RIP: The Neutralizing of Preaching Personalities

I appreciate your post. The point I 'quoted' I find extremely interesting. Your perspective is one that many who haven't dealt with the inner workings of God's Kingdom wouldn't fully understand.

I wonder what the ratio would be if we applied these three categories today? What percentage is consumed with carnality vs. the percentage who love truth but aren't driven by that love to pursue God vs. those that press their way into the flow of God's Spirit?

Again, very interesting post.
