Jesus: on Authority
Hyperlinks within each question leads to the dialogue.
Questions to Jesus
- By what authority do you do these things?
- "But are you not Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph, the carpenter? Are not your father and mother, as well as your brothers and sisters, well known to many of us? How then is it that you appear here in God's house and declare that you have come down from heaven?"
Questions from Jesus
- "Will you go back to the easy path of the certainty and intellectual settledness of the religion of traditional authority ?"
- “To honor God-knowing leaders of the past may be worthwhile, but why in so doing, should you sacrifice the supreme experience of human existence: finding God for yourselves and knowing him in your own souls?"
- "But what chance does the Father have to appear as a God of supreme loyalties and divine ideals in the souls of men who give little or no time to the thoughtful contemplation of such eternal realities?"
