Publisher's Synopsis
""Miracles of Our Lord"" is a collection of stories written by George MacDonald that retell some of the most well-known miracles of Jesus Christ. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on the miracles that are recorded in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, and the second part focusing on the parables of Jesus. MacDonald's retellings of these miracles are written in a simple and accessible style, making them ideal for readers of all ages. The stories are infused with a sense of wonder and reverence for the power of God, and they offer readers a deeper understanding of the teachings of Jesus Christ. Overall, ""Miracles of Our Lord"" is a timeless classic that continues to inspire and enlighten readers today.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.
