The naturalness of miracles

CLAIRE ROSELIUS

We read of wonderful miracles in the Old Testament as well as in the New. Moses, Elisha, and other prophets most likely perceived that these phenomena were based on law, but they left the matter at this perception. Christianity, as Jesus taught it, reveals this law. The Master's own virgin birth presented a miracle to mankind. This can be appreciated only by understanding divine law.

Jesus, beyond all others, knew and understood the divine law. He expressed inexhaustible love in making clear to suffering humanity that so-called miracles are in truth the completely natural effects of the application of divine Principle. This Principle, comprehensible to all, bears witness to Christian healing power. Christ Jesus stood before humanity with the powerful statement "He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father."^{John 14:12.}

How can we accomplish such works?
