“And when he entered the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came up to him as he was teaching, and said, “By what authority are you doing these things, and who gave you this authority?” Jesus answered them, “I also will ask you one question, and if you tell me the answer, then I also will tell you by what authority I do these things.”‭‭Matthew‬ ‭21:23-24‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,
This sticks out because authority of Jesus and the Scriptures is a Major question of today also. It seems most people want to think of Jesus as a good wise person that we can pick and chose what He says. If we believe he has authority, then how can we pick and chose which parts of the Bible have authority and which ones don’t? He constantly debated with the Pharisees who wanted to obey certain parts and chose to ignore others. Please pray that we and our friends understand the Bible as the authority it is. Please pray for Jonnell, Cedric and Devon’s first meeting tonight.
