Works fine on my system (Mac v4.1). Recommend that you turn on the Axes and
manually set the PlotRange to make sure that you know exactly what is being
displayed.
Needs["Graphics`Shapes`"];
pts = Partition[Table[2Random[]-1, {30}], 3];
Show[Graphics3D[{PointSize[0.03],Map[Point,pts]}], Axes -> True,
PlotRange -> {{-1, 1}, {-1, 1}, {-1, 1}}];
Show[Graphics3D[{Sphere[],{PointSize[0.03],Map[Point,pts]}}], Axes -> True,
PlotRange -> {{-1, 1}, {-1, 1}, {-1, 1}}];
Show[Graphics3D[{Sphere[0.4],{PointSize[0.03],Map[Point,pts]}}],
Axes -> True, PlotRange -> {{-1,1},{-1,1},{-1,1}}];
