· Delayed obedience = immediate disobedience - Obedience must be complete.
· Partial obedience = complete disobedience - Obedience must be continuous.
· Intermittent obedience = continuous disobedience - Obedience must be personal.
· Impersonal obedience = personal disobedience - Obedience must be without question.
· Questioned obedience = unquestioned disobedience - Obedience must be without reservation.
