I am putting the finishing touches on a study I am doing on the Power of Love (Biblical) or God's Love or the Kingdom any way you want to label it. What struck me is that so many people seek out the powers that Christ had in His ministry, powers like healing the flesh and such but fail to seek or understand all the power that is ours that is "greater" John 14:12.
They seem to not understand that the what some call the showy gifts, were in fact, the power of revelation, that is to say they were there to reveal to the world the truth of the Messiah. But, after Christ's ascension, came the Holy Spirit and all the power of the Kingdom that we have to live out the revelation in our lives on a daily basis.
So my questions that I would like to present for discussion is what power do you see in scripture that we seldom live out in the flesh? How can we live in that power? And why do we not see that the power of the revelation is just that, the power to reveal who Christ is and that the real power is greater?
