Descending political power is known to be, a Ruler who is influenced from God, to rule over a people. Everything must go through him and there is no opposition. An example of descending political power would be a tyranny. On the other hand, ascending political power is when the power of the territory is all in the hands of the people, the membership. The officers receive from the people to represent them. The hierarchy of the church and the state have no absolute power. All of the church clergy and representative in secular government are accountable to the members. Popular sovereignty is a perfect example of this because popular sovereignty is the belief that government is created by and subject to the will of the people. The laws are best made by the whole of the people and the community tends to obey the laws
