Subordination

"The right that believers have is not the same right that Christ has. Christ has the sovereign supreme right to do what he will with his own. The right that believers have is subordinate to Christ. They are accountable for the use of those things to which they have a right and title. The right of Christ is the right of the Lord of the house. The right of the saints is the right of servants of the house."

-John Owen, Communion With God, Pg. 165
