The Final part in this series of 3 is in regard to how Jesus responded to both the crowds and to the disciples. He displayed 5 characteristics which are also fully credible regarding Jesus life.

They are 1/ His knowledge for the people. 2/ His concern for the people. 3/ His authority over the people. 4/ His generosity towards the people. 5/ His freedom from the people.

I then look at these miraculous events and the effect it has on our lives and our response to Jesus. May God bless you as you as you listen to this message. Pastor John

Today we look at the credibility of the stories by looking at the reported responses of the disciples and crowds, that is the people that witnessed these miracles. I wanted to do this as people find it incredibly difficult to wrap their heads around these miracles and just dismiss them as fables. However In every way they responded is the way that we would have responded. It makes them valid events. It clearly shows that the reports given were done so by eye witnesses. God bless you as you listen to this today.

Before we get to these 2 specific miracles I look at miracles in general and particularly healing miracles even though they aren't part of these 2 miracles. I want to start here as an introduction to these 21 verses. I trust you will be challenged and inspired. God Bless. Pastor John
