    Good point.

    For who is the greater, one who reclines at table or one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at table? But I am among you as the one who serves. (Luke 22)

    I don't disagree. But we must make sure we don't think that suffering and hardship is the source of power with God. Plenty of Christians have suffered over the ages and didn't walk in power. Walking in power is a matter of faith. Period. The name of Jesus through faith in that name.

    Using terms like, "libertards" isn't really helpful. It adds nothing to the discussion.

    Walking in power is not just doing healings, miracles, signs, finances etc. - it is the power to live godly and defeat sin and the power to stand strong in Christ in the midst of pressure and persecution
    Faith is seen when you see how people respond in hardships

    Many Pentes give testimonies of their faith when blessings are released but once those blessings momentarily cease their faith starts to unravel

    The NT picture of Paul is someone who had faith in all circumstances.....doing miracles and also singing while in prison

    It only annoys liberals... you know, baby killers.

    Calling satan names like "ol slewfoot" doesn't do anything to run him off, but it doesn't hurt anything either because nobody care if he gets mad or not since... he's already mad!
