Famous Christian Quotes About Miracles

New Miracles Not Needed to Prove Christ’s Office

We have the full use and benefit of the Holy Ghost which was given then. That seal that was then set to the Christian doctrine and Scriptures stands there still. When Christ has fully proved to the world the truth of his mediatorship, office, and doctrine, must he still continue the same actions?

Richard Hooker
