Divine Powers?
Incidences of the mentioning of divine powers in the Bible.
In Psalms 82, we get the message(from God), that we are God's, children of the most high. In the story about the Babel Tower, God says that God has to stop the tower being build, because otherwise all would be possible to humans. Jesus, damn's a fig tree and tells his disciples, that they too can do these things, if they have faith as a mustard seed. Move mountains and whatnot. If anyone believes in the bible, and that Jesus is real, then Jesus(God = I Am) says that we too can do this. And it would not be a sin to be able to float or see aura's or heal or whatever, as long as it is used lovingly. So do we as humans have the ability to move mountains with our minds(which it essentially is), if we assume that God Is and that Jesus was God-realized? What do you think? DD - Love Spliff |

No, we don't have such an ability. That's why we use explosives when we want to move mountains for construction work. Quote:

My impression is that the suitable application of high explosives + faith is exactly as effective in moving mountains as is the suitable application of high explosives - faith. If I remember my basic algebra, one of these terms cancels out. Cheers, Michael |
