Well you see mark was writting to persecuted christians in the time of Nero...Mark was trying to point out that jesus was persecuted too. One of the reasons Jesus was persecuted was because of the way he asserts himself with authority. Jesus was the Son of God so he had all the authority he wanted. But the Pharisees thought Jesus didn't deserve that authority. i guess Jesus' Authority mean't trouble.
(sorry for the really long answer)
To say that Jesus is Lord means acknowledging him as the ultimate authority and ruler in one's life. It signifies belief in his divinity and following his teachings and guidance.
God in heaven gave authority to Jesus. God is the creator and sustainer of the universe. He has all authority, and only from Him was Jesus given authority.
You can say be evangelists and spread the word of Jesus to all people.
Jesus isn't great, he's awesome
I believe in Jesus and God.
To ask in Jesus' name means to pray or make a request while invoking the authority and character of Jesus Christ. It signifies asking for something in alignment with Jesus' teachings and values.
He is God, and God is authority above all others.
That they are the inspired words of the ultimate authority, God.
Because the teachers of the law were annoyed because only God has the right to say your sins are forgiven, and they thought Jesus was committing blasphemy. But what they didn't realize was that Jesus is God in the flesh.
He didn't say that authority had been given to 'YOU'..or to any human.What he said was "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me."(Matthew 28:18 NIV)(Daniel 7:14/Matthew 11:27/Philippians 2:9). Here he was saying that God had given him (Jesus)authority to judge and command those on earth, so in this particular scripture, he was commanding his followers to preach to, and teach, others (Matthew 28:19+20).
To pray or act "in Jesus' name" means to do so with the authority and approval of Jesus Christ, acknowledging his teachings and following his example. It signifies a belief that one's actions are aligned with the will of Jesus and are done in accordance with his teachings.
No. The Bible says God can forgive sins not men and Jesus didn't give this authority to believers.
