Proverbs 5:13

For I did not obey my teachers and I did not heed my instructors.

I will get up and go to my father and say to him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you.

Consequently the one who rejects this is not rejecting human authority but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.

Now we ask you, brothers and sisters, to acknowledge those who labor among you and preside over you in the Lord and admonish you,

Remember your leaders, who spoke God's message to you; reflect on the outcome of their lives and imitate their faith.
