Why Don't Miracles Happen Today Like They Did in the Bible?

[carnivoreRon]

Miracles do happen today. When I was a teenager, God healed me of an illness. The healing was instantaneous. It was an act of love on the part of the Creator who loves me.

What I like to see right now is the sick being healed, dead being raised, evil exposed and destroyed as well as the wicked punished. Seriously, we need this.

[emmanuelsoto]

Another reason is this:
Luke 11
29 And when the people were gathered thick together, he began to say, This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet.
30 For as Jonas was a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to this generation.

Evil Generation only wants signs and even if they got the signs they would still be rebellious towards God's word like the pharisees that saw all the miracles and still rejected Jesus Christ.

I almost died cuz I thought God was going to heal me, unfortunately I was transported by Ambulance cause I had gone into a coma, gone septic from Meningitis. Four different doctors had to brainstorm and pump me full of 4 different antibiotics that ultimately within weeks helped me, but without permanent side effects. We give God credit but fail to give thanks to the Doctors who with their knowledge help people.

Reason is you can write anything in a book. But we got video now days. If we had smart phones back then, guaranteed no talking snakes would be uploaded.

Many devout Christians suffer loss of a child, or disabilities, and such. Sometimes the miracle is keeping one's faith, and persevering with Jesus' help and grace.

As a muslim, i like to think of it like this.

God (Allah) had granted humanity from the time of Adam to the final messegner, all the signs and evidence they needed. After the final prophet, the "teaching phase" was already done. Thus you have no more prophet's which means no more miracles on huge scales. Essentially, for want of a better way to put this, we are now left on our own accord to believe.


Miracles are directly correlated with prophets as they are the closest to God. Thus, no more prophets = no more miracles

Miracles happen ToDay Just the Same! They just happen in different ways. Jesus works miracles in my life EveryDay. Maybe not impressive to others..but significant to me. I can look at a tree and see a miracle..when you think deeply about it..and Wonder..How Did God DO that..Make a Tree?! That is a miracle to me..as well as..EVERTHING else!

Well said!
One more, Dr Brown:
Yes, there are hundreds of miracles in the Bible, but remember, the Bible covers thousands of years of history. So it's not like from Genesis 1 all the way through the time of the apostles was constantly outstanding miracles every day.

Can you please show the documentation? I’ll wait lol…

[robertanoble]

Miracles still happen every day. If no miracle is happening in your life, you need to hear the Word of God, for hearing is where faith comes.

Show me 1 person who was raised from the nonsense is this

I have seen a lot of miracles and also I was supernaturally healed from a chronic back pain and alcoholism

Reading the books of the New Testament, we probably asked ourselves more than once: *"Why 2000 years we do not see those miracles that accompanied the Сhurch of Christ in the I century, as described in the New Testament?"* Why do the so-called preachers of Christ have to prove that Jesus really existed and atheists boldly deny the historicity or divine origin of Christ? Maybe because the Сhurch of Christ has not existed for 2000 years?

The Сhurch does not exist in the form in which it is presented in the books of the New Testament, but there are Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant and other christian sects claiming to be the place of the Church, but they not have the only thing that distinguishes the divine from the human and is characteristic of just the Сhurch of Christ -the reinforcement of the word with signs, that is, miracles (Mark 16:15-20).

Therefore, some researchers doubt the historicity of Christ, and some of them are not opposed to declaring him a an ordinary philosopher, teacher. But even if Jesus were an ordinary philosopher, his disciples would be ordinary followers of Jesus. And they would not dare to write about the miracles that not only Jesus, but also his disciples, could perform.

If there were the Church in our time as described by the authors of the New Testament books, where miracles are performed, the sick are healed, where prophesied, and the dead are raised, no one would doubt the historicity of Christ. Then there would be the same controversy throughout the world as in the first century - Jesus the Son of God or the false prophet who seduces the world by miracles. As a result, we can say that the emergence and development of christian sects and atheism was the result of the fact that over the 2000 years the Сhurch of Christ did not exist.

Find *"The Mystery about the Church of Christ"* video on YouTube. The video reveals the prophecy of the disappearance and reappearance of the Church of Christ before the End of the World. Watching this video will give hope to all who sincerely seek God and will interest those who are not too lazy to think freely. Click on my name to watch the video (The video is in Russian, but English subtitles are included).

What about miraculous gifts? Who has these gifts today? Would it be right to ask for healing from a such a person? Really want to know

[gustavmahler]

Christians doubt there are miracles today and look to science

[AbhishekTiwari]

Miracles had never happened before and will never happen in the future.

[GJGteam]

Amen..Thanks dr. Brown. God bless you in Jesus name. 💗

[christopherestrada]

the miraculous healings of Jesus vs scientific-backed medicine-based healing today is not the same. it is ignorant and disingenuous to say they are the same and therefore say that the Jesus miracles were true and possible.
