"Jesus: Who is He?"
 

His Miracles

 

The accounts of  Jesus' miracles are a crucial part of the story of Jesus found in the Gospels.  There are accounts of miracles at almost every turn.  His miracles and His teachings are constantly being interwoven.

John 20: 30-31, He did many miracles even beyond the ones reported in the Gospels.

Four Important points:

(1)  He demonstrated His miraculous power in many different realms:

a.  Over illness   Mark 1:29-31 & Mark 2:1-11
b.  Over nature  Mark 4: 35-41 & Mark 6:45-51
c.  Over the demonic  Mark 1:32-34
d.  Over hunger   Mark 6:35-43
e.  Over death    Luke 7:11

(2) His severest critics did not deny His miracles, but claimed they were done by Satan's power.  Matthew. 12:22-24.

(3) Jesus said, "Don't believe me unless I can back up my claims with the miracles."  John 10:37-38, 14:11.

(4) The reason people did not follow Him was not because He could not do the miracles, they didn't follow because they wanted a comfortable life.  John 12:42
