Hi Ian. It's not about lack of signs, its about lack of faith.
BELIEVE that I am in the Father and the Father in me. Or IF NOT, believe me for the works sake.
The miraculous signs were given NOT for those who believe, but for those who do NOT believe.
1Co 1:22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
1Co 1:23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
1Co 1:24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
I'm not a big fan of miracles. To be honest, I wish there were fewer miracles in Scripture. Sorry, just telling the truth. The only miracle I need for my real life is resurrection, otherwise everything is pointless. I 'believe' in the miracles, but the only good they do me is as symbols of SPIRITUAL things in my life. They've also done me good in helping me to come out of babylon, as MANY will come in His name doing signs and wonders and will decieve the world.
I prayed for Ray to be healed completely. I believe, however, that this corruption MUST put on incorruption, and this mortal MUST put on immortality.
WHATEVER your position, own it. What God requires is honesty.
Here's my miracle. It works for me. For twenty years I had left the church and left all concious effort to fellowship with God. Indeed, as far away as I could be was where I wanted to be. He never left me, however, even when I wanted Him to. I had a heart attack. Very nearly died, and was weak for months afterward. Still didn't want to follow God. But one night I thought to pray. I hadn't prayed in ten years, and as far as I knew, I wouldn't pray again for another ten.
So I prayed and asked God for a new heart. Pretty dang bold for a guy who hadn't prayed in a decade, but I figured I might as well go for broke. Oh the headlines that would inspire. "GOD Gives Tennessee Man New Heart".
It was a few more years from that, and about four and one half years ago from now, I stumbled onto B-T and God answered my prayer. I didn't even know then that he had, and it wasn't until I 'looked back' that I could see it.
Joh 20:28,29 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
That's what I meant in that post.
