Question

worldwide christians have seen and have proof of miracles of healing,sightings of mary and healing of believers.why don't other religions have the same

Answer 1

Hi, I'm a Christian, and I know God does do miracles. However, you do also have to be careful, because it's not just God who does supernatural things - even in the bible, there are examples... In the account of Moses, the Pharoah's magicians copied some of the miracles God did through Moses (Exodus 7 v 11 and 22, 8 v 7), although obviously, they didn't have the same amount of power that God has, and couldn't copy everything (Exodus 8 v 18).

In the new testament, Jesus also warns us: (Mark 13 v 22-23) "For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform signs and miracles to deceive the elect - if that were possible. So be on your guard; I have told you everything ahead of time."

There are also examples of witches and sorcerors in the bible.

God does do miracles though, I know of ppl He's healed of paralysis, a mute girl who started talking, and many other cases... Don't stop praying!!!

Answer 2

They do. But I'm inclined to side with David Hume when it comes to miracles:

"The plain consequence is (and it is a general maxim worthy of our attention), "that no testimony is sufficient to establish a miracle, unless the testimony be of such a kind, that its falsehood would be more miraculous, than the fact, which it endeavors to establish; and even in that case there is a mutual destruction of arguments, and the superior only gives us an assurance suitable to that degree of force, which remains, after deducting the inferior." When anyone tells me, that he saw a dead man restored to life, I immediately consider with myself, whether it be more probable, that this person should either deceive or be deceived, or that the fact, which he relates, should really have happened. I weigh the one miracle against the other; and according to the superiority, which I discover, I pronounce my decision, and always reject the greater miracle. If the falsehood of his testimony would be more miraculous, than the event which he relates; then, and not till then, can he pretend to command my belief or opinion."

Answer 3

All religions have miracles recorded in their books.

For Jews - they use the old testament (more or less) and so do the Muslims so they all have the same earlier miracles.

The Greek and Roman religions had all sorts - Zeus turning into a swan and gold - usually to get his own way but he was just more fun.

Answer 4

If you can't prove the existance of a god, how can you decide that some freak event is a miracle given to you by a god?

Complete TOSH!

Next you'll be claiming that the bible is the word of god, not just a collection of stories used by the powerful to control the masses.

Answer 5

Because Christians believe in God which is the only true place that miracles come from.

Answer 6

Not every Christian is a Catholic. Not that there's anything wrong with Catholicism, but all of those miracles you mentioned fall into the Catholic denomination.

Answer 7

Because their gods are made of iron, and wood, and marble, and bronze, and have eyes but cannot see, and ears but cannot hear...the Bible puts it beter, but it really it is truth. There is a reason that 6 million Africans convert from Islam to Christianity every year...

Answer 8

they all claim to have miracles. you haven't heard of them because you haven't bothered to find out about them, and yes, they claim to have seen them and have proof of them.

Answer 9

because it was a true religion, God has reveal himself through his incarnated son Jesus Christ. that is why Mother mary reveal the three secret in Fatima to Christian and not towards other religion

Answer 10

Maybe--------they are not so easily conned?
