Although I'd like to agree with you in that a lost sinner becoming a child of God really is a wonderful thing it would be a tragic misunderstanding of the awesome Power and Majesty of our Lord to label this event as a miracle. In keeping with the spirit of the Forum and calling events from the Bible their true God-given names, we should NOT downgrade the meaning of something as powerful and evidence of Christianity as a miracle. In Bible times, both OT and NT, miracles was truly a wonderous event, one that was absolutely and unquestionably a supernatural event, one that absolutely COULD NOT be done without God's participation. So I'll agree child birth from a woman is a miracle. The very idea of an embryo growing into a fully developed child is truly a supernatural even. I'll agree when a person goes to the hospital and gets the proverbial last speech from his doctor and walks out of that hospital with a few months/years to live and no hope, that's tragic. But then, he walks in for a checkup later on and experiences full and complete remission, that is clearly a miracle. Let's not water down God's Word or insult God Almighty by calling anything less one of His Awesome Displays and Power and Majesty. Sorry, but I just had to throw in my two cents' worth into this discussion. Blessings on you, dear friend. Country Girl |

Country Girl Not to disagree miracles are in fact God's Awesome Displays and Power and Majesty. However I think that is where we have become tainted. The miracle of life is nothing less than exactly that, however since it happens on a regular basis be have become jaded to the miracle. Plus the fact that abortionists have attempted to explain it away in scientific terms. Never forget life is something only God can make occur. To me that is awesome. As for salvation, if you would have seen the changes in the lives of people upon their Salvation that I have seen and experienced you would classify it indeed an awesome miracle. However once again God in mercy and grace brings salvation on a regular basis and we become jaded to it. Your right a healing of someone under sentence of death from cancer is miracle but that miracle lives only as long as the person does. Salvation is a miracle that will be seen in eternity for all of eternity. Personally I prefer God awes me with more salvations. Scripture tells us in Luke 15:10 even the Angels rejoice at a salvation yet from all indications they remain silent when God moves a mountain. Perhaps they too understand what is truly a miracle.
