Show us some of these signs, wonders and miracles in the Pauline epistles

Why should I have to? Isn't Acts in your Bible, or have you turned "the Bible alone" into "the Pauline epistles alone"?

Paul was a physical wreck

Since gifts like healing are performed by the Holy Spirit, I fail to see what Paul's physical condition has to do with anything.

He couldn't heal himself, let alone anyone else

Except that the Bible records that God even healed people through Paul's handkerchief. Too bad you don't believe the Scriptures.

This post is not real current...

The point is, the church structure went thru a transition from the time the churh was mentioned in Matthew to what the church became during Paul's ministry...

The miracles the apostles performed were for a 'sign' to the 'Jews'...The Gentiles don't require a sign...Therefore, the signs were done away with...

Except that the Bible records that God even healed people through Paul's handkerchief.

He sure did...For a sign to the Jews...Are you a religious Jew???

Too bad you don't believe the Scriptures.

Oh, I don't doubt I believe the scriptures even more than you...Difference is, I 'divide' the scripture where it needs dividing (2Tim 2:15)...
