Essentially the opposite of this question: https://christianity.stackexchange.com/q/87159/50422 Some Christians believe that miracles ceased after the apostolic age -- or at least that miracles from God did, since many believe that counterfeit miracles from Satan have continued. What is the biblical basis for NOT expecting Godly miracles after the apostolic age? **Note 1**: By 'miracle' I mean the definition suggested by the ['miracles'](https://christianity.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/miracles) tag: *Actions of God not explained by normal laws of physics, chemistry, biology, or the natural sciences*. If you disagree with this definition and have the sufficient privileges, feel free to [edit the tag info](https://christianity.stackexchange.com/edit-tag-wiki/175) for 'miracles'. **Note 2**: Notice that I'm not talking about sign gifts. Belief in sign gifts does not follow (necessarily) from belief in miracles. There are many Cessationists who believe in miracles but lack a belief in the continuation of the sign gifts (e.g. see https://christianity.stackexchange.com/q/10020/50422) ____ Related: - https://christianity.stackexchange.com/q/10041/50422 - https://christianity.stackexchange.com/q/86488/50422
