God designed us to be in relationship to Him, and so we are not designed to be independent of God. What we try to do on our own will ultimately fail. He also doesn't ask us to do anything that we cannot do through Him. This capacity for love is possible for any Christian who is submitted to God. Check out this story:
Corrie Ten Boom Story on Forgiving
This supernatural power you speak of i just don't see anywhere in the world. I don't see miracles in any capacity as compared to what is in the Bible.
And that saddens me. I do know of one public exception of a Christian woman who instantly forgave a man who without repentance shot and paralyze her, but he didn't kill her or anyone she loved. Nevertheless, She also wanted the man to go free. Amazing! I would have thrown the Old Testament punishemt at him. So it is possible through God's love to do this in some capacity. I just don't understand why a person who wants to do great harm should be forgiven...and why that is such a crime...when God gave us the emotions that make us struggle with this battle. Some of us are going to lose this battle...is that so bad!
Think about all the devoted Christians who truly were dependent on God to heal there sick without going to a doctor. They believed in the miracles of God. They had the the faith of Abraham. When their Abraham moment came their precious kids died in there arms from a simple infection that man made antibiotics cure today quite routinely. I can't imagine the sorrow, dread and disappointment when reality set in! And God has his regrets also...after the fall of Adam...God speaks of his regret for creating man. So not all is perfect! We struggle to find our way even when God is holding our hand...so why the judgment...It's not necessary because by nature we are born losers and sinners. If you don't believe me...look up Genesis and reflect on God having regret for his creation and all the attempts to make it right. I'm just trying to see things for what they are..what promises are real and what promises are not. I'm not trying to prove anything about God...I can't. I appreciate your response...Take care...threedog
