Why Don't We See Miracles Today?

In this episode, Dr. Betters answers the question, "Dr. Betters As I read through word of God I find it very pleasing and hopeful. Although I'm curious as to why we do not see more miracles by those who walk with God as the disciples and apostles performed. For the Bible says Truly Truly I say to you. Whoever believes in me will also do the work that I do, and greater works than these will he do because I am going to the Father. Also, he says if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, Move from here to there; and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you. There are many more miracles of raising the dead, casting demons out, healing blindness, walking on water, healing the crippled instantly by normal people with faith. It seems odd to me that more than ever in this day and age how beneficial it would be to bring more people to Jesus Christ."

We do see miracles every day. Those who don't have what God calls "hardess of heart."

James 5 says "Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord and the prayer offered in faith will restore the one who is sick. The Lord will raise him up." Is this a practice for the church today? If so, why are the sick not being healed today?

I hope that God still works miracles in a person's life I agree there is no miracle workers today. Except the people on tv that need you to sow your seed to them. But never give up asking God for help . Not all of us will get miracle healing but all of us will get the promise jesus gave us in the end .I've seen heart ache I've cried with people who suffered and died but ive also seen those who held their faith to the end. So to say God doesnt perform miracles today to me diminshes the love and power of God.

This really helped my understanding. I still am a bit confused like praying for . healing of a sick person when it would require a miracle if it's possible or happens now. I know all things in Jesus name are possible but i've not seen healing in practice. Maybe i need to truly open my eyes. anyway god bless top job mate.

something being possible is not the same as that it happens

I don’t see very many healings today . Now when I was younger and didn’t need healing it was easy to say “ oh , you just don’t have faith “ or say when you’re healthy I feel blessed everyday when I wake up , but the rubber meats the road when you wake up sick everyday then your arrogance goes out the window . Some arrogant younger people who get well after being sick say it’s healing when it’s more having a strong immune system and your body heals easier in every way . So if healing should be true if you’re 20 or 60 . I just don’t see 60 years olds getting healed from anything serious . I would like to settle this in my mind once and for all . We should all want to settle this , because everyone of us is going to be 60 one day . Even faith healers of long ago died sick and some died young.

Where were the miracle 🤔 during slavery and all the atrocities done during slavery? Can anyone answer...

@mike000395 3 жыл бұрын

The Christian nation fought a bloody war to end slavery in the west and later Europe. Now we are a diverse nation with equal rights. If anyone could see us now from 1800s they would see a miracle.

@BrenB125 6 ай бұрын

The slaves were not believing Christians when they were snatched up. The Jews were not believing Christians during the Holocaust. The devil gets an inroad in non believers. As more and more believers fight these spiritual battles the devil will flee.

am not sure God's intention was to perform miracles...maybe the Devil was given access to the people for a certain time period

My friend, if God controlled everything, would that not take free will away? We would just be ROBOTS whose every action, was determined by God and not us.. gOD DID NOT MAKE ROBOTS. no free will. If He took away free will, everybody would be Christians. Everything we do to each other, whether bad or good, is an act of our free will. Why do you give to a beggar or help somebody in need? Because you want to. Why do somebody do evil? Because he wants to. Before Adam and Eve sinned, humans had full dominium over creation, but they gave it all away because of their disobedience. The Bible says the whole creation is under the curse of sin. If you study this in the Bible, you will see that eventually ALL evil will be destroyed.

Dr Betters I have been watching videos of a person who escaped North Korea and the way she lived,no one should like that.The leader of North Korea doesn’t like Christianity and having a Bible could put you in a prison camp and I know God loves everyone,how can let these innocent people suffer under this evil Leader? I don’t know if you’ll have time to address this? I was just wondering.

Miracles are performed for the sake of the believers. Unbelievers wont believe them, and even if they did they still wouldn't do anything with it.

@smeatonlighthouse4384 3 жыл бұрын

Miracles were given mostly as a sign to the Jew in the early days of the apostles. We as Christians now, with the church established, are supposed by walk in the Spirit by faith, not by sight which miracles were. The Christian church, by that I mean Christendom is in ruins and heading for apostasy in these last of the last days of this dispensation. They are so full of their own self righteousness and ritual, that they do not 'need' Christ who is shut outside the door of the church (Rev. 3 v 20). Having said all that, when a sinner is saved by grace and passes from death unto Life, it is as good a miracle as any performed in the past.

RUBBISH! Have you ever read the bible? If so, why have you consciously ignored so much of it? Most of the Apostles' ministry went out to the Gentiles. Have you ever heard of Antioch? The Early Church Fathers recorded many miracles for centuries. Augustine, a cessationist, recorded over 70 miracles in only 2 years in his city of Hippo alone. Every century has recorded miracles. Surveys today record hundreds of millions worldwide that bear witness to miracles. 53% of American doctors report miracles. 70% of China's underground church report conversion as a result of a miracle. Dr. Craig Kreener, one of the foremost scholars in the world has a 2,000 page books recording doctor confirmed miracles around the world. You, Sir, sadly represent many today that are bible and history illiterate. REPENT! and maybe God will forgive you and open your blind eyes.

With due respect Dr. Better, please and for the sake of the Blood of the Lamb, stop this wrong teachings. I listened to what you said and you are calling God a liar. God change not. And Hebrews 13 v 8. Please sir remove this video for God still work miracles today, 2023. Please let God lead you in your teachings. This teaching is wrong. Very very scarily wrong. May God not hold you responsible for this wrong teaching on the day of judgement and I pray the same for myself. Please sir, this is theology here and this is wrong theology. Please let God lead you. My name is Joseph.
