Christian Inaccuracies In The Bible

When looking in the Gospel of Matthew 15:21-28 and the Gospel of Mark 7:24-30 one can find that each of these pieces of their respective gospels have both some similarities and differences. There is evidence of overlap between these two which are quite easy to find whilst one is reading the sections of each. There also are points in which these two accounts diverge from one another by either telling a certain part of the other gospel in a different way, removing content from one of the other gospels, or adding something that may not have been referenced or described in the other. Either way these accounts from Matthew and Mark both have connections to each other even if not visible on the surface.

2. There were two types of miracles that Jesus performed. One of the types is spiritual miracles. These were the things Jesus did that involved spiritual matters, such as when He cast out demons in Mark 5:1-13, and whenever He forgave someone's sins, like in Luke 7: 11-17. The other type was physical miracles. These were His physical doings, like in Matthew 8:5-13 where He healed illnesses in people. When Jesus calmed the storm in Mark 4:35-41, and when He raised the dead in Luke 11:17, those things were physical miracles.

The next sign miracle was another demonstration of his ability to heal. Jesus healed a man born blind. This healing prompted a similar reaction from the Pharisees and the Jews that healing the lame man did; although, in this instance it was not done in violation of the Sabbath day. This was the first time Jesus had admitted openly that illness or affliction have been placed on someone for the sole purpose of revealing God’s glory.

The miracle of curing a blind man gives shows the skepticism of the masses towards the new religion that was being founded. This miracle takes multiple attempts and when completed gives the man complete vision. However; Jesus tells the man to not return to the village that he had come. The texts surrounding these verses have this similar theme of ‘silent’ miracles. The part that sparks my interest is showing what people thought about Jesus at this time. I think showing that the miracle took two attempts shows that people were skeptical about this

Miracles are significant to the believability of the Bible in many aspects. Christianity is based upon the belief in certain miraculous events as fact. There would be no believing in Jesus, without believing in miracles. On one hand, miracles are easy to criticize because nobody can present a miracle with authority like Jesus Christ. But on the other hand, miracles are easy to confirm when they are properly justified to be the purposeful actions of God.

I love this scripture, John 4:43-54. This scripture shows how the sign of Jesus miracles can indirectly heal a person. With the official's faith in Jesus' miraculous power, he wanted Jesus to go with him to heal his dying son. Jesus told him to depart for home because his son was already healed. By believing and having faith, the official took Jesus by his word and his son was miraculously healed immediately. Not only his son was healed, because of his belief and faith in the power of God, but his whole household also became

Historians use the accounts of other people in Jesus’ time to relate to his life.

Additionally, John indicates most of Jesus works in Galilee and Jerusalem while synoptic gospels place it in Galilee and Judea. Jesus’ teachings in the four gospels were mainly in parables and there is account of Jesus speaking with any figure. In contrast gospel of John accounts that Jesus used philosophical speeches in his teachings and interacted with figures like Nicodemus. Another event that distance gospel of

By this point you may have noticed that I believe that miracles are a real thing. In fact, I know that they are. Yet, there are some people — especially here in the so-called “Western” world (which I prefer to call the minority world) — who deny that miracles occur. Let me briefly discuss this claim.

Every miracle that Jesus performed was unique. I think that in today’s Gospel we can hear one of the most interesting miracles that Jesus performed. Mark tells us the story of Jesus healing the deaf man who had a speech problem. Jesus’ compassion is so great that when the man approaches him, He takes the man aside and heals him. And this is the first thing that can be very surprising and unique. But why does Jesus take the deaf man off by himself away from the crowd? It seems that it would be more effective to cure somebody in the presence of others. In this case everyone would be able to see and believe that Jesus Christ is the Messiah, that He is one who is sent from God, that He has divine power. But we see that Jesus thinks in very different way. For him it’s not so important human effectiveness but true and dense encounter with a person. The Lord wants to be alone with him, away from the noise and activity of the crowd. He wants to be able to communicate with him in
