God’s Authority In Christ And You

Contributed by Greg Nance on Jul 31, 2010

Jesus ministry demonstrated the authority of God. Not everyone applauded. The authority of God in us brings great blessing and responsibility. Do we take seriously the authority God has given us? Jesus did.

Imagine having a photo album of the events in Jesus’ life. That describes well what God has given us in the first gospel.
