Thanks John for your comment that added so much info about the way that Jesus exerted leadership. Holy Spirit Power and Resurrection Power – I didn’t think of either. I hope others read your comments too. Thanks much.

Comment on Does God Reward and Punish Today? by John Valade

Jesus himself seems to have made use mostly of the latter two types of power in his ministry on earth. Just before his death, his “referent power” turned against him by making him a threat to the establishment. Since he used no “coercive power” and was seen to have no “legitimate power” by those who had authority.

There are two types of power that naturally did not occur to French and Raven. The first is Holy Spirit power, through which Jesus and his disciples performed signs and wonders. The second is “resurrection power,” which ultimately establishes Jesus’ legitimacy and authority – for those with eyes to see and ears to hear.

Thanks, Merv, for another excellent post!

This is a very good post. Clear, incisive, and your link to the Encyclopaedia Britannica article added value, too. Thanks

[...] In the meantime? Christians need to carry on preaching the gospel in all the world to reach as many people as possible that God may be calling to repentance and faith - and also to give thanks and offer praise – Until He Comes Again. [...]

Thanks, Cindy, for the visit and the insightful comment. The love of God is the important thing isn’t it.
