Absent any consideration of the 1st through 3rd Century, succeeding generations of believers came to rely on the Miraculous versus the Moral as it came to considerations relative to the Kingdom’s advance.
Each succeeding generation seems to have forgotten the parable of the leaven in the lump of dough.
To me, personally, 2 things are obvious: 1) the lump of dough is to be and will be leavened, and 2) we haven’t the foggiest idea as to what the final product will look like.
In both areas we have failed, historically, and abjectly.
Might we not be more judicious in our focus on teaching the word rightly handled while affording folk to be “…fully persuaded in their own minds…”
Just a thought

Mad Dog of the Middle East
Observing our President abjectly demonstrating obeisance to a foreign dignitary, it dawned on me where the real politick power lies.
No, it is not Achmadinnejad, though he is a bull in a china closet or maybe a rabid dog running wild.
But, in comparative terms he is a piker compared to Benyamin Netanyahu.
The later is far more likely to promote a catastrophic conflagration in the Middle East to the detriment of nations with little to no interest in the area, save for oil.
Maybe, this is ultimately for the long-term best.
Zionism will suffer a significantly long-term setback, the West will be forced to re-think its perspective and priorities, the East will rise to assume a new and long-term role in civilization’s march, allowing Christianity time to reassess its fascination with Zionism and return, after years of suffering, to a more biblically oriented Gospel of the kingdom focus.
Hey…this is just one man’s focus having observed 60+ years of Evangelicalism’s infatuation with a biblically bankrupt ideology.
Oh, well; we live and hopefully learn
