Miracles

Paper Summary:

The purpose of this paper is to introduce, discuss, and analyze eight Biblical miracles. Specifically, it briefly describes each sign or miracle and explains how this sign or miracle reveals the deity of Christ. Each of these miracles creates an aura of goodness and wonder around Christ and unerringly indicates his deity and his mission on Earth. The miracles performed by Christ are the turning of water to wine, the healing of the nobleman's son, the healing of a lame man, the feeding of the 5,000, walking on water, the healing of a blind man, the raising of Lazarus from the dead, and the miraculous catch of fish.

From the Paper:

"The next miracle is the feeding of the 5,000 (6:1-14). As the word of Christ's powers began to spread, great numbers of people followed him to the sight of his next miracle, the Sea of Galilee, where he created enough food from a few loaves and fishes to feed 5,000 people. His disciples were by his side, and Passover was on the horizon, so he worried how to feed the people. He spoke to his Father, and knew just what to do. He distributed five barley loaves and two fish from the Sea to the crowd, and they fed all, and filled up twelve baskets with the leftovers. The people who had eaten recognized Christ was a prophet after this. Another natural miracle, this story again shows the power of Jesus, and his great abilities."
