The Kingdom of God Cometh in Power - Paul M. Williams

1 Corinthians 4:20 The desperate need of the Church in this perilous hour is not to discover another five-step program for Church growth.  See where the arm of the flesh has gotten the Bride of Christ, she looks just like the world!! Where is the cutting distinction?  Where is the Kingdom of God in the midst of her?  Where is the unfettered reign of Christ and the overflow of His Spirit?  Instead, we've exchanged divine power for earthly power; God's wisdom for man's wisdom, and the saddest thing about it is, God's people don't know it any other way!!  They're happy to have it so!!  The number one question that should be being asked is not, "How can we get people back into Church; but how can we get God back in!!"  FRIENDS, WE NEED GOD!!  We need urgently to recover again the power of the Kingdom of Heaven, "For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power" (1 Cor. 4:20).
