Gordon: are miracles unnatural?

Tuesday, November 11, 2014
    Feast of Martin, Monk, Bishop of Tours, 397
Meditation:
    When evening came, many who were demon-possessed were brought to [Jesus], and he drove out the spirits with a word and healed all the sick.
    —Matthew 8:16 (NIV)
Quotation:
    Miracles of healing and dispossession are reminiscences of an unfallen Paradise and prophecies of a Paradise regained. Though we call them supernatural, they are not contranatural.
    ... A. J. Gordon (1836-1895), The Ministry of Healing, Boston: H. Gannett, 1883, p. 44 (see the book)
    See also Matt. 8:16; 9:20-22; 12:43-45; Luke 8:28; Jas. 2:19
Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, there is more in Your creation than we know.
