Signs and Miracles

Paper Summary:

This paper explains that Christ used miracles and signs of wonder upon the earth, not as acts of magic, but of showing the ability of the divine to be made flesh, of being able to make the world a good place in its physical as well as its spiritual essence. The author stresses that every time an individual rises from bed every day, weathers the difficulties of ordinary existence in the physical, sinning world and still accomplishes good, these acts are a kind of miracle. The paper concludes that, today, signs of miracles are everywhere, if only one looks at the goodness of the world and the manifestation of Christ.

From the Paper:

"One cannot demand signs and miracles of the world and of God. Such manifestations of faith occur spontaneously, of course. The Acts of the Apostles 2:22 says that Christ's manifestation of signs and miracles proved him a man of God. Yet signs and miracles are ever-present in the world today, in extraordinary as well as ordinary manifestations. To dwell in a God-created world is a miracle."
