God honored, required folks to walk by faith from at least as far back as Abraham.
Certainly those who have great faith--a gift--though--without dramatic miracles . . . evidently have the greater reward.
But as a collection of human critters, the race NEEDS miracles now as much as any time in history. All the more so with atheism; secular humanism etc. convincing so many millions that God does not exist.
Also, God is infinitely an UNidiot. He is not about to allow satan and his goons all the counterfeit miracle working power.
I suppose it depends on the definition of need. I contend that human nature has not changed and that therefore the need for a great number of humans to believe God's Almightiness by demonstration of His power . . . has not changed. All the more so when satan is all cocked and ready to support the global government with counterfeit miracles.
We don't need any miracles. The children of Israel wandered for 40 years in the wilderness being fed by manna from heaven. Their clothes never wore out and God provided for them. They experienced miracles every day just picking up the manna and having enough to eat. It didn't do them any good.
Why specifically do we need miracles? What has God not given us that we feel we need a miracle? I'm not trying to be mean but just think about this for a moment. What would we like God to do for us at this very moment? Cure a sick child of cancer? Part the Red Sea? Help me to win the Power Ball? (That would be a miracle!)
These are all external things that will NEVER change the heart or soul. They will not open up the ears to hear or the eyes to see. Only the miracle of the Holy Spirit can do that and, unfortunately, we no longer see this as a significant miracle-or at least no longer acknowledge this is God's doing and not our own choice. Personally, if the choice comes down to parting the Red Sea or opening up the ears of ONE sinner so they'll come to Christ, I'd would choose the latter miracle.
The miracles are already all around us - this DAY is a miracle of Grace. What is required are eyes to see them with. Jesus Christ opens the eyes of the blind, daily. Amen, and thank You, Jesus!
