On Trinity Sunday the Matthew 18:19 passage in which Jesus sends his  disciples into the world to preach and baptize in the name of the  father, and the Son and the Holy Spirit (The Trinity).  Little attention  is given to Jesus' words before His command that say, "All authority in  heaven and earth has been given to me."  In our society today, with  protests, rioting, looting, we have a huge problem with "authority".   What is Jesus' authority? How are we to understand that authority in  light of the authority that is in the world.
