Has God said He would not sprinkle people with gold flakes? Hasn't He said He would perform signs and wonders?

Timmy, I know you are funning around... and its funny. I laugh with you my friend...


but for other eyes... there is a point to be made here...

Signs and wonders.... those signs and wonders are in the bible. Jesus did them they are a guide post.

Pray for a dead person. Tell me they came back to life, I will be happy to tell you it can happen...

start with gold teeth and flakes in the air, and Ive got to go back to the book.

that aint in there.

There was a point to my funning, too. Apparently, you don't believe in signs today, so it doesn't apply to you.

Oh, like tongues? Any others?

But still, if there are signs today, what scripture tells you 1) what signs will not occur? and 2) how can you distinguish a true sign from a false one, even if it does appear in the approved list of signs?

you missed the part about praying for a dead guy? that is a really cool sign.

tongues will cease... when perfection arrives...

everything is subject to the word of God. Even how God deals with mankind. Not because God cannot righteously deal with man in ways beyond the scope of scripture (he can as everything he does is righteous) but because the word of God is the guide post for us to understand him.

I saw that. Thought it went without saying that that would be a really cool sign. I have never seen it happen. It is one of the signs in the Bible, however, unlike gold flakes. Have you seen it happen?

Has perfection arrived? Have tongues ceased? I'm confused about the point you're making.

That I understand. What I don't get is how any of this helps us sort out fake signs from real (if any) signs. Gold flakes happen, though this sign is not mentioned in the Bible. Raising the dead doesn't (far as I know) happen, but that sign is in the Bible.

Still, the Bible does warn about false signs, so there is that. It doesn't tell you how to determine if a sign is fake, though. Sadly.
