“And I think when NN and Tiffany are saying that biblical authority is different than worldy authority, they are saying something that Jesus said:

But Jesus called them to Himself and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those who are great exercise authority over them. 26 Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you, let him be your servant. 27 And whoever desires to be first among you, let him be your slave— 28 just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.””

Charis 518,

It seems to be even different than that. Jesus is not noting between types of authority. Jesus is saying NOT TO SEEK AUTHORITY. Instead, if one wishes to be great let him/her think about serving/ministering (diakonos). And if one want to be the greatest or first let him/her be a a freely committed life indentured slave (duolos). We are not to be thinking of being served as in one who commands others but rather our lives should be centered on presenting our bodies as living sacrifices doing the works of God for God’s purposes.
