Does Paul list all the miraculous manifestations in the early church?
No, Paul does not explicitly delineate all the miraculous manifestations in the early church. The context notes there were other manifestations of the miraculous, but Paul does not list them. Instead, he keeps the focus on whether miracles come through the Law or through the Spirit activated by faith.
Les explains that while there were undoubtedly other manifestations of the miraculous in the early church, Paul doesn't explicitly delineate them. The question remains whether any miracle came through keeping the Law or through the manifestation of the Spirit activated by faith. Les emphasizes that the Law could not produce miracles; only the Holy Spirit, activated by faith, brings about miraculous transformation. The real miracle is moving from paganism to a whole new lifestyle. He stresses we are not under Law but under grace, saved by grace through faith plus nothing.
He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
