"Christians" Tell me, John 14:20, what does this verse means to you?

It says clearly, "At that day, ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you." Do you feel that the Christ is in you? If so, should you be able to do the miracles he performed? If not, Why not?

Yes he said his prophets would be able to perform miracles. He said we would even be able to move mountains if we put our trust in God all though I think that was more symbolic. I haven't tried yet because one I see no purpose in screwing with the terrain and I simply have no reason to move a mountain lol.

It is like saying be filled with the holy Spirit.
The Power of G-d with Jesus Christ was able to heal teh sick and dead also.
Jesus Christ tried to reason so that people would be saved and by the miracles which were of God.
He was pleading so they would be saved and escape the second death.
The gospel left many people healed, fillled with the Holy Spiirt, edified and some had doubt.
He revealed the old testaement verse and said this prophecy is fulfilled this day as was in the synagogue.
The love and compassion he had on p[eople as he wept, prayed the deqad were raised, healed and delivered from afflictions and torment.
Praise God for Jesus Christ author and finisher of our faith

He refers to His resurrection when He returns to them alive. Read the text in context please. If you want to talk about miracles there are a lot of different verses to allude to. We do not "feel" Christ in us as in an ecstatic experience. We know it because of changed lives and His word. The miracles was to confirm that He was from God. John 3

2 This man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him.”

The Apostles and their associates had some of the same gifts, also to confirm their teaching about Christ. Now we have Scripture and do not need these gifts, hence some of them have died out. 2 Corinthians 5

7 For we walk by faith, not by sight.

Also remember Jesus words in John 20

29 Jesus said to him, “Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”

Jhn 14:20 At that day ye shall know that I [am] in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.

He was commenting upon his spiritual nature

Yes, Christ lives within (among) us

Luk 17:20 ¶ And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:
Luk 17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

No, he does not enable us to do miracles today as he did with his apostles and some of the early church. We now have Gods complete word on all things. Thats all we need and all that God ever wanted.

Christ dwells within His people so that they have Intimate communion with Him and His Father.

As far as miracles are concerned I would say; If Jesus chose to allow us to perform them then yes.
