The Wow Factor

In the Bible, in Mark 16:15-20, it reads, "And Jesus said to them, 'Go into all the world and preach (proclaim) the gospel (good news) to all creation. He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned. And these signs (attesting miracles) will accompany those who have believed; in My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it shall not hurt them; they will lays hands on the sick, and they will recover.' So then, when the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God. And they went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them and CONFIRMED THE WORD by the signs (attesting miracles) that followed."
God is truth. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life..." Every word in the Bible is true, and unless it says otherwise, is literally true. As a matter of fact, Jesus said not to add to or take away from the Word. It also said Jesus is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. And God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are one God, not three. It's like humans are body, mind and spirit. Water is liquid, ice and steam. It's called the Holy Trinity, but it is one God. These words are for today just as much as they were for 2,000 years ago. Just before Jesus ascended into heaven, he commanded (not requested) them to GO and PROCLAIM the good news - that He beat death. And if people will believe this and be baptized, then they can beat death too.
And the cool part on this planet is when you truly believe, you will be accompanied by miracles to confirm God's word is truth. You will have God's power to cast out demons. You will get the power from the Holy Spirit and speak with new tongues. You will have God's power to lay hands on sick people, and they will recover. At the end of the above verse, it says 'while the Lord worked with them.' It is God's power with them that allows them to do these things.
Notice also that Jesus did not limit the power to just a few. He said these signs (miracles) will follow THEM THAT BELIEVE!!
Meditate on this. Get it into your head. This is powerful stuff. This is truth.
