The 33 Miracles Of Jesus Christ

Jesus of Nazareth performed many miracles, demonstrating his power over nature and spirits, and thus confirming that the Kingdom of God is at hand (Mark 1:15). "Come, follow me, and I will make you fishers of men" (Matthew 4:19). Through the above miracle, Jesus recruited his first four Apostles - Peter, his brother Andrew, and James and John.

As you read this book, you will see all the times and places that Jesus Christ used the powers of the supernatural to promote the work of God in his ministry. You will also be greatly encouraged to pursue and serve God with passion and fervor in manner that will bring the blessings of God upon your generation.

In a physical miracle, such as making the blind see, or walking on water, or calming a storm, the laws of the universe are suspended through divine intervention. In a moral miracle, such as forgiveness of sins or driving out demons, the blessing of Jesus purifies the soul. In Mark 2:1-12, Jesus performed a physical miracle, healing the paralytic, to demonstrate a moral miracle, the forgiveness of sins.

The miracle stories are an integral part of the Gospel narrative, as in the Gospel of Mark, where nearly half of Mark's account of the public ministry of Jesus (Chapters 1-10) describes miracles. The ministry of Jesus is centered on the establishment of God's imminent Kingdom, which ended the dominion of the evil one over the world, present ever since sin and death entered mankind. The miracles were Jesus' chief weapon in the struggle with evil (Mark 3:22-27), the most direct being the exorcism of demons, which defeated the power of evil and liberated humanity. That is why a miracle is an act of power in the Synoptic Gospels, the Greek word being , the origin of our English words dynamic and dynamite. John in his Gospel utilizes the word (sign). The word (wonder) is mainly found in the Acts of the Apostles. The Gospels record twelve miracles in Capernaum, more than anywhere else in the Holy Land.
