1. One one level, Jesus does an impressive work of feeding 5,000+ with just a few rolls and some fish. But on a deeper level, we see Jesus preparing the eternal feast for you.
  2. The Miracles of Jesus
  3. "Your faith has made you well" . . . except faith never believes in itself, but trusts only in its object, namely Jesus.
  4. Jesus, the Great Physician, does "healing" in a way that no one else can. When He heals, it goes beyond physical and into eternity.
  5. Being a Christ-follower is indeed a bed of roses. But don't forget: roses have thorns. Jesus advises potential disciples to count the cost.
  6. God bestows faith that it should deal not with ordinary things, but with things no human being can master such as death, sin, the world, and Satan.
  7. If the Risen Christ is ushering in a new kingdom and a new creation, then maybe we shouldn’t be surprised to see some earth-shaking and mind-blowing things taking place.
  8. Jesus rejects what we believe is most necessary and instead points us to his pain, suffering, death, and self-sacrifice.
  9. Jesus’s touch of this leper is the touchstone of the gospel itself. It’s a living parable of his entire ministry.
  10. While you are busy working at being passive in your righteousness, let God sanctify you through some holy words spoken by unholy men.
  11. Miracles, for all their wonder and encouragement, rely on the dazzling of our senses to work. Because miracle-faith produces sensory-faith, it is of a poor quality.
