How many miracles did Jesus Christ perform in the bible?

35 miracles that's wrong in the bible there is 37 recorded miracles, but it also says "And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which if they were written one by one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written. Amen." (John 21:25, NKJV)


Did Jesus really perform miracles Give reasons for and against?

By faith I believe he did. Just as by faith, I believe that he rose from the dead to defeat death to promise all God's children eternal life. Read the four gospels, Mathew,Mark,Luke, and/or John.


How many miracles are there?

Jesus did many miracles in the bible, like turning water into wine and raising lazerus from the dead. the apostles did many miracles too, but the bible doesn't record all of the miracles that happened back then. in John 21:25, it says, "And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which if they were written one by one, i suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written. Amen." we can't do miracles now a days, because Jesus and the apostles aren't alive any more, but we can know that there were so many miracles that jesus and the apostles did, that even the world couldn't contain all the stories of them.


Was Paul or any of the authors of the four gospels an eyewitness to Jesus' miracles?

It is undisputed that Paul was not an eyewitness to the miracles that are recorded in the four gospels. Christian tradition hold that the Gospels according to Matthew, Mark and John were written by disciples of that name, who were eyewitnesses to some of the miracles that they reported. Since Christian tradition hold that Luke's Gospel was written by a young companion of Paul, then the author of this gospel was clearly not an eyewitness of the miracles. Matthew's Gospel was written in Greek and clearly used Mark's Gospel as its main source for the life of Jesus, as did Luke's Gospel. This can be shown because whenever Matthew and Luke agree with Mark, the Greek words are almost identical, something that could not have occurred if Matthew was relying on personal memory. Whenever Matthew and Luke agree on sayings of Jesus, that are not in Mark's Gospel, they use identical words for the sayings, but place them in different contexts and even different times of the ministry of Jesus. Scholars say they must have used as their sources a common document of sayings attributed to Jesus, a document now known as the Q Document, and created plausible contexts in which Jesus could have spoken those sayings. The fact that Matthew, as well as Luke, relied so heavily on Mark and the Q Document means that this author could not have been an eye-witness to the miracles. John's Gospel was also written in Greek and shows evidence of borrowing much of its material from Luke's Gospel. Once again, this author could not have been an eye-witness to the miracles. Only the author of Mark's Gospel could have been an eye-witness to the miracles, but much evidence internal to this gospel indicates that he was really writing a second-hand account. In summary, none of these authors was an eye-witness to the miracles.

How was saint peter like Jesus?

A:Acording to Acts of the Apostles, Peter could perform the same miracles as Jesus had done, even raising Tabitha from the dead. Just as Jesus could perform involuntary miracles, such as when the woman with the issue of blood touched his hem and was cured, so also people brought the sick just in the hope that Peter's shadow would pass over them and they would be cured.One view of Acts would be that it is an extreme form of hagiography in the way it portrays the apostles, especially Peter and Paul, as being able to perform miracles at will. New Testament scholars say that Acts of the Apostles is a book of miracles rather than of history. Uta Ranke-Heinemann (Putting Away Childish Things) goes as far as to say that the whole of Acts is a simply a work of Propaganda. On this view, Saint Peter did not perform any miracles at all. This brings Peter back to the ranks of ordinary humans, unlike Jesus in the gospels.
