Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is God still doing miracles today? Because of the many claims of charismaticism on this issue, a rather detailed biblical study of the matter is warranted. We defend the following conclusions: - Modern "miracle workers" cannot demonstrate the attributes of biblical ones, and are lying when they claim similar gifts. - There are no God-sent miracle workers in Scripture that were not also sources of new, direct, divine revelation to be believed and obeyed as the word of God. - The faith to perform or receive a miracle is just as supernatural and God-given as the miracle itself, and modern "faith healers" are wrong to blame disappointed followers for their lack of such faith. - The Church has universally testified that the gifts of miracle working ceased in the early Church with the completion of the NT. - The fraud in the modern miracle movement has been immense. -Other legitimate explanations for modern "miracles" are intriguing and even alarming.
