Church denies God’s power!
If you have witnessed miracles like I have or even just listened to others recount miraculous stories – one common thread will emerge. There will be one person in the story or listening to the story who is amazed or stunned by the hand of God. My dad told a true story about a church who was devastated to learn that a bar would be built just one block from their church property.
