Matthew 7:28-29 Jesus Taught with Authority

²⁸And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine: ²⁹For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes. -Matthew 7:28-29 Bible, King James Version

In Jesus' day the scribes of the orthodox Religions claimed to have the authority to represent God but the people were astonished at the difference between their doctrine or teachings and the teachings of the Master Jesus Who was a true representative of  God. In this day and age we have exactly the same situation. The orthodox Religions including the Christian Religions claim to have the authority to represent God but because the Bible only contains about 30% of the Truth their teachings are astonishingly different from the teachings of the Masters including the Ascended Master Jesus.
