Question 312: What Were The “Greater Works” To Which Yeshua Referred That His Disciples Would Do?

Answer:

Moshiach always objected to being regarded as a mere wonder-worker. He wanted the people to look upon His miracles merely as His credentials and to argue from them that He who could do such things was sent from YHVH. The miracles were intended to lead them to trust in Him for eternal life. Consequently, when as He said, He went to the Father and Ruach HaKodesh was given to His disciples, they were enabled to do those greater works, such as the conversions at Shavuot, which Moshiach held to be of a far higher order than miracles (John 14:12).
