1 Peter 5:5-7 - A Difficult Command, A Divine Encouragement (Larry Malament)

Sermon Quotes:

Wayne Grudem: ‘The question remains why Peter spoke only to ‘you who are younger’, and not to the whole church, in commanding submission to the elders. It is probably because the younger people were generally those who would most need a reminder to be submissive to authority within the church. This would not imply that the others were free to rebel against the elders, but quite the opposite: if those who are likely to be most independent-minded and even at times rebellious against church leaders are commanded to be subject to the elders, then it follows that certainly everyone else must be subject to the elders as well.”
