It is by the power of God, through the person of the Holy Spirit. In human magic, people are tricked or led to believe something magical has occurred, using misdirection, hidden mechanizations, or other means to fool the audience. No real magic has happened. In the gospel message of Jesus, "God's truth" is beyond our human understanding and not a gimmick for entertainment. Jesus will lead if...
