Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction
Ecclesiastical jurisdiction is jurisdiction by Clergy, church leaders over other church leaders and over the laity. Overview Jurisdiction is a word borrowed from the legal system which has acquired a wide extension in theology, wherein, for example, it is frequently used in contradistinction to order, to express the right to administer sacraments as something added onto the power to celebrate them.

It was viewed as also ordained of God, who had dominion over his tempora ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
