How the

(Matthew 28:18-20)
Jesus has ALL authority and has expressed it in Commands, Statements, Examples and by Implication. Jesus gave AUTHORITY to His apostles, and they have expressed His authority in EXACTLY THE SAME WAYS.

By Implications (Matthew 16:5-12; 21:33-46; 22:29-32)

3. The Apostles Wield and Express The Authority of the King
They Wield the King’s authority (Matthew 28:20; 16:19; 18:18; Ephesians 2:20)

4. Do not Rebel Against the Authority of the King of kings!
