The Super-Human Creation – Beating Seven Men

February 16th, 2014 · No Comments

Acts 19:16 (New Living Translation)

Then the man with the evil spirit leaped on them, overpowered them, and attacked them with such violence that they fled from the house, naked and battered.

This describes another instance of what I consider the super-human creation. One man beat seven in a fight. The accomplishment here is diminished by movies we see everyday. Sylvester Stallone does this in every movie and on and on. What’s the big deal.

Let’s step back into real life: one man does not beat seven men in a fight. Yet here it is, and in the Bible of all places.

God created us. I believe He created in us mental and physical abilities that we fail to realize the vast majority of the time. Praise God who created us.
