Bible Note: Jesus' "little, wormy spirit" -- Kenneth Copeland 'The situation seemed hopeless, as Jesus' "emaciated, poured out, little, wormy spirit is down in the bottom of that thing; and the devil thinks he's got Him destroyed."73 'However, Copeland explains that "Satan fell into the trap. He took Him [Jesus] into hell illegally. He carried Him in there [when] He did not sin."74 'God found the opening He needed: "That Word of the living God went down into that pit of destruction and charged the spirit of Jesus with resurrection power! Suddenly His twisted, death-wracked spirit began to fill out and come back to life....Jesus was born again - the firstborn from the dead the Word calls Him - and He whipped the devil in his own backyard."75' ____________________ 73 Kenneth Copeland, Believer's Voice of Victory (television program), TBN, 21 April 1991. 74 Copeland, What Happened from the Cross to the Throne, side 2. 75 Copeland, "The Price of It All," 4-6. --Radioman2 |
