    Authority Of Jesus Christ Series

    Contributed by Jaeyoun Chang on Jan 29, 2026
     | 150 views

    Jesus went to Capernaum. It may have been because God's love for sinners who did not know or understand the Word of God sent Jesus to this earth, and because of Jesus' character of pitying sinners made him think that he should somehow preach the gospel of life to them.

    Introduction In Nazareth of Galilee, where he grew up, Jesus read the prophecy of the prophet Isaiah in the synagogue on the Sabbath and said that it had come true. Jesus declared that he was the anointed Messiah who would preach the gospel to the poor, free the captives of sin, and open their ...read more

     | 4,683 views

    In this first sermon in the series on the Gospel of Mark, we want to answer the questions: who was Mark and why is he an unlikely author of a Gospel.

    A. One day a woman was cleaning her house and singing Gospel songs as she worked. 1. She began singing, “Soon and very soon, we are going to see the king...” 2. A few minutes later, she heard her young son in the next room and he was singing the same song, but something a little off. 3. Listen to ...read more

    Peter indicates that our salvation should impact how we related to governmental authority. Submission is not a popular topic, but it is needful, in our rebellious & self-gratifying society. Submission is recognition of God¡¯s right to govern our lives.

    1 PETER 2: 13-17 RESPECT CIVIL AUTHORITY [Renewing Hope Series] [Romans 13:1-7 / Acts 4:19-20; 5:29] From this point on 1 Peter discusses the effect of our salvation on our life and relationships.

    In this section of Mark's Gospel, we see Jesus finalizing His authority. We see His superior wisdom, knowledge and power as He is confronted by three groups of Jewish religious leaders and rises above each confrontation.

Christian Herter was governor of Massachusetts back in the 1950s and one day when he was campaigning for a second term in office, he went looking for votes at a church barbecue. 1.

    Matthew 8 demonstrates Jesus’ authority in miracles and ministry. Jesus’ words and works show us the depth and extent of His authority. Our call is to walk under that suthority as we hear and heed his instruction.

    Matthew 7 ends with the amazement of the crowds who heard Jesus teachings. They observed that Jesus spoke with authority and not as their teachers of the law or scribes. We noticed several passages last week about the fear of the Lord and its importance to our lives as Christians. Without the ...read more

    In our study of Luke, in the beginning of chapter 20 we find the religious leaders desparate to discredit Jesus and they openly challenge His authority!

    Read Luke 20:1-8… Set the stage: Chapter 20 continues the final week of Jesus, after He has entered Jerusalem and after He has made a scene in His clearing of the Temple and chided the money changers and crooked business practices that took place in the Temple! On a side note, when Jesus ...read more
