"And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this?"
This question was asked by the high priests after learning Peter and John healed the man crippled from birth. The answer was "by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified."
I find it interesting that Christ asked something similar, as a test we can give to the hypocrites that give the adversary power to deceived.
"Wherefore, I the Lord ask you this question - unto what were ye ordained?"
(Doctrine and Covenants 50:13)
I guess the difference in what the correct answer is determines who are you following. What authority are you acting under and have you been called to do so? Knowing what the correct answer should be makes all the difference to me.
