If you're a Christian, you have to believe in the essential goodness of authority Fathers, apostles, elders, deacons kings, judges prophets, and priests were all God's ideas.

But that doesn't mean you obey unfaithful elders, lazy deacons, lying prophets, abusive fathers, or tyrranical kings without question. God's own authority is always open for appeal through our mediator, Jesus.
