Episode notes
Witness Is Demonstration and Speech
- Witnessing is not just verbal testimony but a demonstration of God's kingdom through healed, freed, and restored lives.
- True witness combines preaching with supernatural acts like healing and deliverance as Jesus taught and practiced.
Healing with Prayer and Bacon
- Bishop Wells shared a story of a friend whose grandmother healed a puncture wound using prayer and bacon due to lack of healthcare.
- This reflects the deep trust and tangible faith birthed in the African-American church through hardship and necessity.
Supernatural Love is Crucial
- Among spoken, supernatural, and sacrificial love, Emmanuel Church emphasizes spoken love but sees supernatural love as most critically needed.
- Without supernatural love, believers risk being more religious than truly impactful witnesses of God's power.
