4. God Revealed Through Miracles.
Miracle
consists in either the manifestation or the control of power in the physical
world beyond human capability. It is not the breaking of the laws of nature,
but rather the exercising of supernatural power or control over those laws. In
Bible times God chose to work through physical miracles and signs and wonders
with His people Israel (Exodus 7-19; 1 Corinthians1:22). Having cast that nation aside during
this present dispensation, He no longer works in this way, as Paul makes plain
in 1 Corinthians 13:8. Christ appealed to His mighty works as one of the
witnesses of His Deity (John 5:36). These miracles reveal both the power of God and His goodness,
as He healed the sick, opened blind eyes, raised the dead, and delivered His
saints from prison.
