Sorry for the delay--fighting off a bug.

So Christ's authority only consists of those items?

No, I didn't say that; I merely mentioned a few examples which refutes the nonsense idea that "Christ never delegated his authority to men"; He obviously did.

The claim was made 'All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me."' was given to the Apostles.

I must have missed that in the interim; by whom was this claim made? (I certainly didn't make it.)

'ALL' of it given? Don't think so despite the claims of Catholics.

Again: you'll have to show me where that claim was made--and it's a bit broad-brush of you to say that "Catholics" (implying "Catholics in general") make that claim, yes?

Didn't say you had, #35-36 made that implication.

Around here, it isn't the first time that has been implied. During the course of Catholic history, many of its leaders have made statements which far exceed the directions of the Lord in #36, making binding statements concerning the authority of the Catholic church that exceed those directions from the Lord.
