How does Christ's authority affect the church's mission?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's authority assures the church that their mission, rooted in His commands, will ultimately succeed.

Christ's authority is the cornerstone for the mission of the church. In Revelation 2, He emphasizes that the church must adhere to the works He has commanded, relying on His power and truth. As the sovereign God-man, He assures believers that as they remain faithful to the mission of declaring the gospel and opposing error, they will be sustained and empowered. The promise of Christ's presence and authority means that the church's efforts in preaching the truth will not be in vain; they carry eternal significance and have the backing of divine authority.
