IT IS ALL ABOUT THE POWER OF GOD

The Power of the Resurrection
Matthew 22:29 - "Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God."
  
The Power (Authority) of God's Son
Luke 22:69 - "Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God."
 
The Powerful Message that saves the lost
Romans 1:16 - "For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek." 

The Power and Wisdom of the Cross
1 Corinthians 1:18, 24; 2:5 - "For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God....But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God....That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God."
 
The Power for the believer
2 Corinthians 6:7; 13:4 - "By the Word of truth, by the power of God, by the armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left....For though He was crucified through weakness, yet He liveth by the power of God.  For we also are weak in Him, but we shall live with Him by the power of God toward you."

The Power to withstand persecution
2 Timothy 1:8 - "Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the Gospel according to the power of God." 

The Power that keeps us saved
1 Peter 1:3-5 - "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to His abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time." 
 
His power overcame death; His power saves the lost; His power keeps us saved!
