Christ was commissioned by God, and therefore he had divine authority behind him. Jesus only had to speak, and his Word was potent with leprosies, with fevers, with dropsies, indeed, and with death itself; The name of Jesus is a mighty power in heaven, in earth, and in the deep places under the earth. There is no part of the universe where the King’s name is without influence; the warrant from his throne may be executed among angels, and among demons, and certainly shall not be powerless among the sons of men. “Where the word of a king is, there is power”; and where the name of the King of kings is on the proclamation, who shall be able to resist it? The name of “Jesus Christ of Nazareth” is full of power."
