291. Since the whole Deity is in the Lord, He has all power in the heavens and on earth. This too is what He says in John:
The Father has given everything into the Son's hand. John 3:35.
In the same book:
The Father gave the Son power over all flesh. John 17:2.
In Matthew:
All things were handed over to me by the Father. Matt. 11:27.
In the same book:
All power in heaven and on earth was given to me. Matt. 28:18.
Power of this kind is Divine.
