One of the great truths that I have learned of the Holy Spirit is that He DOES work through the scriptures. Why do we want to see any other kind of miracle? We should be speaking the word boldly and trust God that His word will not return void. If we see a person accept Christ, isn't that a glorious rebirthing process by which all the angels in heaven rejoice? It is all done through the Holy Spirit by God's word, right before our eyes. We don't need miracles, healings, or anything else. All we need is the word of God to see His miracles.

I will caveat all of this in that God sometimes intervenes in other ways, but it is always to draw us to His scriptures where He can instill us with His faith through His Spirit.

Glad for your caveat . . . however . . . the above

seems to indicate that you think that the nature of, the qualities of, the essences of man have dramatically, significantly, wholesale changed since 2000 years ago.

I find that an enormously flawed, erroneous, silly idea.

The greatest miracle in the world is that God would rescue a wretched sinner like me who has given God no reason whatsoever to do anything concerning me except to judge me guilty of all His Law and condemn me to the everlasting darkness of hell, and did so by making the greatest sacrifice of His Son, who suffered the humiliation and punishment I justly deserve.
