preached about the “Authority in the Church”.
Jesus gave a ministry unto the church to pastor the body, because we can’t pastor ourselves. When we get saved, we have to submit ourselves to the ministry. You can’t just submit to Christ, and not His Body.
Mt 7:29
People in Jesus' time were used to reasoning about the scriptures, much like a lot of people do today. They like to pick their favorite preacher, one who agrees with their opinion, pets them, and is always kind to them. Actually our favorite preacher should be the one, that doesn’t understand us.
Jesus taught with authority and he is able to give authority to others. Those chosen people are supposed to teach, preach or sing with authority. If you are not sure what you do or don’t know if you’re able to, you should just not do it.
1Co 12:28
Jesus gave gifts to the church, a government, where He sets the members. He doesn’t ask you or anybody, He just puts the members, as it pleases Him and we have to be obedient,
