  1. Thanks for all the replies. I apologise if my comments are shallow or very basic for some of you but I just want to try and find where Jesus fits in my life and if I believe he performed miracles or not. Is Jesus a human who was at one with God or is he God in human form? I also wonder why did the writers of the gospels say that Jesus performed miracles if he didn't? What would be the meaning of this and is this something that is common for the time? Again I apologise but I would just love to learn and understand more. I realise I wont get a definitive answer but with more understanding I may be able to see where Jesus fits for me. Please feel free to move this topic to the debates section as it is broad but I just want to learn.

  3. Hi everyone, I know this is not an introduction section but I just wanted to say that my name is Brad and I live in Bendigo, Victoria, Australia. I attend Quaker meetings which are fantastic for silent worship but I would love to start chatting with you all about miracles and where they sit for you. I am trying to work with where they sit for me. Did the miracles written about Jesus in the Bible actually happen at all? Did some happen but maybe not others? I don't know where to go with this. Please allow me to think aloud for a minute and share the 2 thoughts that I have: * Miracles did happen and then I wonder why they can happen for some and not others and it doesnt seem like a fair system. For example if God cures 1 person from cancer but not another. * The miracles didn't happen at all.Then I wonder why are they in the bible and what are their significance? I believe in a historical Jesus no doubt but I am trying to get my balance between heart and head in regards to miracles. Are there any books where people have really study and analyzed the miracles attributed in the Bible? I really look forward to your comments and I hope to have some good positive discussion. Thanks for your help!
