How Dumb is That?

Surely in this modern time things are different than when Jesus walked the earth in the flesh. Today we must have gentle little devils, who aren't trying to kill you. Maybe just to have a little fun with you and confuse you with little white lies. The sicknesses also are probably slight diseases, take a couple pills and check in the morning. They couldn't be trying to snuff out your ability to function. Plagues and pestilence, surely they are weaker, and not a real threat. Those who are mained or broken just haven't learn to be joyful always.

This is the hog wash that higher education would have us to believe. They say that after the New Testament was writen there is no longer a need for the manifestations of power from God. That in his wisdom, that time has passed.

Well then someone forgot to tell the devils. Talk to a person who is being tormented by an addiction to, (fill in the blank), and they will tell you stories of real agony, and physical horror. Go to a blind person and ask what great things they have seen. Go to the broken and tell them how great life is, and you will get a cuss'en you deserve. Will you hold a conversation with a lunatic?The bound can't set themselves free! All men are bond slaves of sin, (apart from Christ), that sin causes problems that they are incapable of repairing.

When Jesus was about to be crucified, he told his disciples; it is better for you that I go away, that you may recieve the Holy Spirit. After the resurection he said to the disciples wait to be impowered with the Spirit. Also that the promise was for all who would believe. As preached by Peter at penecost.

This is still the age of grace, is it not. This is still the age of the Spirit, or else how can you be born again? If this is so, then it's still the age of healings, and miracles, and gifts, and manifestations of the power of the Spirit. How can it not be? Are people sick? Are people in torment? Are there still the lost? If so that is the field of the Lord of the Harvest. Not mans wisdom, but the power of God.
