Yes. Back around the mid 90's there was a huge hurricane that was heading towards the Hawaiian Islands where I was stationed. It was going to bring about some major disaster, and I knew it inside. I asked The Lord if I could pray for the hurricane to not hit the islands and He said yes. So I...

He was and is, it's just that politics has become a big machine in America, big enough to try and take down your political opponent and keep ahold of power at any cost and any means necessary.

The cross of Christ was His death to self, death to the flesh, hence the phrase "take up your cross." Carnal Christians is what Paul is referring to here. They are born again Christians, but do not see any importance in Spiritual things, only social activities, fleshly churchianity. They are...

I don't dismiss things so easily. GOD is never down for the count, never. He always has backup plans for backup plans. I don't think for one minute that we will never see anymore Wigglesworths or Etters, in fact, I think GOD is raising some up right now.

Lol, you're funny Oscarr. You really have no idea what GOD will do through the right person(s), but go ahead and make your wild predictive declarations, if you must.

You can, but I'm more interested in investing my time with GOD and seeing His outcome happen.

I already told you before, people back then were more focused on GOD and His word. There wasn't any internet and inappropriate content sites and whatnot, there was a much greater dependency on GOD for everything. We have a shared responsibility with GOD on His manifestations down here. If we are not pursuing...

Why was all the miracles happening in the late 1700's with Finney? Why was they happening in the late 1800's and early 1900's with Etter? Why were they happening during the times of Wigglesworth, the Jeffrey Brothers, Lake and others? Why were they happening then?

You and swordsperson sound about the same when you badmouth other Christians.

Lol,.... that's a complete stretch of the truth. He's never been a faith healer. He's been a fraud, but I don't anyone claiming he is some world-wide known faith healer.

The example of Acts 5 is correct. If GOD was not with us Pentecostal folks, we would have died out long ago. MacArthur tried badmouthing us also, if it didn't work for him it's not going to work for anyone else..

Jesus is our example in this. We are to do HIs works. His words, not mine. You wonder why GOD is not performing healings and miracles anymore,......... I'm giving you the answers.

Actually He is. GOD has chosen to predominantly operate through us, just like Jesus, and for that to happen He needs a holy vessel,..... which leads us to the current problem at hand. People are more worried about other things instead of GOD. It takes a Smith Wigglesworth, a Maria...

Now in that regard, you're somewhat correct. But if you think about it, is it really GOD not choosing or people not wanting more?

No it means that GOD is with us whether you think the theology is correct or not, just like in Acts 5.

Lol,... you have nothing to worry about, it's going to be promoted towards mature Pentecostal types, not anyone else, so you have no reason to worry. You will be perfectly fine with your critical text types.

I would say you've picked up the wrong idea about any of us. I can say that all of us triune believing Pentecostal types are big time bible believers, we just seek the understanding of scripture more from The Holy Spirit than relying upon just our own understanding/reasoning. We want truth, and...

That's not what I said you said. What I said, was that you said that beyond the Apostles, no one is taught by The Holy Spirit anymore. And again, I'm unaware of any denomination or faith group that holds to such a belief/teaching. I can go back in the thread and dig it up if you like. You...

Well,... does that mean that any of those guys are correct in this regard?? If you're going to try and reason things out and specify that no one besides Apostles performed miracles in scripture, well you're going to run up against the problem of Stephen and Phillip being normal lay people doing...

lol, come on Oscarr, you can't be moving the goalposts. You said only the "Apostles" did miracles.
