What does the Bible say about rebellion?

1.Rebellion against authority is rebellion against God: Deuteronomy 31:27; Joshua 22:22; Ezra 4:17-24; Nehemiah 9:17

2.Rebellion is sin personified in Satan: Genesis 3:1-13

3.Rebellion is comparable to witchcraft: 1 Samuel 15:16-23

4.Rebellion is a practice of evil people: Proverbs 17:11; Isaiah 65:2

5.Rebellion results in the loss of blessings from God: Numbers 20:10-24; Joshua 2:1-15; Jeremiah 28:2-17

6.Rebellion angers God: Isaiah 65:1-7; 1 Peter 3:18-22

7.Rebellion penultimately results in spiritual death: Romans 5:12-19; 1 Peter 2:4-8

Although there is much more that can be said about rebellion, we have to understand that God is not the Author of confusion (1 Corinthian 14:26-33). He wants things to be done decently and in order (1 Corinthians 14:40). When we respect authority and exercise proper dominion, we can care for things the way God wants us to care for them.
