Are Miracles Selective? by Nobody: 10:50pm On Dec 18, 2008
We hear of people being cured of cancer, diabetes, HIV etc

However, why don't albinos become black or amputated legs grow back, afterall these are medical conditions too.

People need to see glaring miracles, that will help win a lot of people to christainity.

I am a Christain, but I have moxed feelings about claims of healings.

Question is, is it real and is it selective? Please somebody explain.

I agree with you, to an extent.

Little wonder some ministries keep their distance from the independent media.

Some people even go as far as thinking that it is faithless to seek medical verification of a so-called miracle, when they rely on the very same medicine to diagnose ailments. angry tongue

Are miracles real? Yes. Are they selected? My instinctive answer would be yes, sometimes, but since I have no proof other than hear-say I'd wait till we get to heaven when all will be revealed, if it takes that long.

Or like SirJohn, you could attempt to do some research for yourself.

Good evening N1,
I understand the point you are trying to pass across in this forum, but haven't you considered the possibility that miracles of such nature (Amputee grown, albino healed) have happened and are still happening?

Really? I would pay any amount for video evidence. Surely with modern technology it would have been captured on tape. Awaiting your YouTube links sire or any other video recording.

Common! What those that even mean? Lengthening leg. The man wasn't even sure which of his legs was shorter.

I'm talking very obvious miracles sir. Like d cripples we see on the streets of Nigerian without full legs or hands. I hear of Aids and cancer being cured, illnesses that can't be seen. We want obvious in ur face miracles like Jesus did.

I knew there would skeptics who would try to dismiss this miracle. Hagin is not the first to be used along that line neither is it his first time. The truth is, even if a cripple without arms and limbs pops out arms and limbs, there would still be skeptics who would raise the bar just like you are doing.

In the 40's when miracles of healed cough and cold were common, they were dismissed as untrue, while skepics like you raised the bar to that of cancer, paralysed, raising of the dead e.t.c.

The problem is not with pastors, its with the skeptics. I believe that we are at the verge of experiencing a strong outpouring of the holyspirit that would beat the skeptics imagination, popping of arms and legs would become common, missing body parts would miraculously grow. It would be strong that skeptics won't be able to dismiss the evidence of its power

We can't wait. Until then, we remain sceptical.
