There have also been many miracles worked through non-clergy. Are you suggesting, trebb, that there have been no miraculous works since the time of the Apostles, or have I misunderstood?
I’m not saying that no miracles have occurred since then, only that they are not the common place deal where a handful of folks consistently “facilitate” them as back then. Jesus told the apostles to go out and do these things, yet He also made sure that they knew it was God the Father that actually made them happen, not them and not even Him. Show me someone who purports to do miracles today and I’ll show you one of Satan’s helpers.
