Do you only believe the miracle claims from other Christians?
Or do you also believe miracle claims from Hindus, Muslims, Zoroastrians, etc?

Every logical argument for the existence of a god is logically invalid. They all contain at least one fallacy.
But even if there was a valid argument, they still have to be fed sound premiss.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
