[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 6091450, member: 24302"] So you have the power to heal? Can you get on a plane and fly to China and tell them about Jesus in Mandarin? The Apostles had miraculous powers. Why don't you? They were able to impart some of these gifts to others, such as the ability to speak to anyone in their own language. The Apostle Paul even chastised some for speaking in an unknown language at their worship service instead of the language the locals spoke. Told them it didn't do anyone any good if they didn't know what was being said. Not a matter of idolizing the Scriptures. They were given to us as our guide. What you're doing is elevating yourself to be the equivalent of the Apostles. You want people to listen to you, not them. You aren't what the Apostles were. You can't do what they did. You are an ordinary man. God made them more than ordinary on the Day of Pentecost, A.D. 33 [/QUOTE]
