I beleive that at a point in time long ago god did have more power on earth. I think there was a time when everyone had his love inside them and followed the way of life described in the bible.

Currently satan's influence on human beleifs and the world around us has cursed the world, causing us to not have the capasity for belief that we once had. The fact is, as the world comes to understand god better and people start to love as the bible teaches, the veil of misunderstanding will begin to lift. As more and more people learn how to live in the present, not concerning themselves with the past, and not trying to predict the future, god will gain more influence. The more man tries to control their life the harder it is for god to have any effect on them. When all your will is shifted to doing and saying the right "loving" thing it will have an effect on the people around you. That is a fact. We must fight hard to suppress hate and negativity, these things block god's love.
