The book of Revelation was the final book of the bible. There are no further revelations. This means that God is not revealing anything new. When God is revealing something it is accompanied by signs and miracles. On the day of Pentecost God was revealing the Gospel of his Son Jesus Christ, it was followed by signs and miracles. Now that we have the full revelation of Christ and his Gospel in the New Testament signs and miracles have ceased.
God has said all that is going to say when he gave us Christ.
"God who at sundry times and in divers manners spoke in times past unto the fathers by the prophets. Has in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he has appointed all things, by whom also he made the worlds" Hebrews 1:1, 2.
The last days are the days that follow after the resurrection and ascension of Christ into heaven. We are now living in the last days. There are no new apostles such as John Calvin or whoever. There are no new revelations or doctrines such as Catholicism. The Bible is a closed book.
To look for signs and miracles today is to be an adulturous and sinful generation, Matthew 12:39. The reason that there are no signs or miracles today is because God is not communicating anything new to us. He does not want to take away from the greatest miracle of all miracles, the incarnation and Gospel of his Son Jesus Christ.
This is the church age, it is also the age of grace and faith. This is the age that God is adding to his church through the preaching of the Gospel of his Son Jesus Christ. Faith in Christ and his Gospel is the entrance into eternal life. To say that God is still doing miracles is to say that God has something further to communicate to us. There is nothing further.
