One important question we should all be asking when it comes to spiritual matters is; what is the source of authority we all should be following from a spiritual perspective?

However, we have to wonder then, why are there so many religions teaching so many different doctrines? In this episode we seek to answer this question from God's word. We will discuss:
- Is it appropriate to ask the spiritual question, "By what authority are you doing these things and who gave You this authority?"
- How Bible authority is established
