Yeah, I'll write on that this week.
How does a Bible teacher not quote the Bible? Where in the Bible does it tell us about these things? How does the distinction between providence and miracles matter or make a difference in the life of a Christian?
Good questions. Above I use three Bible stories--the water to blood, the light sound that confused, and the angel who killed. At what point is one a miracle and the other "providence." Some argue for a difference b/c they want to argue that the gift of miracles is for today, so they have to show how it is distinct from providence. but I don't buy that distinction. Hope that helps.
"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." Romans 8:28 It's such a comfort to know that the "all things" in this verse truly is "all things" and God has control over everything!
I can't even comprehend the phrase "if only Americans [or anyone at all!] expected more from God."
