6. Hebrews 2:1-11
Kingdom
• The word "kingdom" in this
passage refers to royal power and
dominion involving the license or
authority to rule. Jesus placed the
keys of the kingdom in the hands
of the church. We not only have
access to them but also have the
right to use them.
• In the Bible and in Jewish teaching
the handing over of keys implies
promotion to full authority.
But what is our actual
appointment?
• Jesus stated that He would give us
the authority to bind and loose.
The idea of binding and loosing
was a concept commonly used by
rabbis to signify the judicial
authority to forbid or permit.
When executed in partnership
with and obedience to the Lord,
we have the authority to direct
justice in cases held in the
heavenly court of law.

about with so great a cloud of witnesses,
let us lay aside every weight, and the sin
which doth so easily beset us, and let us
run with patience the race that is set
before us,
