Jurisdiction is a legal term, but authority is faith/spiritual term, people follow those that are gifted because they want to receive from that gift.
People followed Jesus because he spoke with authority and demonstrated it with signs following.
Authority and power gives your credibility and creedance where words or office alone won't do. I would direct your attention to
I Cor. 4:19-20
19 But I will come to you very soon, if the Lord is willing, and then I will find out not only how these arrogant people are talking, but what power they have. 20For the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk but of power.
