The earliest Christian documents were the Pauline and pseudo-Pauline epistles. They don't mention a single miracle Jesus did except for the resurrection. That puts Jesus on par with the countless other gods that resurrected prior to him. Not very impressive!
Why is it that the earliest christian documents are not considered canonical anyway? Jesus didn't do enough miracles in them? I mean, Mohammed not performing miracles is being used against him, so maybe they tossed out the only partly inaccurate texts in favor of fully edited ones.
