The Miracles of Jesus

In this article you will find a complete list by which all the miracles of Jesus in the four gospels are recorded.

A miracle of God is an extraordinary or atypical event that reveals or confirms a specific message through a powerful work. Jesus performed many miracles. All the miracles he performed were to honor God, help others, and show that he really was who he claimed to be, the Son of God. For example, when the storm subsided in Matthew 8, the disciples were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this that even the wind and the sea obey him?” (verse 27).

The Gospels tell of many of the miracles that Jesus performed. Of course, many of the things that Jesus did were not all fully written in the Bible. John openly acknowledges: “Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book … And there are also many other things that Jesus did, as if they were written one by one, I do not believe that even the world will fit the books that are going to be written ”(John 20:30 and 21:25).

Different gospels often record the same miracles, each giving slightly different details and messages. Sometimes it is impossible to know if a particular miracle recorded in the Gospels is simply one miracle recorded from different angles or if two separate miracles are recorded. None of the gospel writers are particularly concerned with strict chronology, and sometimes they don’t give us all the details that interest us.

The miracles that Jesus performed and listed below have been classified into broad categories with similar references without attempting to determine which miracles have been recorded multiple times and which may be unique to each of the gospels:

From the above list, we see that the vast totality of the official wonders in the gospels were miracles of healing. Although those who have received healing have been relieved of their physical ailments, the stated purpose of miracles is seldom the mere relief of physical suffering. The miracle of healing always points to a greater truth, which is that Jesus is the Son of God in all authority. When he casts out demons, he increases his authority over them. When you heal on the Sabbath, you demonstrate your authority as Lord of the Sabbath. Likewise, many miracles emphasize the authority of Jesus Christ over nature.

There is no better way to analyze the miracles of Christ than by reading the Gospels, listing each miracle and the interpretation conveyed. (For example, in John 2 we read that Jesus Christ turned water into wine. This wonder alleviated the host’s potential embarrassment and reassured his mother, who asked him to get involved, but the main achievement is recorded in verse 11: “This Messiah did the beginning of the signs in Cana of Galilee and revealed his glory; and his apostles believed with great faith in him. “) Sometimes the goal of a miracle is stated bluntly and sometimes recorded in the response of those who saw him Nazarene did no miracles at all Every miracle pointed to a greater veracity John emphasized this point by referring to the wonders of the Redeemer as “signs.”

Feeding the 5,000 is just one example. John 6 begins by saying that the people followed Jesus because they saw the signs. You would think this is a good thing. Jesus begins to feed the crowd, more than 5,000 men, women, and children, with just five loaves and two fish. Then it disappeared into the night.

The next morning, people went looking for him. Jesus Christ, however, is not impressed and refutes his selfish motives to seek him: “Truly, truly, I tell you that you are looking for me, not because you have seen the signs, but because you have eaten the bread and you are joyful. . “(John 6:26). There is reluctance here. They were looking for Jesus Christ because they were given a free provision as a completion of a miracle. They probably thought it was a good elaboration. If Lord continued to feed them, all Jesus Christ, however, said that indeed they did not see the “sign.” They saw the amazement, yet they could not present themselves beyond the sustenance and the fish. The signs “that Jesus Christ performed signify magnificent greatness. Although the crowds saw and participated in the wonder, they did not see the sign that pointed to Lord,
