Jesus regained the authority and commissioned his disciples to act in behalf of that authority. Jesus restored man s dominion under God. All authority is delegated by one in higher authority. Jesus imparted, delegated his spiritual authority to his followers. Jesus regained authority on earth, imparted this to followers.
All authority is delegated by one in higher authority and is limited.
After resurrection, Jesus had all authority in heaven and on earth. Jesus has restored man s ability to rule effectively over this planet. The only way man can regain authority given to Adam is to serve God. Because of Jesus victory, we ll ultimately have greater authority and power than was given Adam. We are therefore Christ s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us.
