I do understand your point about the strongman. The strongman of death has been given great strength from all of the abortion and Terry's case is just a side symptom.
No...there is no "Yes & No".
Paul said faith without works is dead.
Not works without faith is dead.
Faith is first. It is through faith that all of creation was formed. It is through faith that Jesus gave Himself. It is through faith that the Holy Spirit descended into hell and brought Him out...and if this Woman is to be delivered, faith [In God's Word: Logos & Rhema] will come first. Not 150 busy-body freepers typing away at their PCs because they're pissed off.
That's nothing more than a form of masterbation.
