What does the Bible say about seeking signs?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible warns against seeking signs as a basis for faith, emphasizing that true faith comes from hearing and believing the Word of God (Luke 11:29-32).

The Bible identifies the act of seeking signs as characteristic of an evil generation. Jesus makes it clear that no signs will be given except for the 'sign of Jonah,' which signifies the prophetic nature of His death and resurrection. True faith is not based on miracles or signs but is rooted in the revelation of God found in Scripture. In Romans 10:17, we see that faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God, indicating that a proper foundation for faith must be God's word rather than observable phenomena.
