Evidence of miracles.

I cover that in my Signature file below.

I don’t see where.

Maybe, but AV used the Bible as evidence for the HS.

So how do you know the HS is communicating with you?

Knowing God Through Answered Prayer - Steps 1, 2, 3

This is the method needed to allow the Spirit in:
Suppress your desire to control the outcome and even your insistence on controlling the request.

The Father already heard your past and future prayers before He formed the World. Then He set up the entire world to answer each one of your prayers and conversations with Him.

Again:

He then set up the entire world to answer each one of your prayers and conversations with Him.

Now, all one has to do is trust His judgment to either get their prayer changed, or their prayer answered as He wills it. But on the occasion of true surrender, He steps in AS IF with a magic wand and grants your prayers.

On one occasion, God answered my prayers weeks before I prayed for somebody else's benefit. He then handed me the prayer in those minutes before answering it just so I would know He was with there and was the "God With Us". He fill my mind with the message "It is Done."

If there were a personal god, one wouldn't need incantations, spells, and steps to get it to communicate.

There's only one step really. You need to be able to listen.
But thanks for considering it at least one time.

Self hypnosis does.

I read about how native Americans would go on a spirit quest,
by such as going alone to fast and chant for however long it took.

I don’t see where.

Have faith

 

[FrumiousBandersnatch]

But was anybody telling the truth at all? That was my question.
I could also ask if the research team was competent.

As I said before, it's a judgement on the balance of probabilities. Meta-analyses combine the results of many studies and generally take account of discernable quality. It would be extremely improbable that all would be lies and/or incompetent, and there are various ways to tell if data has been falsified (e.g. Benford's Law).

 

[FrumiousBandersnatch]

Perhaps every person was healed.

And another miracle ensured the healing wasn't detected?

 

[FrumiousBandersnatch]

Because I'm questioning your source. Yes, I get it. I'm not allowed to question your sources.

Of course it's legitimate to question sources. What is not reasonable is to dismiss them en-masse sight unseen.

Given that you haven't yet asked to see the sources, I frankly doubt your interest in seriously evaluating them.

 

[FrumiousBandersnatch]

That's the same standards I use for answered prayer. Thank you.

Interesting - what are the probabilities you take into account?

 

[FrumiousBandersnatch]

It wasn't a question.

Nor was my post an answer.

I like your style.

Well, that's not what I'm doing. For some reason you think that having people on earth with the powers of God would be a handy resource or something. And are angry that is not the case.

More likely, they would be crucified and I don't see why you think that is good.
I'm just trying to determine where the simmering anger is sourced.

 

[Astrid]

I like your style.

As long as you know it applies to everyone

atheistic apologetics

 

[AV1611VET]

I like your style.

I do too actually -- in an unfortunate sort of way.

Short, sweet, and to the point.

And peppered with sarcasm at times.

Thanks for answering my question.

For all my personal relationships all I have to do is talk to them and they will respond. If I need help from a friend they will help if I just ask. It does not matter how I ask or how humbly I ask. God seems to have an unreasonably hard process for answering prayer that He says He will answer if you just ask.

What's His name?

John 14:13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
