Miraculous timing

Those who question the exclusive claims of Christianity may want to consider the odds of the Jewish leaders precipitating the execution of Jesus at the Passover - a Jewish holy day commemorating a historical event that clearly typifies the death of "the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sins of the world." (John 1:29) Then they may want to also consider the odds of Jesus' disciples first experiencing the baptism and transforming power of the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost - a Jewish feast commemorating the giving of the ten commandments. The perfect timing of these two watershed historical events with their foreshadowing types are indisputable facts, and provides powerful evidence of the miraculous nature of these events.

The Reversing of Niagara Falls

"The Lord knows right well that you cannot change your own heart, and cannot cleanse your own nature; but He also knows that He can do both . . . Hear this, and be astonished: He can create you a second time; He can cause you to be born again. This is a miracle of grace, but the Holy Ghost will perform it. It would be a very wonderful thing if one could stand at the foot of the Niagara Falls, and could speak a word which should make the river Niagara begin to run up stream, and leap up that great precipice over which it now rolls in stupendous force. Nothing but the power of God could achieve that marvel; but that would be more than a fit parallel to what would take place if the course of your nature were altogether reversed. All things are possible with God. He can reverse the direction of your desires and the current of your life, and instead of going downward from God, He can make your whole being tend upward toward God."
- Charles H. Spurgeon
