“If There Be No Faith Among the Children of Men God Can Do No Miracle Among Them”
Miracles are the fruits of faith, the Prophet Joseph taught.“ . . . Where faith is there will be some of the fruits: all gifts and power which were sent from heaven, were poured out on the heads of those who had faith.” (HC 5:355) On another occasion he explained that the lack of miracles comes in direct proportion to the lack of faith. “Faith has been waiting not only among the heathen, but in professed Christendom also, so that tongues, healings, prophecy, and prophets and apostles, and all the gifts and blessings have been wanting” (HC 5:218). See Mormon 9:20; Moroni 7:26-29; and corresponding commentaries.
