"Apparently, you mean to say that Christ is the only authority of His Church"

Jesus Christ gives authority to those he gives authority to in varying times and situations.

Don't go out on a limb. :>)

But you didn't answer my questions. Do you think the Apostles had no authority? Do you think the bishops which the Apostles appointed in every city to which they travelled (as the New Testament records) had no authority? You agree that Christ gives authority to people. So, to whom did He give authority?
