Biblical Understanding based on the Record of Scripture
Scripture warns us against putting our trust in princes yet that is the way of man. Take a man who wants to be followed and put him together with people who want to follow a man and another church will be born. Self-serving men take authority to themselves and use it to influence others in ungodly ways. We all need to learn to think, rather than to be told what to think, and thereby take personal responsibility for all we believe and do.
