How Anglicans and Pentecostals view Miracles

Anglican View on Miracles:

1. Authority of Scripture: Anglicans believe in the authority of Scripture as the ultimate source of truth and guidance. They view miracles as events that occurred in the past and are recorded in the Bible.

2. Cessationism: Many Anglicans are cessationists, meaning they believe that miracles ceased after the time of the early Church and are not actively occurring today.

3. Skepticism: Some Anglicans are skeptical of the modern-day claims of miracles and prefer to focus on the spiritual benefits of prayer and worship.

Pentecostal View on Miracles:

1. Continuationism: Pentecostals believe in continuationism, meaning they believe that miracles and other supernatural acts of God are still occurring today. They point to examples of healings, speaking in tongues, and other miraculous experiences as evidence of God’s ongoing presence and power.

2. Holy Spirit: Pentecostals emphasize the role of the Holy Spirit in miracles and supernatural experiences. They view the Holy Spirit as essential to the Christian life and believe that the Holy Spirit can work in miraculous ways to heal and transform people’s lives.

3. Faith: Pentecostals believe that miracles often occur as a result of faith and prayer. They view miracles as a tangible expression of God’s love and compassion for his people, and encourage believers to have faith that God can work miracles in their lives.

Bible Verses About Miracles

However, I can provide some Bible verses for reference that talk about miracles:

John 2:11: “What Jesus did here in Cana of Galilee was the first of the signs through which he revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.”

Matthew 14:25-31: “Shortly before dawn Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake. When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. ‘It’s a ghost,’ they said, and cried out in fear. But Jesus immediately said to them: ‘Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.’ ‘Lord, if it’s you,’ Peter replied, ‘tell me to come to you on the water.’ ‘Come,’ he said. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, ‘Lord, save me!’ Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. ‘You of little faith,’ he said, ‘why did you doubt?’”

Acts 3:6-8: “Then Peter said, ‘Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.’ Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man’s feet and ankles became strong. He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God.”

Matthew 9:27-30: “As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed him, calling out, ‘Have mercy on us, Son of David!’ When he had gone indoors, the blind men came to him, and he asked them, ‘Do you believe that I am able to do this?’ ‘Yes, Lord,’ they replied. Then he touched their eyes and said, ‘According to your faith let it be done to you’; and their sight was restored.”

Mark 5:34: “He said to her, ‘Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.’”

John 9:1-7: “As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth. His disciples asked him, ‘Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?’ ‘Neither this man nor his parents sinned,’ said Jesus, ‘but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him. As long as it is day, we must do the works of him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work. While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.’ After saying this, he spit on the ground, made some mud with the saliva, and put it on the man’s eyes. ‘Go,’ he told him, ‘wash in the Pool of Siloam’ (this word means “Sent”). So the man went and washed, and came home seeing.”
