In this message, I challenge one of the most common assumptions in Christianity and show you why understanding the authority God gave to mankind is essential for real, lasting change. Many believers have been taught that when Adam fell, man lost authority and the devil gained it. The problem is simple: the Bible never says that. Authority was never transferred to Satan. The enemy has no power over your life except what comes through deception. He steals, kills, and destroys by lies, not by authority. I also explain why authority is the right to choose and why you still have it. God gave man dominion on the earth, not over other people, but over creation and over himself. This is why Jesus came as the Son of Man and lived by the power of the Holy Spirit
