Possibility of Miracles
An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding (LaSalle, III.: Open Court, 1966 [first published 1748]), p. 145.
[U]pon the whole, we may conclude that the Christian Religion not only
was at first attended with miracles, but even at this day cannot be
believed by any reasonable person without one.... Whoever is moved by
Faith to assent to it, is conscious of a continued miracle in his own
person, which subverts all the principles of his understanding, and
gives him a determination to believe what is most contrary to custom
and experience.
Kerygma and Myth, (New York: Harper and Row, 1961), p. 5.
It is impossible to use electrical light and the wireless and to avail
ourselves of modern medical and surgical discoveries, and at the same
time to believe in the New Testament world of spirits and miracles.
