Thank you.
I believe deputy authority is a faithless teaching. A teaching manufactured by fallen men who don't have enough faith in our living Lord Jesus to let him be the Lord of our lives, or their own lives. It's not their job.
Hebrews 2:17 For this reason he had to be made like them, fully human in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people.
