know, if they have a mistake, then they should clean it up.” What he was saying was “have an abortion.” And here was this man who would parade next to his wife and was the hero of the entire universe, because he was the first black president. He wasn’t really black, depending on how you judge blackness. Although he had lived on the South Side of Chicago, you gotta grant him that. And I hated him for the abortion and for what he said about his grandchildren.
And then I realized: no, no, no, no, no. And I disciplined myself every single time I referred to him or wrote his name I put “president” in front of it. Because it disciplines my rebellion. It disciplines my disrespect. Every single time I wrote “president” it rubbed it in on me. And that was what I needed.
… We don’t respect authority because we don’t fear God and we don’t realize that God has made His authority resident in sinful men.
