I said nothing of parts. The whole thing is contrary to Jesus.

I said nothing of tests either. I'm talking about miracles performed out of genuine need, which Jesus said those with faith in him would be able to perform.

Jesus also said that a wicked and idolatrous generation would be given no sign [IE miracle] except for his death and ressurection.

Matthew 12:39

So basically, you're not going to see what you want to see and that is intentional. In the gospels, Jesus performed plenty of miracles, but he only did so to crowds of believers, never to skeptics or accusers. He did this to reveal his divine nature to people who already believed in God, not to convince evildoers.

And yet somehow Rasputin was still performing the miracles of Mark 16, which brings us back to the point of this thread. The question is not one of belief or skepticism, since we have documentation of what happened (even from his killers). The question is why these signs are present in him, but not others who profess to believe in Jesus Christ.

Paul has already clarified that each individual is given certain gifts to fulfill certain purposes. Althroughout the Bible we see people performing miracles, but these miracles pertaining directly to what God wills on earth. Moses didn't do whatever he wanted, he was simply a conduit to do God's will on earth. Does that make sense?

Moses was under the old covenant, which is completely different. Jesus made it clear what his believers would be able to do under the new covenant.

Nice paradox you have there
