Biblical Understanding based on the Record of Scripture
YHVH (OT) and Jesus Christ (NT) chose individuals to be servants and gave them responsibility and authority and made their choices to be known. Other individuals took responsibility and authority to themselves, and proclaimed themselves, but were never chosen at all. The members of the Church of God, the Body of Christ, have been chosen to be servants and those who exercise lordship and dominion are choosing for themselves.
