“Signs of an Apostle”
2 Corinthians 12:12
12 Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.
Elder Bruce R. McConkie wrote:
“Signs of an Apostle [are] those miracles, gifts of the Spirit, visions, and revelations which God pours out upon all those who love and serve Him. They are healing the sick, casting out devils, raising the dead; they are preaching and teaching and suffering in the Cause of Christ; they are walking uprightly before all men and being adopted into the family of God as His sons, becoming thus joint-heirs with His natural Son. They are precisely the same divine endowments which should rest upon all the elders of the kingdom, upon every person who has received the right to the constant companionship of the Holy Spirit.”
(Doctrinal New Testament Commentary, 3 vols. [1965–73], 2:450.)
