Really? Lol!
Romans 1:19-20 Because that which is known of God is manifest in them. For God hath manifested it unto them. For the invisible things of him, from the creation of the world, are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made; his eternal power also, and divinity: so that they are inexcusable.
John 11:39-40, 43-44 Jesus saith: Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith to him: Lord, by this time he stinketh, for he is now of four days. Jesus saith to her: Did not I say to thee, that if thou believe, thou shalt see the glory of God? … When he had said these things, he cried with a loud voice: Lazarus, come forth. And presently he that had been dead came forth, bound feet and hands with winding bands; and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus said to them: Loose him, and let him go.
John 20:27 Then he saith to Thomas: Put in thy finger hither, and see my hands; and bring hither thy hand, and put it into my side; and be not faithless, but believing."
Jesus performed miracles to prove that He was God!! So that you would believe and KEEP THE FAITH!! But you don't have the faith.

The proof, sister, is in your heart. None of us here were physically present at the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus, yet we believe it because it is in our hearts. Our friend posted part of the conversation with Thomas, but did he not leave out the most important part?
"Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed." John 20:29
Faith is where it must begin, but as we grow we should, I believe, be moving from faith in things of God to knowledge. That knowledge held can be shared with others, but who among those that do not also have it would believe it is so because you say it? Did everyone always immediately and completely believe everything that Jesus said to them?
This is the point of my post, God performed miracles to prove that He was God and that all could trust in what He was saying, so that they would keep the faith i.e. the catholic faith.

Good one @amadeus I was just too tired last night to think ..let alone respond to posts. But I do like being challenged ...we become complacent when we just rest comfortably in what we believe...it needs to be challenged now and again, to confirm in our own heart that we do indeed believe what we believe.
Challenge is always good. :)

God performed miracles to prove that He was God?
Did proving that to them save all of the masses of people who heard the words of Jesus and witnessed his miracles? Where they when Barabbas was released instead of Jesus?
Consider how many of those who witnessed the miracles of God in Egypt died in the wilderness without ever entering into the Promised Land. What was the difference between them and the two [Joshua and Caleb] who made it?
In the case of Jesus did not many people simply like having their bellies filled without having to work for it?
"Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled? John 6:26
Its not a secret, that God has said that few are saved throughout biblical history. The purpose of the miracles was for those who would come to the catholic faith.
Since you write the word "catholic" without caps, it could correspond to where I am, but then again we will probably not agree on many things. If we are both still growing we might have to recheck the differences periodically. Hopefully they decreasing as we progress.
As to how many were saved throughout biblical history, I don't have an accurate count on that. Jesus did say,
"For many are called, but few are chosen." Matt 22:14
Give God the glory!

if you type your reply after the quote is closed, your words will not appear to be Amadeus'
There is no connotation with all caps, regarding Catholic. I am a traditional catholic, period.
The white elephant in the room is, that compared to the vast majority who go to hell, the number of the elect is, by far, much smaller.
Most of them who call themselves Christian will not miss because of doctrine, as I see it, but for lack of Love or Charity as per I Corinthians chapter 13.

this one makes a big leap based on some faulty assumptions imo, but hardly salvational i guess
It is interesting that liars like you never bring forward the evidence for which they falsely point to. Bring forward your refutation in detail!

ah, how can i, when you have already deemed yourself un...able to hear witnesses?
Hasn't judgement already been rendered here, iow?
But if you can provide an example of an oracle, hearing (or an apology, of course), then i will, ok?
I asked you to bring forward your refutation and you cannot because you cannot refute the truth.
