Authoritarian People

in HeartChurch3 years ago


An authoritarian person is one who always wants to impose his will, even if he knows he is wrong, much less accept advice, because he is not interested in the other's opinion. Even above the will of God, He wants to impose his own.
Authoritarians will never think about what is good for another person because they only want to impose their will without stopping to think that it can cause harm. And this is the danger when acting in this way, because you can be destroying the lives, dreams, goals of others, just for wanting to do what pleases us.

It can be seen in the governments of the world, in the positions of leadership and management in jobs, but it is also common both in the family and in the churches, and that is why people today cannot hear the voice of God, Well the hardness that is in their hearts does not allow the sensitivity and spirituality that is required to do so.

That is why today we see destroyed homes, young people who are unaware of their purposes, because their parents impose instead of teaching, and this does not allow children to discover their potential, because they grow up listening and doing what mom and dad say even if they are wrong.

Parents should be an authority for their children, but never pretend that their children will live life as they direct, because we all have a purpose and sometimes that purpose is different from what a parent wants.
God will never live in a heart or in a life with those characteristics, the main thing we need for God to act in us is humility and authoritarian people lack it.

Jesus was a leader with authority, but this should not be confused with authoritarianism, having authority is different, authority is security, respect, training, example, a person with authority knows where he is going, has people who follow him by his example, and he signs others for the wisdom he has gained.
