about Jesus’ miracles at all stages of His ministry? What did the miracles of Jesus sometimes reveal about the disciples?” At first glance‚ my first thought was centered on one word “faith”. However‚ upon further investigation of the scriptures‚ it was revealed that out “of the 35 miracles recorded in the Gospel accounts the faith of the recipients is exercise in only 10 of the accounts” (Oppenheimer‚ 2009‚ p. 1).

The Resurrection of Jesus Christ No other event in history has been the object of as much scrutiny and criticism as the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The resurrection of Christ is the basis upon which all Christianity stands.
