Mark 11:23 KJV Quoting: buzz 3767410 When did Christians lose these radical landscaping powers? They never had them to start with. Ive yet to see a miracle or healing let alone mountains flying around. But talking about it sells books..and selling books makes money. Its all about the money. |

Not only can they, they have, and they have been ordered to do so by Muslims standing by to slaughter them if the mountain did not move. It rose up enough for daylight to be seen under the mountain and prevented the slaughter, in fact the Fatimid muslim leader who had commanded it converted on the spot to Christianity. He spent the rest of his life in a church cellar, hiding from his fellow muslims who wanted to execute him for converting. This happened in the 10th century in Cairo. Muslims, in their ongoing persecution of the Coptic Christians who were in Egypt for centuries before islamic imperialism arrived, faced a test devised to disprove Christianity, the verse that says if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you can move mountains. The mountain selected was one of the Moquattam hills in and near Cairo. The Copts asked for three days of fasting to prepare, and selected a poor, religious shoemaker to ask the mountain to move. He did so with thousands of muslims armed with swords to begin the genocide of the Coptics if he failed. It moved. The shoemaker is remembered as St. Simon the Tanner. Certainly the Coptic Christian population of Cairo is no safer on December 9, 2012, for they are still being hunted and killed. But they survived that day.

Then you will have the power also. I haven't moved a physical mountains but I have casted out devils, and healed people in His name. Mark 16:17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. I was a christian for MANY years and had no power and thought I was doing right. Now that I follow the Holy Bible as it is written. YHWH hears me. |

Just think of all the people that would be saved through this miracle. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 3767410 it's a proverbial mountain. in other words, if you have a huge challenge in your life, with faith you can tell it to move. it is a play on words about how faith can move anything. |

Coptics were told the Good News by the apostle Mark, within YEARS to DECADES of the ressurection. Not centuries. Some people see them as close to hebraic, they observe Passover,require circumcision, keep many fasts Jews would also keep, and in many ways are quite different from any Christians you have ever heard of.
