Part of our work as faithful Christians is to learn how to discern when, and by what means, to resist authority.

About This Quote

When Christians are faced with temptation to sin, they should do what is right by God's Word even though the world points to them as being crazy for doing so. After all, they are not crazy, but are acting in wisdom. To resist the authority of the world is a test of faith. Sometimes it is necessary to stand against the spirit of this age rather than yielding to it. Christians can do this by holding fast to truth over tradition or popular opinion.
