Do you ever think that God might have gave us all some sort of power/gift? I know i read somewhere that he did so that we should use it when we need it, but some ppl tell me its not Gods its the Devils. So anyone know about that?

We receive spiritual gifts, such as the gift of pastor/teacher, the gift of encouragement, the gift of music, the gift of helps, etc. We do not receive any special "powers" such as tongues, prophecy and discernment...that is of the devil.

It is possible to have a power/gift though a demon. There are accounts in the Bible about different people who had 'powers' because they where possessed by a demon (Acts 16:16-18)
(Where did you read that God gave us powers?)

No, you cant make #a million a "God" while that's barely defining the different (2-4) motives you gave GOD = father, son, holy spirit Jesus= God in the international because of the fact the son Holy Spirit= no longer a actual being it incredibly is how i became taught it while i became a Baptist

God gives all of us gifts it's called gifts of the spirit they include;
1 Corinthians 12:8-11 :
words of wisdom;
words of knowledge;
faith;
healing;
miracle-working;
prophecy;
distinguishing of spirits;
tongues;
interpretation of tongues.
4-11God's various gifts are handed out everywhere; but they all originate in God's Spirit. God's various ministries are carried out everywhere; but they all originate in God's Spirit. God's various expressions of power are in action everywhere; but God himself is behind it all. Each person is given something to do that shows who God is: Everyone gets in on it, everyone benefits. All kinds of things are handed out by the Spirit, and to all kinds of people! The variety is wonderful:
wise counsel
clear understanding
simple trust
healing the sick
miraculous acts
proclamation
distinguishing between spirits
tongues
interpretation of tongues.
All these gifts have a common origin, but are handed out one by one by the one Spirit of God. He decides who gets what, and when.

what power is that? you know people are so afraid of anything out of the normal that they just call anything else from the devil. i dont believe in a devil, human evil is more than enough. we dont need external devils.

Sure. I have the "power" to make those who are inclined to actually think, to do so.
