1 Corinthians 2:4 "My message and preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirits power" and Colosians 1:11 "Being strengthened with all power according to His glorious so that you may have great endurance and patience" and also 1 Thessalonians 1:5 "Because our gospel did not come to you with just words but with the Power of the Holy Spirit and with deep conviction." Gods might, glory, and power are unknowable and unsearchable and with words the gospel was preached but with power it is wrought deep in our heart by the Holy Spirit good Question god bless

The Kingdom...what we pray for at Matthew 6; 9,10...is a proper government of people living in peace on the earth, and ruled by Jesus in the heavens.
Because the ones being ruled are ' righteous', there will be no need of armies, police, security, padlocks, and maybe even money. Really true and proper communism, not the b...d..system we have witnessed for thirty years.
there will be plenty of food.
(PSALM 72:16) There will come to be plenty of grain on the earth; On the top of the mountains there will be an overflow. His fruit will be as in Leb′a·non, And those who are from the city will blossom like the vegetation of the earth.
We will grow younger...
(JOB 33:25) Let his flesh become fresher than in youth; Let him return to the days of his youthful vigor.’
The kingdom applies to the earth.

The Power is in the Words.
"The cult will have their own language and terms. These prevent people outside the group being able to engage in "dangerous" conversations with members and it gives the members a sense of belonging. It also allows a phenomenon known as thought stopping where a simple word can stop any thoughts in the member's mind which are against the cult."

Those with words only and without the attestation of God working with them in demonstration of power, signs and miracles are the enemies of the Gospel , thus say Paul, the apostle and I tend to believes that also. Thank you for asking!

Well, that was certainly true in medieval times when the Church had the power. What did that get us again?
