In 2 Peter 2:10-12, "arrogance toward authority" summarizes the false teachers' bold, self-willed contempt: they despise lordship and slander "glorious ones" they do not understand. Interpreters debate whether those "glorious ones" are good angels, evil angels, or other dignitaries. Peter's point is their reckless presumption under God's judgment, not a blanket ban on questioning human leaders or practicing biblical accountability.
Romans 6 directly rejects the idea that grace gives permission to continue in sin; believers are joined to Christ's death and new life.
