Authority from heaven
1. THE AUTHORITY
FROM HEAVEN
How can we ïŹnd it, know it, and follow it?
2. The Authority from Heaven
âJesus entered the temple courts, and, while he was teaching,
the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him. âBy
what authority are you doing these things?â they asked. âAnd
who gave you this authority?â Jesus replied, âI will also ask you
one question. If you answer me, I will tell you by what authority
I am doing these things. Johnâs baptismâwhere did it come
from? Was it from heaven, or from men?â They discussed it
among themselves and said, âIf we say, âFrom heaven,â he will
ask, âThen why didnât you believe him?â But if we say, âFrom
menââwe are afraid of the people, for they all hold that John
was a prophet.â So they answered Jesus, âWe donât know.â Then
he said, âNeither will I tell you by what authority I am doing
these things.â(Matthew 21:23â27 NIV)
3. The Authority from Heaven
THE AUTHORITY OF THE FATHER
âThere is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not
accept my words; that very word which I spoke will condemn
him at the last day. For I did not speak of my own accord, but
the Father who sent me commanded me what to say and
how to say it. I know that his command leads to eternal life.
So whatever I say is just what the Father has told me to
say.ââ (John 12:48â50 NIV)
4. The Authority from Heaven
THE AUTHORITY OF THE FATHER
âDo you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in
Me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on My
own authority; but the Father who dwells in Me does the
works. Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me,
or else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves.â
(John 14:10â11 NKJV)
5. The Authority from Heaven
THE AUTHORITY OF THE FATHER
ââI have manifested Your name to the men whom You have
given Me out of the world. They were Yours, You gave them to
Me, and they have kept Your word. Now they have known that
all things which You have given Me are from You. For I have
given to them the words which You have given Me; and they
have received them, and have known surely that I came forth
from You; and they have believed that You sent Me.â
(John 17:6â8 NKJV)
6. The Authority from Heaven
THE AUTHORITY OF THE FATHER
âJesus answered and said to him, âIf anyone loves Me, he will
keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come
to him and make Our home with him. He who does not love
Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is
not Mine but the Fatherâs who sent Me.â
(John 14:23â24 NKJV)

all ïŹesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You
have given Him.â
(John 17:1â2 NKJV)
9. The Authority from Heaven

âHowever, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide
you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority,
but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things
to come. He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine
and declare it to you. All things that the Father has are Mine.
Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it to
you.â
(John 16:13â15 NKJV)
10. The Authority from Heaven

ââThese things I have spoken to you while being present with
you. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will

your remembrance all things that I said to you.â

âFor even if I should boast somewhat more about our
authority, which the Lord gave us for ediïŹcation and not
for your destruction, I shall not be ashamedââ
(2 Corinthians 10:8 NKJV)
17. The Authority from Heaven
THE AUTHORITY OF THE THE SCRIPTURES
âFor we did not follow cunningly devised fables when we made
known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but
were eyewitnesses of His majesty. For He received from God the
Father honor and glory when such a voice came to Him from the
Excellent Glory: âThis is My beloved Son, in whom I am well
pleased.â And we heard this voice which came from heaven when we
were with Him on the holy mountain. And so we have the
prophetic word conïŹrmed, which you do well to heed as a light
that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star
rises in your hearts; knowing this ïŹrst, that no prophecy of
Scripture is of any private interpretation, for prophecy
never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as
they were moved by the Holy Spirit.â (2 Peter 1:16â21 NKJV)
18. The Authority from Heaven
THE AUTHORITY OF THE THE SCRIPTURES
âAll Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is proïŹtable for
doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in
righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly
equipped for every good work.â
(2 Timothy 3:16â17 NKJV)
