(Heath Rogers)GENERAL AND SPECIFIC AUTHORITY
Previous articles in this series have set forth the need for authority in religious matters, the proper source of authority, and how to establish what God has authorized.

(by Heath Rogers)
"Now when He came into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people confronted Him as He was teaching, and said, ‘By what authority are You doing these things? And who gave You this authority?'" (Matt. 21:23).
