Unraveling Total Authority: Exploring Spiritual Dominion Through Scripture

Unraveling Total Authority: Exploring Spiritual Dominion Through Scripture

What if the authority of the spiritual realm could be understood through the pages of the Bible? Journey with me, Chaplain Terry Warner, as we unravel the mysteries of "Total Authority." Through a thought-provoking exploration of scriptures from Genesis to Ephesians, we trace the profound transfer of dominion from Adam to Satan and then the redemptive path through Jesus Christ. This episode promises to illuminate your understanding of spiritual authority, offering insights into why a human body was essential for Jesus to reclaim what was lost.

Join the discussion as we navigate through pivotal chapters of the Gospel of John, examine the majestic nature of God's creation outlined in Psalm 8 and Matthew 21, and reflect on the significance of Jesus' dual identity as both the Son of God and the Son of Man. With a foundation built on scripture, this episode invites you to see how divine authority is interwoven with humanity's place in creation. Prepare for an enlightening exploration that challenges conventional thought and inspires spiritual reflection.

"He has shown you, O Man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?" (Micah 6:8)

00:00:20.355 --> 00:00:23.617
Hello friend Chaplain Terry Warner here.

00:00:23.617 --> 00:00:27.646
Hello friend Chaplain Terry Warner here.

00:00:27.646 --> 00:00:32.091
The title of this podcast is going to be Total Authority.

00:00:32.091 --> 00:00:40.253
It's podcast number S4E51, season 4, e51.

00:00:40.253 --> 00:00:49.484
It will air or be published on December the 16th, 2024 at 1 am in the morning, so you can get up early and get it.

00:00:49.484 --> 00:00:50.587
You can be first.

00:00:52.531 --> 00:01:04.715
All right, let's look at our foundation scriptures 1 John 3.23, proverbs 18.10, john, chapters 12 through 17.

00:01:04.715 --> 00:01:10.987
That's the gospel of John, and those are chapters 12 through 17,.

00:01:10.987 --> 00:01:12.975
And Ephesians 1, 1 through 3.

00:01:12.975 --> 00:01:18.852
A lot of scripture in this, but you'll understand why and you'll see why as we go along.

00:01:18.852 --> 00:01:26.974
Let's start in Genesis 1, 26-31, where Adam receives his authority.

00:01:28.281 --> 00:01:48.641
God said Let us, father, son and Holy Spirit, make mankind in our image, after our likeness, and let them have complete authority over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the tame beasts and over all the earth and over everything that creeps upon the earth.

00:01:48.641 --> 00:01:54.492
Psalm 104, 30 says, referring to the Holy Spirit.

00:01:54.492 --> 00:01:55.894
Oh, listen to this.

00:01:55.894 --> 00:02:07.495
Psalm 104, verse 30, referring to the Holy Spirit in creation, breathing God's word on the earth to replenish it.

00:02:07.495 --> 00:02:16.625
So, as the earth needs things, god's word, his breath of his words, replenish the earth.

00:02:16.625 --> 00:02:20.468
Hebrews 1, 2, verse 2.

00:02:20.468 --> 00:02:29.281
But in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he has appointed heir of all things.

00:02:29.281 --> 00:02:32.727
Now jump over to Hebrews 11, 3.

00:02:32.727 --> 00:02:51.721
He is the sole expression of the glory of God, the light being the outreign or radiance of the divine, and he is the perfect imprint and very image of God's nature, upholding and maintaining and guiding and propelling the universe by his mighty word of power.

00:02:51.721 --> 00:03:04.366
When he had, by offering himself, accomplished our cleansing of sins and riddance of guilt, he sat down at the right hand of the divine majesty on high.

00:03:04.366 --> 00:03:08.051
He sat down not because he was tired.

00:03:08.051 --> 00:03:15.533
He sat down because he was finished, had completed everything.

00:03:17.909 --> 00:03:19.699
Now let's jump back to the Garden of Eden.

00:03:19.699 --> 00:03:22.840
Adam eats the fruit and gives his authority to Satan.

00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:27.371
Now Satan has a body and Adam's authority to rule and control this earth.

00:03:27.371 --> 00:03:32.230
If you're going to be in control on this earth, you've got to have a body.

00:03:32.230 --> 00:03:37.629
If you're going to do anything on this earth, you've got to have a body, otherwise you're a ghost or dead.

00:03:37.629 --> 00:03:38.912
Dead.

00:03:38.912 --> 00:03:39.800
People don't vote.

00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:40.962
Ghosts don't vote.

00:03:40.962 --> 00:03:44.631
I know they sometimes, but that doesn't happen.

00:03:44.631 --> 00:03:54.362
So Adam's authority, then, has now been controlled or taken over by the devil.

00:03:54.383 --> 00:03:54.963
Psalm 8.

00:03:54.963 --> 00:04:01.054
O Lord, our Lord, how excellent, majestic and glorious is your name in all the earth.

