I think you won't have to look to far to hear stories of real, documented miracles. I personally know several people who have been healed.
Since you specifically mentioned it - in one case (a good friend) I have seen the before and after X-rays. His doctors and surgeons -the best in their field- said they had no explanation, that there was no way he could have spontaneously healed, and even they conceded it must be a miracle.
I believe cessationism is a denial of the awesome power of God and of great delight to Satan.
For those who have chosen to believe that God does not perform miracles today, no "proof" will be sufficient.
All in all, I'd suggest to anyone that he/she go straight to God in prayer and ask Him.
Proof is easy to find, we can go drag someone out of a hpospital emergency room right now.
And that is my point, if these people had the genuine Holy Spirit gift of healing, they would not be holding meetings, they would be in Emergency rooms and hospices.
Good point! Isn't that so simple =-)?
I did just that when I too wondered why those folks of faith didn't waltz into nursing homes and hospitals. To state such would cause a slight depression in the economy might be an understatement.
Then, would the people of the world rush to the so-called faith healers to be healed? More like, "We'll watch your God heal up those lion bites all over your bodies."
