There is also evidence
concerning Christian miracles from more recent times. Well-documented miracle
accounts can be found in the following biography of the Lutheran pastor and
theologian Johann Christoph Blumhardt:

In the following excerpt from
another biography of Blumhardt, written by his friend Friedrich Zündel
(1827-1891), we find a description of the miraculous events surrounding

I read through most of the book - I just find it so hard not to bring every bit of skepticism to bear on the claims of the miraculous it presents. Maybe it's the present materialist zeitgeist, maybe it's the false claims that flow like water from folks like Todd Bentley and Benny Hinn, but there you go. What's your position on this kind of thing, Mr. Hays?
ReplyDeleteI don't see that the existence of charlatans casts doubt on the existence of genuine miracles in the modern world.
