Believe that religious relic have super power like in "The Raiders Of The Lost Arc"?

Can you scripture scholars please chime in?

Thanks for your time have a great day!

Hi Brother Garion, and I don't know if the following information is what you're seeking, but I'll offer it.
James 4:2,3 . . Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss….
God made everything, but would we pray to Satan?

Rom 13:1 There is no power but of God, and illustrtated through those He put over us as authority.

Concerning the ARK of God, Israel were not to touch it, and in:
2Sa 6:6 And when they came to Nachon's threshingfloor, Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen shook it.
2Sa 6:7 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God.

The ARK itself didn’t exert power as far as I know.

Oh thanks
 
There is a theory that the Ark was (is) a large shock capacitor or battery, and that anyone who was grounded to earth and touched it would be on the receiving end of a lethal electrical discharge.
 
Yes I've heard this but actually with my question I was asking about all religious relic,thank you though I kinda believe your answer because I look for rational reasoning in before the mystical unexplainable.

Another relic would be the spear that stabbed Jesus which is said to have unexplainable power, I'm sure that there is more.

My question is really addressing whether or not you guys believe that these relics have real power.

I was recently presented with a example of telepathy being real.

Now before my recent experience I would have laughed and called believers in telepathy nutcases and con artists....so I was considering the possibility of religious relic with powers being real.

Thanks everyone for your input.
 
Despite the fact that there is often a scientific explanation to unusual phenomena, I do personally believe that physical objects can possess some kind of spiritual signature. So yes to your question, even though I'm a scientist.

You a scientist? that's cool man, I bet the end being imminent is what really opened your eyes huh?

I did me,and many others also and I think that is great.
 
I would think if any religious relic had any supernatural powers that power would come from God just like the rod of Moses turning into a serpent as God gave it its supernatural power to do so when Moses cast it down. We also read that the magicians of Egypt cast down their rods and they turned to serpents, but the serpent God gave power to swallowed up the other serpents so this also shows Satan has supernatural powers, but Gods power supersedes any that Satan has, Exodus 7:8-13.
