CL.011 Miracles in the Bible: Signs of God's Presence and Power
Taught by Rev. Dr. Rodger Nishioka, co-pastor. 6:30-8 p.m. Wednesdays, May 1, 8 & 15 Rooms 132/133. Registration for childcare is required: bit.ly/VPCChildcare.
In the Gospel of Luke, when Jesus is asked if he is indeed the Messiah, he replies, “The blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor have good news brought to them.” For Jesus, proof of his identity comes through the miracles he performed. So, what do we make of the miracles and wonders and signs in the Bible? How do we as modern thinkers equipped with our scientific knowledge understand miracles? Together, we will explore miracles in the Old and New Testament and better understand what they meant then and what they mean to us now.
