Exactly right Scooter.

This says elders also and not the entire church, small groups, etc.


Response: Except for the small group of elders. :lol:

It's okay though. 8)
What we need here is a good revival! lol

The subject was: "corporate prayer and strength in prayer (not just in corporate prayer)" But ever time I turn around and thinking we are in apples, we end up in peaches. It seem that you have never enjoy this expirence from you posting. Please take at least say a half day away from anybody and have a three, four, or six hour exprience with God and come back and tell us you didn't get strenght from it.

Faith comes by hearing the word of God and our strength is found there.

Then:
The prayer of faith shall save the sick not many prayers.


Now from this are you trying to tell me that the next time I get sick I need go and lessen to some one preach the word?????

Danny, you of all people going out context. You are mixing apples and oranges, the very thing that you have tried to make me out to be doing.

As far as the prayer of faith, I think that Scooter answer that for you. But now far Acts 12:5
Ac 12:5
¶ Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.

As you would say; the "church" meaning more then one

prayer was made They were praying, who ?

of the church The word church means more then one. So if you will open your eyes just and just amitt it, it was practiced in the NT.

As far as strenght goes please refur to first commit this post.
God Bless

I'm no referee, but ring the bell. Full Quiver needs a standing eight count. I see this as proof that he's scrambling to keep his argument alive even in the face of obvious reason. Just an observer though.
