What Bothers You About the Supremacy of God

so you agree, if one has a problem with His authority , they are in rebellion
Yes. And every human is in rebellion toward God...including every Christian. The difference between the Christian and the non- Christian is Christ's atoning sacrifice applied to the Christian by God's gracious favor, apart from any works.
So, get in line as a rebel who is saved by grace and don't imagine for one second that you aren't wholly corrupt now that you are a Christian. You stand before God only because of Jesus and not because you're a swell person.

Obedient Christians who surrender to be lead of the Spirit are no longer in rebellion. We re reconciled with Him

Why?
Let's go to scripture and toss out the foolishness of men.
No Scripture in this post.
Men's foolishness.
Heb 4:12
For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

You are correct. I don't waste my time on philosophical distinctions that have no root in scripture.

Imperium is defined as:
supreme power or absolute dominion. It also means: the right to command or to employ the force of the state.
Supreme power and absolute dominion...sounds like omnipotence.
What irritates you about God's imperium?

The word of God may be shredding you to the heart.

Hebrews 4:11-13 Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience. For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.

How? I mean you've posted so little of it until now, if any
And Icon has posted absolutely none.

Yep, just checked thread.
To this point, you have posted exactly one and only one verse, and only at my urging. I am glad God could use me to bring this post back to his Holy Word instead of mere rantings of foolish men.:Notworthy
Icon still has refused to post any Scripture whatsoever. Although I do not think he is on.

This post detracts from your O.P. which unfortunately does not ask for any Scripture exegesis. :(
We should get back to it.

Jhn 11:35

A synonym for supremacy is imperium. Imperium is defined as:
supreme power or absolute dominion. It also means: the right to command or to employ the force of the state.

What bothers you about God's imperium?
Nothing about God's imperium bothers me. Those that are bothered by it are in trouble. Their god's power is limited.
