Scriptures say it all

Clergy who take Holy
Scripture seriously are
pressed into confronting their
congregations with the mirac-
ulous.

This is not exactly an easy
task since our jaded genera-
tion is prone to be very skep-
tical about something not
readily explainable by scien-
tific research. A book contain-
ing children’s letters to God
expresses that mindset rather
well.

One little boy wrote:

“Dear God: Your book has a
lot of zip in it. I like science fic-
tion stories. You had very good
ideas, and I would like to know
where you found them.”

— Your reader, Jimmy.

I want to say, without apol-
ogy, that I fully accept the
miraculous elements con-
tained in Holy Scripture. After
all, it is that which makes
Christianity unique as op-
posed to other religions such
as Hinduism or Buddhism.

If one wishes to subtract
the miraculous from the
Gospels which would involve
removing such stories as Je-
sus changing water into wine,
bringing that dead youth at
Nain back to life, or the ac-
counts of Jesus’ own resurrec-
tion, one might just as well
disregard the entire Bible.
Something similar to what
would be left can be found also
in other sources.

Belief in the miraculous is
intimately tied up with the
person of Jesus Christ.

As John wrote in his
Gospel: “Jesus did many other
miraculous signs. . . but these
are written that you may be-
lieve that Jesus is the Christ,
the Son of God, and that by be-
lieving you may have life in
his name.” (John 20:30-31)

Note: What the Gospels call
for is belief in Jesus not mere-

ly as a good man or even as
prophet but as the eternal God
who stepped into human his-
tory. Doing so for our eternal

Pew

Church

rescue.

Belief in the miraculous is
also essential for a basic;prac-
tice of Christianity, namely,
prayer. In prayer we regularly
ask god for miracles. After all,
if we were capable of accom-
plishing such things by our-
selves, we would not pray.

Indeed, belief in the mirac-
ulous may not take place with-
out some struggle.

My personal difficulty

when it comes to a miracle,
which is usually deseribed as
something which transcends
the ordinary laws of nature, is
to know where the line is to be
drawn. That marvelous explo-
sion of color which I find in a
flower garden at this time of
year for me has always far ex-
ceeded what I would class as
“ordi ” ;
Even though babies are
conceived and born with
dulling frequency, can we hon-
estly class that as non-mirac-
ulous? When it comes to our
own human make-up, must
we not exclaim with the in-
spired psalmist: “I am fearful-
ly and wonderfully made.” (Ps.
139:14).

But the greatest of all mira-
cles in Scripture is the cross of
Jesus Christ. Though it in-
volved suffering and death,
out of that came new life not
only for Him but for all who
spirituall, ly lean on Him as the
Saviour.

tral message that one in three

toring services expected when
