The Miracles of Our Lord (3 Units)
What Can Jesus' Miracles Teach Us Today? It lies at the heart of our Christian faith—the profound but simple truth that the same power that can turn water into wine can also breathe life into a long-dead corpse. --------------- Charles C. Ryrie (A.B., Harverford College; Th.D., Dallas Theological Seminary; Ph.D., University of Edinburgh; Litt.D., Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary) is the annotator of the Ryrie Study Bible and author of many other best-selling books including The Basis of the Premillennial Faith, The Miracles of Our Lord, Balancing the Christian Life, Basic Theology, and So Great Salvation. Dr. Ryrie has served in numerous professional capacities including President of Philadelphia Biblical University, and Chairman and Professor of Systematic Theology at Dallas Theological Seminary.

If you plan to do a series on Christ's miracles, have this book on hand. – Back to the Bible Dr. Ryrie, in explaining the thirty-five recorded miracles of Christ, shows us more facets of the Person who performed them. His aim is not only to present the facts about each miracle, but to show what these facts tell us about the Lord. – Librarians World This book is an up-market introduction to the 35 miracles attributed to our Lord. It is fast-moving and keeps the reader on his toes as he comes face to face with each graphically portrayed incident. The explanations are rounded and Biblical and genuinely draw the reader's attention to focus on Christ. Well outlined, it would be a proverbial 'paradise' for preachers and Bible-Class teachers - but, having said that all will profit from persuing its pages. Why not treat yourself to a copy and feel the strings of the Spirit within as you realise afresh that He is a God of Miracles! – Rev. Samuel Gordon |
