Glory to God or Glory to the Doctrine
When God does a miracle through one of us (Oneness), how do we view that? Confirmation we have the truth? Do we just give God the glory or do we use it as a banner to proclaim we have the truth and everyone else does not?
Do you believe non OP's experience miracles from God?

Re: Glory to God or Glory to the Doctrine
Maybe I should change the title to "Do miracles confirm our doctrine?"

Re: Glory to God or Glory to the Doctrine
Miracles do not confirm OP doctrine.
Miracles have been happening for centuries in response to faith.
These miracles happen in many different religious groups with a variety of doctrine.

Re: Glory to God or Glory to the Doctrine
Miracles can confirm true doctrine. They can also be a catylist for guiding us into more truth.

Excellent thread!
I do believe that miracles can fall upon a diverse kind of people, oneness and others as well! That confirms faith, not doctrine.
Sad to say, the more conservative the doctrine, the less they believe in the miraculous. I've seen it a lot in traveling.

Re: Glory to God or Glory to the Doctrine
Miracles confirm that faith was preached perhaps - not sure how much more.
I believe miracles happen, but I am skeptical of all claims whether made by OP's or others.

We should give glory to God, yes, both OP's and non OP's experience miracles, as God wills.
