Authority — Living Under God’s Order Before Leading Others

Authority is not claimed—it is entrusted by God through obedience.

In this episode of Faith Forged Men, Scripture confronts the misunderstanding of authority and exposes why many men want influence without submission. Biblical authority does not begin with leadership, position, or results. It begins with alignment under God’s order. Men who resist submission cannot lead rightly, no matter how capable they appear.

This episode calls men to reject negotiated obedience and live fully under the authority of God’s Word. Authority that endures is forged through discipline, accountability, and daily submission. Before a man is trusted to lead others, he must first live under God’s authority himself.

The Call to Biblical Manhood — What God Actually Requires of Men

Biblical manhood is not defined by culture, personality, or preference—it is defined by obedience to God’s authority.

In this opening episode of Faith Forged Men, the standard is set without apology. Scripture makes clear that God has always spoken directly to men, assigning responsibility, leadership, and accountability as commands, not options. This episode confronts the passivity that has weakened men’s faith and exposes the lie that silence equals humility or that belief can exist without obedience.

Listeners are challenged to recognize that authority flows from submission, discipline produces endurance, and leadership is forged through obedience long before influence is visible. Biblical manhood is not self-defined; it is formed under Scripture.

This episode calls men to decide—now—whether they will drift in compromise or stand firm in obedience as God forges men who lead boldly, love deeply, and remain faithful.
