Not to worry, liotta is quick to point out every time I appear to "ride my see-saw." Ooops, there I go again, I'm turning blue.

Awareness' point was rhetoric hyperbole, not to be taken literally. His point was if someone claims to be an apostle, ask them to do a miracle. If they can't, ignore their claim. I agree with that. Tell them to put up or shut up.
That doesn't mean there isn't apostolic-like work being done these days. It just means that someone who claims to be an apostle these days is looking for more than doing a work. He's looking for recognition and a following. If he wants me to follow him he'd better produce the goods.
I can't recall any significant work being done in the last 1800 years by anyone who claimed to be an apostle. All the ones I know of turned out to be vastly overrated, to say the least.
