During the video section Mart DeHaan interviewed people on the street in Tiberias. He asked them if they believed in miracles. He concluded: “I sensed in the residents of Tiberias that the ‘miracles’ they believed in would not have been as dramatic as someone turning water into wine or bringing a dead person back to life; yet according to the Gospelnarratives, Jesus displayed an authority and power over nature that had no natural explanation.” Do you agree with the responses of the people interviewed?

The people interviewed shared examples of things they felt were miracles they had experienced personally. They were certainly different than the miracles that took place during Jesus’ time.

I do not agree with those that were interviewed. A miracle is a happening beyond the laws of nature. I believe that Jesus did the miracles as stated in the word of God to prove he was the son of God.

[Austin]

I think their responses are linked to their faith. I disagree with them, that not everything is a miracle. I think God reveals himself through Creation and wonderful things we can experience, but miracles are something entirely different than the responses in the video.

[Austin]

No, because based on Mart DeHaan’s definition, their responses are not accurate. They were talking about everyday things that are amazing and wonderful, but they are not miracles based on this definition.

[Austin]

No i donot think they understand the teue concept of a miracle.
