    I would disagree that what produces these rantings is "that God gives different ministers of his different ways to deliver a message." I doubt that when Peter or Paul preacehd they were running around a stage screaming. The power of the truth of the gospel does not need theatrics.

    OK, how about deceived?

    The historical significance is that Obama is very likely being nominated because he is black, not in spite of it. Even many black commentators are willing to admit that his race contributed to him winning. Can you imagine a white candidate his age, with his lack of experience and his liberal voting record beating the Clintons. I can't and neither can many others.

    If Obama loses the general election and people say that America is still not ready for a black president they will be terrribly wrong. The historical significance will be that many Americans are still playing the race card in a vain attemt to get people to hand things over to people because of skin color.

    I get what you are saying but you cant fake sweat, I mean its not like he has a water bottle and spraying himself before for the service.. everyone has different styles of preaching.. Some passive and I have heard some calm.. Color has nothing to do with it... We are one body for Christ.. Look at Paul White.. she is white and has that hype up style of preaching and at the same time we can look at Kenneth Copeland who also has the hype up style of preachings... color has nothing to do with the style of preaching.. Thats just my humble opinion though...

    1 Corinthians 2
    Christ Crucified
    1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, did not come with excellence of speech or of wisdom declaring to you the testimony[a] of God. 2 For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. 3 I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling. 4 And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, 5 that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

    Hint -- you have just described the democrat platform for the past 20+ years.
