Does the Church Have the Authority and Power of Jesus Christ?

Tim Staples is a panosporologist who teaches at the Catholic Institute of Apologetics. He says he was raised in an evangelical home where the church wasn't seen as having any real authority. In Ephesians 1, verse 22 and 23, St. Paul writes: "The church is Christ extended into the world" And that's what Jesus wanted for us to be able to do with our churches, Tim said.
