Wednesday Night Class

Lesson 10 of 10 September 14, 2017

The class opened with a prayer of gratitude and a brief personal update before diving into the topic of miracles. The teacher recounted recent anecdotes—a football game’s improbable score and a veteran’s claim of an angelic visit—to illustrate how people often label extraordinary events as miracles. He clarified that, according to Scripture, miracles serve to confirm God’s Word rather than to provide personal comfort or spectacle, citing Mark 16:20 as a key passage. The discussion then shifted to discerning true miracles from unexplained but natural phenomena. Using Galatians 1:6‑9, the teacher warned against accepting new revelations or signs that lack biblical grounding. He affirmed that God remains active today, answering prayers and influencing circumstances, but emphasized that His activity is not limited to dramatic, supernatural displays. The class concluded that believers should focus on listening to God’s message, trusting His work in the ordinary, and avoiding the temptation to demand miracles as proof of faith.

Mark 16:20

And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs, it is miracles, with them.

Galatians 1:6-9
