    By healing the centurion’s servant, Jesus establishes his power over the material world, but it’s the spiritual reality of faith to which Jesus draws our attention.

    INTRODUCTION • Most of us are acquainted with the ideas of formal and informal authority. • Formal authority is attached to someone’s title or position. • More often, though, people have informal authority over us. • We’ll listen to the people we trust and do what they ask because we trust them. ...read more

    Our authority for faith and practise is the written Word of God. This becomes the standard by which we conduct our lives.

    “As for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.

    Paul is talking about the way some people questioned the way himself and other men of God were being paid by the Church. Questioning about administration is something natural.

    1 Corinthians 9:1-9 1 Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are not you my workmanship in the Lord? 2 If to others I am not an apostle, at least I am to you, for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord. 3 This is my defense to those who would examine me. 4 Do ...read more

    Why did God create mankind and establish a relationship with man? Why did God speak through prophets, through angels, and why did He send Jesus?

    AUTHORITY ACKNOWLEDGED John 2:1-16 People are curious about many things. Some are trivial and others are quite profound. Many questions we raise do not have clearly defined answers and we often wind up with a multitude of opinions that are likely to be in conflict. Many of life’s ...read more
