Miracles in Acts

Explanation
Following in the footsteps of the Master, the apostles of Jesus performed many miracles
as they took the gospel out into the world. These wonders included healing the lame, casting
out evil spirits, escaping from captivity, restoring sight to the blind, raising the dead, and
stopping the discharge of blood. The fact that these miracles were so similar to those
performed by Jesus Christ demonstrated to the world that these disciples came endowed
with his divine powers. The reactions of people were also similar: the Chief Priests continued
to doubt, while others attributed these miracles to God, believed, and were baptized in the
name of Jesus.
