What does the Bible say about all authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth?

Bible Topic · WEB

The Bible teaches that the risen Jesus Christ possesses supreme authority over all creation, and He exercises it for the salvation, sanctification, and mission of His people. In Matthew 28:18-20, Christ grounds the church's calling to make disciples in His universal rule and promises His abiding presence. His authority includes forgiving sins, as Matthew 9:6-8 shows, and granting peace and sending witnesses, as in John 20:19-24. Hebrews 1:2 declares that the Father appointed the Son heir of all things, while Philippians 2:12-13 comforts believers that God works in them to will and to act. Therefore Christians obey Christ confidently, rejecting human traditions that diminish His sufficiency.
