About this title

Synopsis

A clear, historically grounded look at how miracles relate to truth in Scripture and doctrine.

This volume surveys the role of miracles in confirming or contradicting doctrinal claims. It lays out several cases for how miraculous signs can affect our judgment of what is true, and what remains unknown even after a sign. The discussion moves from broad principles to concrete biblical examples, helping readers discern when a miracle strengthens belief and when it may not.

Readers will gain a framework for evaluating miraculous claims, along with lively illustrations from Scripture. The emphasis is on understanding the end and motive of miracles, and on how divine interposition interacts with human knowledge and belief.

• How miracles relate to doctrine and what they can prove about divine truth
• Different scenarios where miracles might confirm, doubt, or mislead
• Biblical examples from Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, Elisha, and others

Ideal for readers of historical theology and biblical interpretation seeking a careful standard for understanding miracles.
