Glenn Clark compares the showier gifts of the Spirit to a wasteful steamboat whistle. It is “an immense whistle and a very small engine,” one that spends all its steam announcing itself and leaves nothing to move the boat. Keep prophecy, healing and tongues secondary to the fruits, he tells the New Mexico CFO in 1954.
Genevieve Parkhurst describes how a lump in her breast vanished as she prayed before a picture of Christ in Gethsemane. She also tells how a voice later stopped a house-cleaning frenzy, saying, “I didn’t heal you to wash the kitchen woodwork.” She gave both accounts at the 1953 New Mexico CFO.
