Like in the Biblical times, God spoke to people, why doesn't that happen today? And real spiritual people can get God to use his powers for him, like when that one guy in the Bible asked God to set the wet hay on fire, and it lit up. please help

Funny you ask this because we talked about it during our service today.
There ARE miracles that happen every day.
When Jesus fed the thousands, that was a miracle. It all happened by people giving and sharing what little they had. They did so without asking, "what do I get back".
We see daily where people give without asking for things in return knowing that God will provide for them as they have been provided for. Everytime we give like this, it is a miracle we witness just like in the Bible.
All we need to do is really look around with an open heart and mind.

Many miracles happen all the time. Every time someone hears Bible Doctrine communicated and he understands what God is teaching, that is a miracle. Without the Holy Spirit no one could understand or know anything about God.

The purpose of the miracles, signs, and wonders was to confirm the word and to show that God does not show partiality (Acts Chapter 10). Both of those reasons have been fulfilled forever; therefore, miracles are no longer needed for those purposes.
2 Corinthians 12:12 Truly the signs of an apostle were accomplished among you with all perseverance, in signs and wonders and mighty deeds.

They do! My life is proof of it! Miracles do happen but today when something happens that can't be explained we have to get all scientific about it or say it's coincidence. God doesn't speak or appear physically anymore but has sent the Holy Spirit to act in His place. Just look outside and at our own bodies and you will see unmistakable acts of miracles!

Dear friend there alot of things to say about it,but first thing there alot of misconception in your mind about miracles too. first God Neva talked to every person directly, God passes his message through his messengers.. and i wont take a long but in short that we don't really believe in God in the right direction nowadays... Do we? ask yourself. Believe me bro if we start believing in God, you will see the miracles with your own eyes. this is a self experience.

Miracles happen all the time. We just have to open our hearts and minds to the love of the one true God.
I know that faith in God removes any need for the acts you seem to want to see. However, if you don't have faith, you wouldn't believe these things are of God even if they happened right in front of you.

They do except people pass them off as coincidence. Anything one can not explain is a coincidence. They even have shows on them because there are so many unexplained events that happen that the only answer would be for a heavenly intervention

Miracles happen even today.Praises be to God.
But we keep our eyes and mind closed ,and are under the deception of Devil.He loves to sow seeds of doubts in our minds.
Devil hates to give due glory to God.

First of all I don't think we deserve it now a days. Secondly, I think it is because back then He was setting up the big picture talking to prophets getting them ready for their part in it. Preparing the way for Jesus.That was the beginning of Christianity.i sure would have liked to see the Red sea part though!

Because we know better than to accept anything we can't explain to be a miracle. The earth is no longer the centre of the universe. We're humbler, now. We know there's a lot we don't know.
