Just authority, unless there is a direct quote and there isn't.
It was just authority, I will agree with you there. But where is that authority in the Name of Jesus if it is never spoke? That authority is practiced when we
SAY the Name of Jesus through Faith (acts 3:16). Just as Peter did in Acts. He turned and
said “ Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee:
In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.
Acts 3:6 Then Peter
said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.
Acts 16:18 And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved,
turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour.
What makes baptism any different Acts 2:38 Repent and be baptized everyone of you in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
The bible lets us know in Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
I am still waiting on you to tell me which person of the Trinity spoke through Isaiah. Please answer this question. There is only one answer so please oblige me with the answer.
And here are some more scriptures speaking on the Name of Jesus
Ephesians 5:20 Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;
Philippians 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
Philippians 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
Colossians 3:17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
2 Thessalonians 1:12 That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
2 Thessalonians 3:6 Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.
Hebrews 1:4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
Hebrews 6:10 For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
Hebrews 13:15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.
1 John 5:13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
Look Chemnitz I could go on and on all day long showing you how important that Name is. Tell me, what does that Name mean to you?
And please tell me why the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are never mentioned like the Name of Jesus. If you want I can, Its b/c All the fullness of the Godhead bodily is in Jesus. Col 2:9.
So now you say you believe that Power is the Father? Its bad enough that you insist that there are two people called Christ but now you are making the Father to being only an attribute
Well…now I am saying that I believe that you have a lack of knowledge concerning scripture. Not that I did not know that already. (teasing) But don’t take the bibles word for it. You would never do that…would you? Haha.
Its not me that said that. It was God himself. Or let me guess…I am taking it out of context again? Righhhht. * winks *
Matthew 26:64 Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
Mark 14:62 And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
Luke 22:69 Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.
God Bless
