@boeswilligkeit @moomin @yockeypuck I AM NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE TRADITIONS OF AMERICAN VERNACULAR CHRISTIAN SECTS SO I MAY BE INFERRING MY OWN MEANING HERE

THE EQUALITY HERE IM ASSUMING IS BETWEEN HUMAN BEINGS
IT IS NOT A DESCRIPTIVE THING WHERE ALL HUMAN BEINGS SHOULD BE TREATED EQUALLY BECAUSE THEY ARE ALL THE SAME THING
RATHER IT IS THE CASE THAT MAN BEING MADE IN THE IMAGE OF GOD, THE HONOR OF THE WORTHY TREATMENT OF ANOTHER HUMAN IS PASSED ON TO THE PROTOTYPE, GOD
IN OTHER WORDS TO BENEFIT ANOTHER IS THROUGH THEM AN ACT OF VENERATION, AND THAT IS THE COMMON STANDARD THAT RESULTS IN THE EQUAL TREATMENT, RATHER THAN THE EQUAL ABILITY OF PEOPLE -- IT ISN'T EQUAL, HUMAN NATURE IS EXPRESSED IN DIFFERENT WAYS IN PEOPLE

THE POWER IN THE NAME OF CHRIST IS IM ASSUMING THE ABILITY TO BANISH EVIL SPIRITS
IM SORRY BUT THE INVOCATION OF THE NAME OF CHRIST IS NOT A MAGIC SPELL WHICH COMPELS GOD TO VANQUISH EVIL SPIRITS ON YOUR WHIM OR COMPELS EVIL SPIRITS TO LEAVE BECAUSE YOU'RE JUST SO SCARY
THE FIGHTING IS DONE BY GOD OR OCCASIONALLY HIS LOYAL SPIRITS
BEING INDWELT BY THE HOLY SPIRIT IS WHAT ACTUALLY CAUSES HILLDEVILS TO FLEE, NOT YOUR OWN PERSON
