"Who Am I? Part 5"
Daniel Valles

THEREFORE, WHAT JURISDICTIONAL AUTHORITY AM I UNDER?

My commission comes as a steward and servant, dependant on my work, whether faithful or other.  "For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works." - Matt. 16:27.  "Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets." - Luke 6:23.

I am rewarded for following the precepts found in God's Word.  "Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth." - Psalm 58:11.  "But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil." - Luke 6:35.  "If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward." - I Cor. 3:14.  "The labourer is worthy of his reward." - I Tim. 5:18.  "...thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great." - Rev. 11:18.

My primary commission is based in heaven.  "Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you." - Matthew 5:12.  "Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward." - II John 1:8.  "behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be." - Rev. 22:12.