00:04:01.054 --> 00:04:05.929
You have set your glory on or above the heavens.

00:04:05.929 --> 00:04:14.841
Out of the mouth of babes and unweaned infants, you have established strength because of your foes, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.

00:04:14.841 --> 00:04:18.846
Matthew 21, 15 and 16.

00:04:18.846 --> 00:04:24.192
When I view and consider that's where your references are.

00:04:24.192 --> 00:04:37.547
Now I'm going to pick up in verse 3, back in Genesis when I view and consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars let me back up.

00:04:37.547 --> 00:04:39.449
I got offline.

00:04:39.449 --> 00:04:46.002
I'm going to pick back up in Psalm 8, verse 3.

00:04:46.021 --> 00:04:55.514
When I view and consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars which you have ordained and established, what is man?

00:04:55.514 --> 00:05:07.160
That you are mindful of him, and the son of earth-born man that you care for him.

00:05:07.160 --> 00:05:08.860
Pay attention to that.

00:05:08.860 --> 00:05:09.502
Jesus said I am the son of God.

00:05:09.502 --> 00:05:10.184
He jesus said I am the son of god.

00:05:10.184 --> 00:05:10.925
He also said I am the son of man.

00:05:10.966 --> 00:05:13.072
When he was here on earth, he called himself the son of man.

00:05:13.252 --> 00:05:13.512
Why?

00:05:14.274 --> 00:05:20.329
Because you have to be a man and have a body in order to rule and control anything on this earth.

00:05:21.230 --> 00:05:26.740
God, as a spirit, did not have the legal authority to come into this world and change things.

00:05:26.740 --> 00:05:29.607
He had to be through a man.

00:05:29.607 --> 00:05:32.894
That's why it was necessary for him to send Jesus Christ.

00:05:32.894 --> 00:05:36.682
All right, verse five.

00:05:36.682 --> 00:05:43.762
Yet you have made him but a little lower than God or heavenly beings, and have crowned him with glory and honor.

00:05:43.762 --> 00:05:46.726
You have made him to have dominion over the works.

00:05:46.726 --> 00:05:55.428
1 Corinthians, 15, 27, ephesians 1, 22.

00:05:55.428 --> 00:06:08.730
And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.

00:06:08.730 --> 00:06:21.055
There's no way that man or adam could return and regain his original position once he gave his heart to the devil.

00:06:21.055 --> 00:06:32.255
That's why jesus had to be come in, had to be born of a virgin, had to be come in, had to be born of a virgin, had to be sinless, had to be all man and all God.

00:06:32.255 --> 00:06:38.127
First Corinthians, 15, 27 and Ephesians 1, 22.

00:06:38.127 --> 00:06:50.365
And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.

00:06:50.365 --> 00:06:53.487
Hebrews 2, 6 through 8.

00:07:00.940 --> 00:07:04.247
It has been solemnly and earnestly said in a certain place.

00:07:04.247 --> 00:07:06.752
What is man that you are mindful of?

00:07:06.752 --> 00:07:09.620
Him, said in a certain place.

00:07:09.620 --> 00:07:10.382
What is man that you are mindful of?

00:07:10.382 --> 00:07:15.392
Him, or the son of man that you graciously and helpfully care for and visit and look after him For some little time?

00:07:15.392 --> 00:07:18.706
You have ranked him lower than and inferior to the angels.

00:07:18.706 --> 00:07:24.142
You have crowned him with glory and honor and set him over the works of your hands.

00:07:24.142 --> 00:07:29.213
Now, psalm 8, verses 4 through 6.

00:07:29.213 --> 00:07:33.550
For you have put everything in subjection under his feet.

00:07:33.550 --> 00:07:39.451
Now, in putting everything in subjection to man, he left nothing outside of man's control.

00:07:39.451 --> 00:07:45.952
But at present we do not yet see all things subject to him, man in other words.

00:07:45.952 --> 00:07:57.040
But we are able to see Jesus, who was ranked lower than the angels for a little while, crowned with glory and honor because of his having suffered death.

00:07:57.040 --> 00:07:58.644
That's past tense.

00:07:58.644 --> 00:08:07.026
In order, by the grace and the unmerited favor of God to us sinners, he might experience death for every individual person.

00:08:08.569 --> 00:08:12.064
Now let's jump back into Psalm 8, verse 7.

00:08:12.064 --> 00:08:22.228
All sheep and oxen, yes, and the beasts of the field, the birds of the air and the fish of the sea and whatever passes along the path of the seas.

00:08:22.228 --> 00:08:26.002
O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth.

00:08:26.002 --> 00:08:43.644
So let's recap here a little bit God created Adam and Eve, put them in the garden, and what we have happened then is we have mankind, Adam and Eve, starting with Adam and Eve, and when the two were married or consummated their marriage, they became one flesh.

00:08:43.644 --> 00:08:52.864
And in being one flesh there's neither jew nor greek, gentile or slave or free or bond or whatever.

