I am interested in the miracles that it is said Jesus preformed in the Bible. Are their any sources outside the Bible that I can compare it to? Or are their any people alive today that claim descended from the original witnesses of Jesus miracles that have an oral tradition of what they saw.
Ps please dont quote Josephus that because that source has been seriously discredited

Quran cannot be used as a seprate source because it was written 700 years after the fact.

Im guessing this is a joke, right? You dont really expect to get any sources OUTSIDE The Bible, do you?? I gave you a thumbs up rating for recognizing that Josephus' writings are seriously biased and have been discredited......
But I dont think youre gonna get an answer on this one....

That is a very hard thing to find, some of the miracles performed in the bible were stories and just that, their purpose was tot each a lesson nothing more. When Jesus walked upon the water it was to show that you need to be strong in your faith for it will support you in perilous times.

There are no sources outside the bible. The bible is the only source for Christians.

Jesus still performs miracles today, He does it through the Holy Spirit using chosen people...and lots of witnesses could come up to shout it out loud for God;s glory...!!!
Praise the Lord!!!

The only other source apart from the bible that talks truth and correct about Jesus and his mom Virgin Mary is the holy Qoran ..the book of Islam....buy a copy translated to english and read about Jesus miracles and how is he respected in our holy book(as a prophet ofcourse...not son of God,because we beleive that God is unique and one ..has no son ..no division ).It is written in the Holy Qoran that Jesus(peace be upon him)..made the blind see(by the permission of God).....and raised the dead(by the permission of God)....and told people what they r storing in their houses(by the permission of God).And that he talked to the jews while he was a baby in his craddle.So,..I advice u to purchase a Qoran translated to english(and see especially the "soorat Mariam".....a complete chapter in the Holy Qoran just about Virgin Mary "mariam in arabic" and prophet jesus.

No. His Jewish students were bad Jews. They hated Judiasm and began a new religion believing in Jesus Christ. I don't believe in him 'cause I am a (Modern Orthodox) Jew.

Isn't it amazing how his "miracles" correspond almost exactly to our morning prayer? Surely that's related to some kind of prophesy... LOL
