Why do you believe?

[FutureAndAHope]

So basically, (as I suspected) all you're saying is that (for you) a miracle (or a supernatural occurrence) is just a highly improbable event. Is that correct?

You do know that there are numerous counter-examples to your rare occurrences, don't you? These claims are not consistent. Have you ever thought about talking to Christians who did the same thing (or something very similar) and got negative results? Why is it that you assumed the bible was the word of God? You do know that Muslims say this kind of thing as well, don't you?

For a start not all Christians have a close walk with God, God must allow a miracle. There are various miracles God has not allowed me to do in my life. You can't say just because not all Christians, can do what I do it is not God. I know a friend personally who has prayed for paralized people and seen them 100% healed. I have prayed for paralized people and not seen them healed. Although I have healed one woman instantly of a long term back problem. If you want to see scientifically documented cases of divine healing go to http://www.wcdn.org/wcdn_eng/case/divine_case_e.asp

As for Muslums doing the same thing, I have talked to Muslums for years and only ever heard one claim of the divine, and it was nothing amazing. But if you have evidence of such things I am interested to know. But as a Christian I know there is a devil, and he can do miracles as well. I just choose to believe God. Who would want to be a Muslum anyway the Koran says men can beat their own wives, and kill unbelievers, both things I am sure God has no pleasure in.
