People who criticize the supernatural are people who have never seen the supernatural.

There they can find plenty of fault.
Just go to work. Do your research. Documentation can be uncovered. You can start with my mother. When you are finished with that, you can then move to the great miracle of my wife. There are thousands of great miracles waiting for you to document. Your work is cut out for you but it can be done.
That's just it. I've only done a cursory search but many others have done a full one. Based on all the testimonies one would think it would be easy to find photos of a man with an amputated limb and photos of the same man sporting a new arm or leg after a healing. New limbs and body parts really are the Holy Grail of healings. There are plenty of "my pain went away!", but no known documented ones of dramatic visual nature.
But... perhaps there is a reason we don't see these types of miracles, despite all the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th hand accounts of them. Any minister who had one happen would immediately be worshiped as a god by at least 1/3 to 1/2 of the witnesses.

If someone genuinely had a leg that needed lengthening, I only wonder what difference one would see to know it was genuine if it was healed.
Since leg lengthening is one of the big "tricks" of the trade, would God actually perform such a miracle in front of an audience? Wouldn't that be a bit like God giving someone the gift of spoon bending, or even linking 5 stainless steel rings?

Is God displeased when people see a fake miracle and call it fake? Probably not. But is He displeased when people mistakenly call one of His real miracles fake? Does He make any allowances for us mere mortals to be mistaken? Or does He expect us to be right in all of our assessments of such things?

John 20:29 KJV Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
Hebrews 11:6 KJV But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Why? Jesus performed wonders before crowds and so did Paul. God is concerned with helping people. I do not think he is so concerned whether or not it is in front of people. What has steel rings or spoon bending go to do with helping people?

I had just returned from Vietnam in January after having been gone from any kind of a real Holy Ghost church service for more than a year. I was very hungry to be in church. I hitched hiked to Miracle Valley Arizona and was there for the entire Mid-Winter Camp Meeting. It was a great blessing. It was in this meeting that the lady preacher from Angles Temple received a miracle breast by a creative miracle.
They brought forth this lady with oil running down her hands on upon her arms. The next day as we assembled in the dining hall, she and I with her husband stood in line and began talking about the wonderful things God was doing and of the events of the night before. As we stood there praising God, the glory of God came on the woman. She then held up her hands and the oil began to form as glistening diamonds. Together, the three of us praised God. The more we praised God, the more the oil flowed until her hands were soaked with it. It was quite an amazing sight to see. The oil smelled wonderful. There've been many people tried to debunk this great miracle but I testify of the truth of it it, first hand.
What does that sign mean? It means nothing more than God will work the way he chooses to with whom he chooses for his own glory. It just simply means that God is present. After all, isn't that one of his names...Jehovah There?
