This “point of contact” delusion comes from a misunderstanding of Christ’s statement, “If two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven” (Matthew:18:19Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
See All...). The phrase “as touching anything” is taken to mean that the two parties must literally touch some common object in order to activate the power of God.
