Miracles of Our Lord (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781169246645)

""Miracles of Our Lord"" is a collection of stories written by George MacDonald, a Scottish author and Christian minister. The book includes retellings of various miracles performed by Jesus Christ as recorded in the New Testament. MacDonald's writing style is characterized by a deep spiritual insight and a poetic language that adds a unique dimension to the stories. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on miracles performed in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke, and the second part focusing on miracles from the Gospel of John. MacDonald's retellings of these miracles aim to inspire readers to contemplate the deeper meanings behind them and to deepen their faith in Jesus Christ. The book is a classic work of Christian literature and has been widely read and cherished for over a century.But besides the fact that they have to do with what we call nature, they would form a class on another ground. In those cases of disease, the miracles are for the setting right of what has gone wrong, the restoration of the order of things, --namely, of the original condition of humanity. No doubt it is a law of nature that where there is sin there should be suffering; but even its cure helps to restore that righteousness which is highest nature; for the cure of suffering must not be confounded with the absence of suffering. But the miracles of which I have now to speak, show themselves as interfering with what we may call the righteous laws of nature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
