Random Revival Rhetoric

[KeptByTheWord]

I'm thinking of the Day of Pentecost, when they were all "in one accord and in one place", and had been praying together for many, many days, as the greatest example of how revival can take place.

Acts 1:14 "These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren"
Acts 2:1 "And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place."

So my definition of revival, according to the above passages: Revival will happen when all are in one accord in one place.

So yes.... PO... unity is the best "context" here! (imo)

I agree.

Pressing on: Well, I don't know. The people in the Upper Room "planned" to meet and stay there. It was effort on their part. They had to walk to the location, together, in unity. Just sayin'....

Yes, they "planned" but were instructed by the Lord to wait
to receive power.
That's how I understand it anyways….

There's a lot of "political correctness" in many churches today which prevents revivals.
To much political correctness being preached from the pulpits.

Just my two cents….

I don't disagree with that. But, still, I take the original point as unity. Because I know that to be true even in a marriage. Unity works very well.

Well, yes, I agree.
There cannot be revival without Christians being in unity.

(In One Accord…..not all in the Honda, lol)
