"Not by might, not by power..."

It is worth noting that Martin Luther King Jr. preached his last sermon in a Church of God in Christ facility. (The Church of God in Christ is the largest Pentecostal denomination in the U.S.) In some photos you can see a banner with a Bible verse hanging over Dr. King's head -- a verse which could be considered the theme of the Pentecostal movement since its inception: "Not by might, not my power, but by my Spirit saith the Lord" (Zechariah 4:6). In the early days of the movement Pentecostals took this verse to mean that moving in the power of the Spirit precluded violence -- a message that meshes powerfully with Dr. King's life and legacy.

In honor of MLK Day.

    Hey just wanted to give you a brief heads up and let you know a few of
    the pictures aren't loading properly. I'm not sure why
    but I think its a linking issue. I've tried it in two different web browsers and both show the same results.

    I do consider all the ideas you've introduced in your post. They're very convincing and
    will definitely work. Still, the posts are too short for newbies.
    May just you please prolong them a little from next time?
    Thank you for the post.

    The other day, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iphone and tested to
    see if it can survive a thirty foot drop, just so she
    can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now broken and she has 83 views.
    I know this is completely off topic but I had to share it
    with someone!

    I'm impressed, I must say. Seldom do I come across a blog that's both educative and
    interesting, and without a doubt, you have hit the nail
    on the head. The issue is something too few people are speaking intelligently about.
    Now i'm very happy I came across this during my hunt for something regarding this.

    Hello, I do believe your site could be having browser compatibility
    problems. When I take a look at your site in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it's got some overlapping issues. I simply wanted to provide you with a quick heads up! Besides that, great blog!
