Mark 16:17-18 and Today's Church
Mark 16:16-18
16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. 17 And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; 18 they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover."
NKJV
James 5:14-16
14 Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
NKJV
THIS IS THE WORD OF GOD WHICH NEVER CHANGES. Why are the saints not being healed in the church?
They are in a very small number of churches that know and believe the Word of God. But what about the rest of them?

Yes, I have often wondered why I have never seen a physical miracle in my lifetime. From what I understand, God generously shows us miracles so that we will know that he is the lord, the all powerful, loving, heavenly father. Where can I go to witness the works of God so that I can know that he saves lives, shows compassion, and is present with his children as he promised?
If the saints can perform miracles, then where is this happening?
Mark 16:18 ... They will place their hands on the sick and cure them.
I am through watching empty people playing around at praying and laying on of hands. I want to witness the unlimited power of God so that I may believe and be healed.
Why does it seem like God is hiding or just isn't there?

| reply to why are there not miracles today

| Worker, there are many miracles being performed today, but you will not see the genuine miracles in the "churches of men" as real miracles are only available where the Spirit of God is. Come visit me and I will take you to places where real genuine medically confirmed miracles happen on a daily basis. Only where those who are truly called of God, who are interested in serving and blessing God's people are serving will you see them. God does not withhold His blessing from those who truly serve Him, only those who serve self , or a church or something other than what is God's will.
