    My Dear Brother:

    You really amaze me with a question like that. Especially when I read something like this. "Prayer Warriors We can look at the conditions of the world and faint or look at the possibilities of God and take faith." An individual that would write something like that I would perceive that he or she was saved. and that they know all about "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved" Of course you know all about this right? What really amazed me was when writing about Jesus can't you write it? Jesus is not a :, nor is a ... And as far as him having the authority.

    "Mt 28:18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Is that Authority or what?

    Do you think that Henry Ford had the authority to speak about the Model T?

    Do you think an artist has the authority to speak about his painting?

    The Bible starts off, "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth."

    In Job 38, when God speaks, the thing He brings up is creation.

    The Creator always has authority over the creation. The creation never has choices the Creator doesn't allow.

    God made your brain, ears and mouth. He numbered the hairs on your head and gave you the number of days you are to be on the planet. He knows the words you are going to say before they are formed on your lips.

    He can and does speak with you. How does He answer this question?

    i would say yes, Because there is no other name like the name of Jesus. To me, just to hear his name means authority, and love.

    As in "in the name of the Lord?" Why yes! Because all authority is given to Christ- He is our Savior and Lord, and Judge!

    To believers:

    Colossians 2:10

    and you have been given fullness in Christ, who is the head over every power and authority.
