JESUS HAS ALL AUTHORITY, BUT DOES THE SCRIPTURE? PART 2
All authority in heaven and earth is given to Jesus (Matthew 28:18). Not some, but ALL!
Jesus carried the authority of deity, being fully God and fully man. God the Father was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Jesus (Colossians 1:19). Jesus claimed that authority when He stated, “I and the Father are one” (John 10:30; John 17:21).
Jesus’ powerful authority distinguished him from the teachers of the law and prophets. And, in this same passage, demons, under the control and power of Satan, are subject to the authority of Jesus.
