If there's a God, there are miracles!
To recap, science points us to God. Belief in God is not anti-intellectual or anti-science. But what about belief in miracles? That must be anti-science, right? Take, for example, the claim on which Christianity rises or falls. Can someone who is intelligent and who believes in science also believe in the supernatural, bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ?
Consider the words of Christian Apologist Norman Geisler, “In point of fact, if there is a God who can act (viz., a theistic God), then acts of God (i.e., .miracles) are automatically possible.”
In the case of Jesus’ resurrection, we must consider the historical evidence, and the historical evidence for the resurrection is as good as for almost any event of ancient history. For one example of many, think about the claim of Paul in 1 Corinthians 15:6. Concerning this claim, Josh McDowell, co-author of Evidence that Demands a Verdict, said, “Paul the apostle recounted that Jesus appeared to more than 500 of His followers at one time, most of whom were still alive and who could confirm what Paul wrote.” Anyone telling a lie would not appeal to almost five hundred witnesses!
Reading further in 1 Corinthians 15 also causes us to consider the consequences of the resurrection not being true. According to Paul, without the resurrection, faith is futile, there is no forgiveness of sins (Verse 17), and there’s no hope for life after death (Verse 18). In other words, if there’s no such thing as miracles, if there’s no such thing as the resurrection of Jesus (or us), then there’s no hope past this life. So much is riding on the resurrection, it would be wise to examine the evidence before giving up hope.
Ask Yourself: Have I rejected the resurrection of Jesus without taking time to consider the evidence?
Pause to Pray: Use Psalm 77:1 to lead you into a prayer of praise- “You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples.”
Take a Next Step: Take time to investigate the resurrection by searching “Why should I believe in Christ’s resurrection?” and examining the evidence.
