Laws Of Nature Northern Lights
1,116 words
In An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, Hume
emphasizes his belief that all knowledge is based
upon our own experience. The foundation of
Christianity is based on the testimony of the
Apostles, who supposedly witnessed the miracles of
the Savior, Jesus. Through these miracles the

backbone for Christianity was formed. The
testimony of the Apostles is not knowledge based
upon our own experience, but rather on the
experiences others claimed they ...

supernatural power. In other words they are
inexplicable in rational terms resulting in their
validity being hard to prov...

culture and the past. Some of these images are
very different, from a vengeful and unforgiving
God to a caring and loving God. Most of these
images have been passed down through time and
different sources such as the Bible. The first
image of God I have chosen to discuss is the
common image of God from the Old Testament as God
the creator. My first quote to support that image
is from Genesis 1: 1 - 2, In the beginning God

a miracle is. A miracle is hard to define,
especially today. Miracles are a rarity in todays
world. The technical definition of a miracle, is a

In a biblical sense, a miracle is a special act of
God in the world; a supernatural interference into
nature; a special divine interaction. As
Christians, the biblical definition is what we put
our faith in. Now we need to know the history of
