Proverbs: Rulers and Subjects
ProverbsSteve Gregg
In this discussion, Steve Gregg examines the biblical principles regarding the relationship between rulers and subjects.

He emphasizes the importance of displaying respect towards persons of higher authority and remaining patient in communication. Gregg also discusses the limitations of a ruler's authority and the need for truthfulness in influencing those in power.
