Our generation is plagued with all sorts of extremism. One of such errors inflicted upon the 21st century Church is over-reliance on the pulpit at the expense ofthe power God intends to demonstrate through every believer. The pulpit and the man behind it are often deified while crippling spiritual laziness renders the average believer spiritually invalid and ineffective. Our generation is one erroneously taught that the authority of the believer is only effective in the clergy while everyone else must come to Pastors to find divine help. What an error!The Authority of the believer puts an immense amount of power in the pew (in the hands of every true believer)Mark 16:17-18"And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name, they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover."As true and as powerful as this scriptural passage is, believers in Christ are of different levels and also diverse in theamount of authority each person commands. In a family, although every bonafide member has some level of rights and authority over the commonwealth of the household, the status of each member determines what authority such a member has. For example, it is easy to say that an eight-year-old member of my family has authority over the remote control unit of the television set or to pick food up from the refrigerator, but we cannot assume that she has the sameauthority over the family van. There's Power in the Pew is written by divine inspiration to enlighten every Christian on the unimaginable power each of us possess - even without a Church's organisational title.
