How many miracles did Peter perform?

Answer 1

If you are talking about miracles in the biblical sense, then Peter performed no miracles. The fact is: no apostle or human being has ever performed, or can everperform a miracle. Miracles can be performed throughhuman beings but miracles cannot be performed byhuman beings. All such biblical type miracles which have been performed in the past - and which are performed in the present - through human beings derive from spirit (or God as Christians prefer) and from the power which derives from the spirit. It is the Father (or spirit) working through the human being that doeth the work of creating the miracle or spiritual phenomenon.

Answer 2

A:

By his own account, Paul did not perform any miracles, but remember that he was writing to people who actually knew him and he could not risk his credibility by writing to them about miracles and wonders if they never really happened, since he could be challenged to substantiate any events he described.

However, after a safe interval of several decades, the author of Acts attributes previously unknown miracles to Paul. If Acts attributed a previously unknown miracle to Paul, then his followers or admirers were unlikely to complain, but quite comparable miracles are also associated with Peter, and the miracles associated with Paul are always less impressive those associated with Peter. There is likely to have been a theological purpose to the revisions made by the author of Acts, and the less credulous student of The Bible will be unlikely to believe Paul performed any miracles.
