Demonstrate the Kingdom


"Most of us would never buy a car without test-driving it. Without a demonstration, it is virtually impossible to experience all of the benefits of the car you intend to buy. Interestingly, statistics show that if a customer test-drives a car, he is much more likely to buy it. Similarly, people tend to respond much better to a demonstration of the power than a detailed "sales pitch" on the features and benefits of Heaven." Kevin Dedmon, The Ultimate Treasure Hunt

“My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power, 5 so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God’s power.” 1 Cor 2:4

“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Acts 1:8
