Only God performs miracles.

Sure about that?

Acts 4:16

"Saying: What shall we do to these men? for indeed a known miracle hath been done by them, to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem: it is manifest, and we cannot deny it."

I am not being contentious but I have a hard time crediting a mortal man with miracles. It is by the power of the Holy Spirit that miracles are performed. The apostles noted they did nothing on their own. Even Jesus exclaimed such. IMO, credit should not be given to mortal man simply because he/she did what is commanded of them; pray. To pray is a duty of a Christian. God should receive the credit. Can you understand where I am coming from?
