Do you know the POWER of God?

Published on Updated on Bible, Power of God, Spirituality

The Lord Jesus told the religious leaders they were in error because they did not know the Scriptures nor the POWER of God. Do you know the POWER of God?

 

 

There are two great traps that many Christians fall into. The Lord Jesus describes them both:

  • Many Christians do not know the Scriptures. Instead, their beliefs emanate from culture or tradition or their own experiences. However, if our beliefs are not rooted in the Scriptures, our beliefs are built on sand. We Christians need to dig deep into the Scriptures.
  • Many Christians do not know the power of God. Instead, all we have are intellectual pursuits and arguments. Or dogma. We need to directly experience the power of God in our lives.

Are you a conduit of the genuine power of God to the people in your life? Is your Christian leader?
