Lesson Overview

Even after 2000 years, the miracles of Jesus still raise questions: Did Jesus really cause the lame to walk, give sight to the blind, and raise the dead? Or were His supernatural acts merely legends created by His followers. Many simply can’t believe that the miracles recorded in the New Testament gospels actually happened or that miracles are even possible. What evidence can we find for a miracle-working Jesus? And what can the ancient land of the Bible reveal?

Lesson Objectives

When you complete this lesson, you should be able to:

  • Understand common mistaken ideas about what a miracle is.
  • Articulate key New Testament terms for a miracle.
  • Define a biblical miracle.
  • Summarize the initial healing and preaching ministry of Jesus Christ.
  • Remember an overview of Jesus Christ’s ministry by reading Knowing God Through John.

Personal Reflection

As you proceed through this lesson have the following question in mind.
Since most people have never personally seen the natural laws of the universe altered, some deny that true miracles could ever occur. Do you believe in miracles? What is the basis for your view?
