Only willful blindness (or complete ignorance of what the Scriptures actually say) could lead anyone to think that Jesus did NOT delegate His authority to specific men.

So Christ's authority only consists of those items? The claim was made '“All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me."' was given to the Apostles. 'ALL' of it given? Don't think so despite the claims of Catholics.

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?
