Discuss the importance of the healing miracles of Jesus for Christian lives today.

 Christians see these miracles and believe that they could happen to them if they have faith because these miracles are so great and unimaginable. Christians may turn to Jesus when they are ill and there is no cure, such as a cancer and they have nothing left to turn to. So they put their faith in God, by themselves and their families praying. It has been known for them to be cured because they have great faith in the Kingdom of god, this is what many people would call a healing miracle. We can know about Jesus healing miracles from Luke’s gospel, the blind beggar (18:35-43) This story happened in Jesus’ time on earth, yet healing miracles have been herd of which are similar even today.
I think that the most important fact of Jesus’ miracles is that no one has ever, or can ever perform his healing miracles. We some times come to believe that a magician may perform a miracle using his magic by pulling a rabbit out of his hat, however in reality there so-called ‘miracles’ are just tricks made to astound us to trick our eyes into believing that it was a miracle. No one can perform a miracle, only Jesus. I think this fact leads Christians into greater faith.

 Jesus performed many miracles on his time on earth to make people notice and remember him and to show his identity as the messiah and the Son of God and to make us have great faith in God. Also I believe he performed miracles for those in the future, like us. The people who saw and heard of Jesus’ healing miracles would write about them, they would have been talked a lot about from town to town in Jesus’ time, this helped the amazing stories of Jesus’ healing miracles travel. Many people wrote about him, this includes Luke. Luke saw that Jesus was the Messiah and wanted people to know about the good news. The healing miracles would go down in history so that we can learn about Jesus and the Kingdom of God in the bible so we can also have faith in him and believe that he can still perform miracles for his children on earth.
