The power of oratory

Postby Pastor Gary » November 13th, 2008, 9:39 am

"The key to understanding ...lies in the oratory skills... With the cadence and fervor of a Baptist preacher, the charm of a country storyteller and the zeal and fury of a maniacal dictator, [he] could charm his followers to do anything -- even die for him...."

The rest of the story.
"God is excited to show you mercy. He rises to give you His compassion." (Isaiah 30:18)

"For surely, O LORD, you bless the righteous;
you surround them with your favor as with a shield." (Psalm 5:12)

From CNN...wonder why they're bringing this up now...sounds kinda familiar as of late.

I was going to say that you didn't have to worry about being that kind of orator Pastor Gary, you can't even convince someone to change their screen name :shock: , but then I just read your fantastic response on the Peerless Church subject and .... well, never mind, I'm sure your phone won't be (I guess ringing off the hook is invalid now) ringing or vibrating too much.
