And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine:
For He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes
(Matthew 7:28-29).
It is always so. The message of Jesus Christ is utterly revolutionary, for it turns our gaze from the outside to the inside, and from man and his works to God.
He taught as one having authority. The greatest glory of the Spiritual Basis is that you begin to know. When you have obtained the smallest demonstration by means of prayer, you have experienced something that never leaves you. You have the witness of Truth within yourself, and this is the only authority worth having.
Just think; how wonderful it is to KNOW that our spiritual beliefs are as real as the Sun, moon and stars; to know that God is present with us and in us; and to know that all God’s promises are the truth and the only real authority and power.
Now, let us go out into the world today with ultimate authority to spread love, hope and faith to all those we touch so they can walk in the garden God gave us.
Knowing,
Z gardener
