Tried to video it but as usual, something went wrong and i only got the last 20 minutes!<BR/><BR/>I was disappointed when the programme didn't look into the present day Church!<BR/><BR/>For a programme called The Miracles of Jesus, you'd have thought there might be something in there about all the countless miracles taking place in our world in this present day. <BR/>Jesus is alive and He is still at work performing miracles in and through His followers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9987513.post-1156981465478229252006-08-31T00:44:00.000+01:002006-08-31T00:44:00.000+01:00I thought the visual effects were rather annoying,...I thought the visual effects were rather annoying, getting in the way of the point. Surely no one watches something called "The Miracles of Jesus" for the special effects?<BR/><BR/>As usual, I thought your review was very good. I was actually mildly disappointed that the conclusion of episode 2 was that Jesus considered himself divine, since AFAIK Muslims don't generally believe that, and it would have been interesting to present the argument that he didn't.Helen Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07600284354557428351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9987513.post-1156485609462847842006-08-25T07:00:00.000+01:002006-08-25T07:00:00.000+01:00The appropriate bit of C.

It's like the story of the Golden Calf: not only was it destroyed, but Moses had it powdered, dissolved in water, and he then forced the idolators to drink it.<BR/><BR/>I know the story doesn't sound very Christian this way, but would you necessarily expect it to?<BR/><BR/>P.S.
