Nor does every believer purposely drink poison, so why should we require the other signs in every individual believer.

I don't think we are in disagreement, just some clarification. Or maybe we are?

no i can agree with that. the point i was trying to make is, signs CAN follow anyone, not that it is required for signs to follow.

Jesus said

Joh 14:12 ¶ Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

if we are doing the works Jesus did and greater works, then it is likely that signs will follow. and alot of times i find that its an individual here and there that have the kind of faith that Jesus talked about.

so yes in the context you are talking about, i am in agreement, just wanted to clarify what was my thinking when i read all this.
