; Eph 1:18-23; 2:1-7; 1Cor 12:12-14,27]

is another place in the KJV, where “authority” should have been used instead of the word “power.”

(KJV) And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

-23 (KJV) – The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, [19] And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, [20] Which he wrought in Christ [the anointed One], when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, [21] Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: [22] And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, [23] Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

, “And having spoiled principalities and powers, he [Jesus] made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. [His death, burial, and resurrection.]”

).

that the Holy Spirit prays through Paul that the eyes of your understanding [your spirit] being enlightened [opened to this truth]. You will never understand the authority with only your intellect – you must have spiritual revelation of it. You must receive it by faith.

-7 (KJV) – And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; [2] Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: [3] Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. [4] But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, [5] Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ [the anointed One], (by grace ye are saved;) [6] And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ [the anointed One] Jesus: [7] That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.

-6 we see that, “Even when we were dead in sins, [He] hath quickened us together with Christ, …And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.”

-14,27 (KJV) – For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. [13] For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. [14] For the body is not one member, but many…. [27] Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.

says, “But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.” We are one with Christ [the anointed One]. We are Christians [the anointed ones]. We are seated at the right hand of Almighty God. All things are under our feet. Amen.
