Oh, that is easy, Jesus took it all, and those who think they got some! Is being deceived by the Devil, him
Making them think, they got some! That is called deception.
American Standard Version
And Jesus came to them and spake unto them, saying, All authority [POWER] hath been given unto me in heaven and on earth.
He did not leave you NONE! He got it “ALL”!
King James Bible
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

Have you ever took up a course in “Methodology & Hermeneutics “ do you have a “Theological Library in your house?
Now I will answer your question. Relating to “The Acts of The Apostles”, yes maybe over 590 times beginning in 1977, when it was normal for a “Disciple of Christ” to memorise the whole bible by heart. The “AV”, ASB, RSV, and the most new at that time “NIV” Thompson Chain early copyright edition, and “The Oxford Edition preferred of The “Av” and that completion was completed by 1999 & 2007, and I have Read “ISBE” the whole book and the replaces words and the committees who translation the Books and Manuscripts they use.
What about the history of the Roman Empire and of The Emperors, all the church fathers all of the Roman Catholic popes, all The Caesars mamas and their daddy’s, even a few of the drunks who had part in the completion of The “1611” “AV”. By name. And the very “Manuscript” they use, and the reasons the “Church” became a replacement word for “Congregation” on The order of King James, and those conniving Roman Catholics leaders! Every body wanted to Rule!
I can go on all night I have not be lazy or reading dime store religious books. How to plant seed and a hundred growth. And growing the kingdom. And how to have a “Christian marriage and be happy. And treat her like a queen, and date out! Marital seminars, Dave Ramsey’ show spend and invest your money! How to get healing, the difference between Jesus and GOD.
Many Wasting their money and they got 3 Bibles in the House
One they stole out out the motel, And other they took from the church pew, and the other one I am not going say. They rather spend a hundred dollars on a meal, than buy a $150.00 excellent Study Bible to help feed their own soul. They will not buy a top of a line set of “Bible Encyclopedias” such as “ISBE, they rather take a one week or 2 week vacation than to nurture and enrich their very soul.
They rather go to pastor “Givemore” missionary church where Sister”Know it all” , is in charge,
You want me to on, 40 plus years under me “ the good and the bad”. Do you want to know about confessions, and I am not talking about “Aurelius Augustine
The pastors wives, the pastors, the choir directors, getting extra credit for extra “Curriculum in the church, the body in the super market parking lot. In The name of Jesus! I got a lot, you do not want to hear about the body of Christ let alone The institution!
How you feel now?

You was not even drinking milk, when I got on this “Battle field” even now you have not even approached “Boot Camp” let alone put your foot down on the training field.

There must be a church somewhere and certain members take it in turns to post nonsense here on TalkJesus.
Some people have too much time on their hands.
All of a sudden we are plagued with weird and bizarre threads ... like this gobbledegook.

Maybe because many cannot afford to pay their energy bills.
Great demon.stration of powerlessness.
The only power humans have is the power of choice, the rest is the consequences of our choices.

“Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.”
I have been trying to help you to see your truth, but arrogance seems to be in your way. Arrogant people become ignorant because they believe they know all the answers and cannot be told anything new. So they stop listening, and become ignorant, and in this case, of your own truth.
I pray that you will get to know your own truth, for when you do you will regain control of your inner critic.
But our computer needs power so that is how we can read this.
So your question is asking people that do not have power to their computer, why they are unable to read that question. Answering on their behalf; power outages due to storms or something else.
Perhaps you can be more specific with your inquiry. Maybe even give an example. Try.
Not so sure about that when sinners are slaves to sin, and when we are saved by Jesus Christ & set free from our sins, we still need Him for we can do nothing without Him, and so when I made the decision to serve the Lord Jesus Christ in seeking His glory and nothing else in His name, I am trusting Him to help me do this. He has done a very good job so far as I trust him to finish His work in me to His glory.
Proverbs 16:9 A man's heart deviseth his way: but the Lord directeth his steps.
Philippians 1:6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:.........11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
John 15:5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
Matthew 26:41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
Mark 10:26 And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved? 27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.
Galatians 3:1 O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? 2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? 3 Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?
2 Corinthians 3:4 And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward: 5 Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; 6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
2 Corinthians 4:5 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake. 6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.

Are not these 'choices'.

When you speak the Word in faith, you have ALL the power of the universe....In a tiny little mouth
