We see sometimes on "the other side", the false prophets, occult "leaders", etc. try to mimic God's miracles, or otherwise mislead people with such activity. When Moses threw down his rod and it became a snake, Pharaoh called his magicians, and they did the same with their rods. {Although Moses' snake ate the others.} In Revelation we read of the false prophet, the antichrist's partner. "And he performs great wonders, so that he should even call down fire from heaven in the sight of men." And in 2 Thessalonians we read, "whose coming is with all lying signs and wonders and deceitfulness in those that perish, because they received not the love of the Truth that they should be saved. but took pleasure in unrighteousness." I've heard of people who are "healed" of some sickness by some occultist that wasn't healed any other way. So I say, it's not a question of the devil's group "can't" do supernatural things, but more so, what's the PURPOSE behind it? To mislead, or KEEP in deception. {Like statues of Mary bleeding.} So I say, keep our eyes, not on every miraculous event, but on the purpose behind it. If some Hindu "holy man" does something spectacular, I don't fall for it, because I see the gist of the "religion" compared to what the Bible states. A point?
