The Divine Miracle

Reflecting the optimism of his time, Elder Moyle approached everything on a grand scale, including a spend-now, pay-later policy that brought the church near bankruptcy. Ultimately his utopian views proved unfeasible, but his can-do spirit and aggressiveness instilled pride among church members around the world and demonstrated his indomitable confidence and faith in the future.

A study of some of the most famous accepted miracles from biblical times to the present.

The Divine MIracle is a science fiction fantasy partially based on 2 movies and a tv comedy show. The rest of the book comes from the active imagination of the author. The author had ideas for the novel for years but decided to put his ideas on paper after the death of an uncle in 2007. The Divine Miracle has many elements including comedy, drama, action and adventure. This is the first book in a four part series. Tevin Evans is an ordinary 12 year old African-American boy living in Indiana in the year 1983. He attends an predominately white elementary school and he is the only black boy and no girls will really talk to him or even consider being his girlfriend. But that changes when he is struck down and nearly killed by a supernautural event on the playground. Several months later girls everywhere are fighting for his attention after he gains the ability to fly like a bird without wings. His whole body later changes down to the subatomic level and then other boys start coming after him for affection as well as girls. Tevin is confused by all the attention and the changes his body went through but he eventually understands. An youthfull looking adult Tevin living in the late twenty-first century tells the story of how his whole life changed and made him a trans-gendered superhero and gave him superhuman children from his marrage to a man.

The book of Isaiah places a distinctive emphasis on the miraculous. It speaks about the miraculous more than any other book of Scripture. Because miracle runs through the whole of the prophecy, careful attention to it, as John Goldingay gives it here, not only unfolds the message of Isaiah but allows the theme to become a detailed commentary on the God of miracles. Miracle is a tricky word, so Goldingay defines what is meant by the miraculous in Isaiah before considering the miraculous features throughout the book: in testimonies to Yahweh's extraordinary communication with people such as prophets, in reminders of Yahweh's extraordinary acts long ago, in reports of the extraordinary acts whereby Yahweh rescues his people within the book's temporal framework, in promises of Yahweh's extraordinary acts of restoration in the future, and in Yahweh's extraordinary acts toward other peoples. What of the miracles of long ago? Did God create the world, devastate it and then start it off again, summon Abraham, deliver Israel from Egypt, drown the Egyptian army in the Red Sea, take the Israelites through the wilderness, dispossess the Canaanites, defeat the Midianites? What about the miracles that come after, including those witnessed in the New Testament--especially the raising of Jesus from the grave? Goldingay points to the interweaving of miracle with narrative in Isaiah itself to provide a clue: these are stories about real events which, with the help of the Spirit of God, have become narratives that captivate and edify.

Among the stirring, illogical episodes described here: a band of desperate religious refugees find themselves blown hopelessly off course, only to be deposited at the one spot on a wild continent best suited for their survival; George Washington's beaten army, surrounded by a ruthless foe and on the verge of annihilation, manages an impossible escape due to a freakish change in the weather; a famous conqueror known for seizing territory, frustrated by a slave rebellion and a frozen harbor, impulsively hands Thomas Jefferson a tract of land that doubles the size of the United States; a weary soldier picks up three cigars left behind in an open field and notices the stogies have been wrapped in a handwritten description of the enemy's secret battle plans--a revelation that gives Lincoln the supernatural sign he's awaited in order to free the slaves.
