The Miracles of Jesus

The Gospels record Jesus healing the sick, feeding thousands, calming a storm, and raising the dead. Christians understand these not as mere wonders but as signs, previews of the Kingdom of God breaking into the world, and evidence of Jesus’ identity and compassion. Remarkably, even the Qur’an affirms that Jesus healed and raised the dead by God’s permission.

What the Gospels record

“The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them.”

Matthew 11:5

“And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.”

Mark 4:39

“And many other signs truly did Jesus... But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God.”

John 20:30-31

Signs, not just wonders

John calls the miracles ‘signs’, they point beyond themselves to who Jesus is and to the Kingdom he brings, where the sick are healed, the hungry fed, and death itself undone. They are acts of compassion as much as power.