00:08:52.864 --> 00:08:56.110
We're all one in christ, jesus.

00:08:56.110 --> 00:08:59.254
Christ being the head we be in the body.

00:08:59.254 --> 00:09:01.725
The church is the body of christ.

00:09:02.746 --> 00:09:06.514
Jesus came to earth for us because we could not pay the.

00:09:06.514 --> 00:09:26.815
Jesus came to earth for us because we could not pay the requirement of sin that Adam brought about when he ate the fruit with Eve, and Eve gave him the fruit.

00:09:26.815 --> 00:09:30.100
So Jesus comes in, born of a virgin, he's sinless, but he's also God in the spirit.

00:09:30.100 --> 00:09:37.481
He's 100% God and 100 man.

00:09:37.481 --> 00:09:41.905
He goes to the cross and dies for our sins in our place, goes to hell.

00:09:41.905 --> 00:09:43.246
Dies, I mean dies, d-e-a-d.

00:09:43.246 --> 00:09:46.370
Dies, graveyard dead.

00:09:46.370 --> 00:09:59.022
The father raises him from the dead after three days and three nights in hell, crowns him with glory and gives him a name above every name that at the name of jesus, every knee shall bow.

00:09:59.022 --> 00:10:02.152
Of things in heaven, things on earth, things under the earth.

00:10:02.152 --> 00:10:10.052
He spoils all principalities, powers and devils and demons and just wreaks havoc and exposes Satan for all that he is.

00:10:10.052 --> 00:10:27.429
And then he sits down on the right hand of the Father and he sits there with him because he has completed his mission Not because he's tired, but he sits down and has completed until his enemies be made his footstool.

00:10:27.429 --> 00:10:30.321
How's that going to happen?

00:10:30.321 --> 00:10:32.184
We're just a puny little human being.

00:10:32.184 --> 00:10:34.188
I'll tell you how it happens.

00:10:34.188 --> 00:10:48.020
The body of christ, jesus christ, sends the holy spirit on this earth and giving it and puts it inside the believers, and given it and puts it inside the believers.

00:10:48.642 --> 00:10:52.586
Now, when we pray, heal Mary Smith, then we've got to take Mary Smith.

00:10:52.586 --> 00:10:54.990
We've got one or two things we've got to do.

00:10:54.990 --> 00:11:05.707
We've got to take the Holy Spirit down to see Mary Smith, or somebody has got to take the Holy Spirit down to see Mary Smith.

00:11:05.707 --> 00:11:24.870
We can, through some instances and sometimes anoint, like handkerchiefs and cloths and prayer cloths as a point of contact, and pray for the anointing, and then, when that person grabs that handkerchief or that cloth, they release their faith and when they do, they're healed.

00:11:24.870 --> 00:11:30.321
So now, well, chaplain terry, how are we going to do all that?

00:11:30.442 --> 00:11:35.852
We're going to get into that, but not this session, because it takes a little bit to get into it.

00:11:35.852 --> 00:11:40.505
We're going to have another session yet first, but I'm going to make you understand and see.

00:11:40.505 --> 00:11:58.160
I'm not the Holy Spirit's going to let you understand and see that the total authority and stuff we have on this earth to rule and reign over the devil in complete victory, jesus is Lord.

00:11:58.160 --> 00:12:00.067
Now, either that's true in your life or it's not true in your life.

00:12:00.067 --> 00:12:05.144
And if it's not true in your life, then trust Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior.

00:12:05.144 --> 00:12:10.541
Get the Holy Spirit within you and then let him teach you and it will be true in your life.

00:12:10.541 --> 00:12:17.330
Jesus will be Lord of your life and you can live the life with Jesus on this earth.

00:12:17.330 --> 00:12:22.635
When you die and when you go to heaven, praise the Lord.

00:12:22.635 --> 00:12:24.666
You have a blessed day.

00:12:24.666 --> 00:12:27.769
In Jesus' name Amen.

00:12:28.821 --> 00:12:30.106
Please like and share this.

00:12:30.106 --> 00:12:37.349
If you haven't accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, just read Romans 10, 9 and 10.

00:12:37.349 --> 00:12:45.245
For if thou shalt confess with thy mouth Jesus Christ is Lord and believe in thy heart that I have raised you from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

00:12:45.245 --> 00:12:48.905
For with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation.

00:12:48.905 --> 00:12:52.274
Praise the Lord, welcome to the family.

00:12:52.274 --> 00:12:55.548
Let me know you gave your heart to the lord.

00:12:55.548 --> 00:12:58.206
Well, I sort of got carried away there.

00:12:58.206 --> 00:13:06.610
I think I'll leave it like it is, because life is has to be able to overcome all the ups and downs.

00:13:06.610 --> 00:13:13.991
So again let me say you have a blessed day In Jesus' name.

00:13:14.980 --> 00:13:18.532
