Dave, I was asking what models of authority-obedience there are. There’s tyranny, in which one always commands and it is for life, and there is democracy in which some command, but the “some” changes regularly and the rules are made by all. I know there is oligarchy, aristocracy etc, but these are all similar to tyranny. Do you know of any other model in which authority-obedience comes to play? Which one of these is used in the analogy of Christ/Church?
