Miracles of Jesus

Burgeon, you are so kind and loving. I'm blessed to have such friends in Jesus as the people here.
This thread is really interesting and I agree with ZScripture it should continue. There is nothing more amazing than what Christ did for us. We can't even grasp a percentage. And the incredible part of the miracle of Christ is He Lives in us. Death to 'self' and pro to His life in us. We're talking about Christ raising Lazarus from the dead and other miracles.
For Christ Spiritual Death Was More Real Than Physical Death. Hence the Latter He Called Sleep.
"And so I am gradually led to the conviction that this was not what Jesus mean't by death at all. In the habitual thought of that supreme intelligence, death was something darker and more terrible. It was not death to Him when the silver chord was loosed, nor when the pitcher ws broken at the fountain. It was not death to Him when the strong men bowed themselves, and when the daughters of music were brought low. All that was life, though it was life asleep, in the mighty arms of the eternal God, and death was something more terrible than that. Mark5:39 - The maiden is not dead, but sleepeth; but - Luke 15:32 - This my son was dead and is alive again. The maiden is not dead, but sleepeth; but - let the dead bury their dead. The maiden is not dead, but sleepeth; but - he who believeth upon Me though he were dead, yet shall he live. Christ did not find the dead in Jarius' house, nor in any sepulchre among the Galilean hills. He saw the dead where men and women were - in the synagogue and in the market and in the home. And so Christ does not find the dead where the flowers are withering on the grave, but where where men are, and where women are, who have a name to live and yet are dead. If half the anguish of the open grave were felt for those who are living useless lives, if half the tears that fall upon the coffin fell upon the hearts that are frivolous of obdurate, not only would we be nearer to Christ in His deepest thought about humanity, but we should know more than we have ever known of the joy that cometh in the morning. For love and faith and prayer are powerless to bring again the dear one who is lost. No lifting heavenward of anguished hands will give us back again the one we loved. But "this my son was dead and is alive again" - and there is music and dancing in the home tonight, and there is joy in heaven, where the Father dwelleth, over one sinner that repenteth."

How different Jesus is to any of the world's thoughts. There's only one way to the God, to Love, and that's Him. What an awesome friend we have in Him. He gave his life so we can live again. Thank God

Thank all of you for the posts here! It is difficult to comprehend, as if you feel you know somewhat of Him, but as Paul said – only in part.
In the verse below, Jesus applies “I Am” to Himself
JN 8:54 Jesus replied, "If I glorify myself, my glory means nothing. My Father, whom you claim as your God, is the one who glorifies me. 55 Though you do not know him, I know him. If I said I did not, I would be a liar like you, but I do know him and keep his word. 56 Your father Abraham rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day; he saw it and was glad."57 "You are not yet fifty years old," the Jews said to him, "and you have seen Abraham!"58 "I tell you the truth," Jesus answered, "before Abraham was born, I am!" 59 At this, they picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus hid himself, slipping away from the temple grounds.
A few days ago I was turning the channels on the television, and a satellite image caught my eye. I turned it back, although I do not remember what channel. Incredibly there was the name of the Lord inscribed in Hebrew plain as day upon the topography of Israel, it said the locations where the Name started and ended, which I can not recall - the house was loud and distracting.
The verses below in English contain that Hebrew word – The LORD, interesting is God says “the name by which I am to be remembered from generation to generation.” What a great wonder His Name to be actually written upon the area He promised to Abraham!
EX 3:14 God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: `I AM has sent me to you.' "15 God also said to Moses, "Say to the Israelites, `The LORD, the God of your fathers--the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob--has sent me to you.' This is my name forever, the name by which I am to be remembered from generation to generation.

I hope you feel better BROTHERSINARMST4G. I really agree with you Wildwood. I enjoy thinking about Jesus all day and what he did for us. It is true, God worked miracles then, and he still does to this day. God bless y'all.
