Bible Note: Both of your examples are from a period before the cross nad the resurrection. So they are invalid. God had His reasons now made clear if we study to show ourselves approved. Agreement does mean anything if that agreement isn't between the asking prayer's and God Himself. By agreement meaning their living their lives BY the faith of Jesus Christ which is the only Faith that can produce such agreement because it is the very MIND of GOd. Without that Faith it is impossible to please God. Consequently, a whole army couldn't move God by agreeing to together if God doesn't want to be/can't be moved. All to often that's the case. Who knows the sin-s that gather together in agreement for God's miraclous works. If He were to grant the wishes of a bunch of agreeing, secret adulterers, what be the effect on them? Nope..sorry. Agreeing with yourselves and .10 won't buy a cup of coffee in that scheme of things. |
