The Authority of Jesus

Because every word of Christ is true as God's word, we must hear it willingly, recognizing its authority as His authority and be ready to believe and obey everything He says.

I. The Authority of Jesus in His Words vv 14-18
II. The Authority of Jesus in His Actions vv 19-23
III. The Necessity of Righteous Judgment in how we live and how we treat others. v 24

• NOTE -- During the message I misspoke. The Arian controversy was in the 4th century (300s AD), not the 3rd century as I indicated.
