Subject: Why Could He Not Do Many Miracles? |
Bible Note: Hi, Immanuelsown... Just a side comment here: In Christianity, there is really very little value in holding to a sole opinion, apart from all other believers (2 Peter 1:20-21; Ephesian 4:8-14). Our Lord is the source of all truth (John 17:17). None of us should imagine that we have some unique illumination (Matthew 23:8-12). If we are to expect the grace of God, we should seek the truth in humility (James 4:5-6). We are continually in the process of exposing the truth. Furthermore, there is an old aphorism that states, "If it is true, it probably isn't new; if it is new, it probably isn't true." Orthodoxy reflects the careful scrutiny of many centuries of Bible Scholars -- men far more learned and Godly than you and I shall be in this life time! :-) In Him, Doc |
