Re: Why doesn't God do miracles today?
God does do miracles today through those that are faithful and believe on Him !
What about all the people who don't belive in god, yet have done great things for this world?
Besides, why does god waste his time working "thrugh" anyone, cant he snap hos fingers and just make whatever he wants happen?
this goes to you too dondon.
God, allah, whatever, is all powerfull. So why is he wasting his time with these mere mortals?
Case in point,
If there was an olympic bodybuilder, and he was in a room full of parapelgic midgets. And he wanted to move a 700Lbs block from one end to the other (an easy task easy for his muscular self), whats the better chice? Wait for the midgets or just do it himself?
hehehehe

Re: Why doesn't God do miracles today?
The Lord will work thru anyone who is sincere, Yaro, yourself included. He works on behalf of the faith of those involved.
Maybe God is wanting to work thru you but you have never believed it! ...
Isn't this a bit iresponsible?
I mean, god ain't gonna do anything to make me belive in him cuz I have to come to that thrugh my free will. Which means there is no guarantee I will be saved to be able to be used for "some good". Mehnwhile two thirds of the world live in abject poverty and a stagering number of chilldrend die every year from mal nutriton and preventable desises.
Yet god waits for people to start beliving in him so he can work thrugh them to fix this stuff? Thats ludacriss, and negligent.
Especialy when the lord could simply snap his fingers and end all suffering on this earth.
I guess my question is, whats the point? Why the middle man?
