Historical miraculous events. (Matthew 9 v 1-8)

My wife and I are holidaying in the island of Malta,so I am doing this blog from the hotel we are staying in.So far the internet is working,I am praying it will continue to work while we are here . In the northern region of Malta there is a bay called St Paul;s bay, it gets it's name from that moment when the ship that was carrying  Paul  to Rome to stand trial before Caesar was shipwrecked on the island of Melita,now known as Malta ,read about it in Acts 27-28. Two  miraculous things happened while Paul was on the Island,he was bitten by a venomous serpent and he surviived,there were those who thought he was going  to die,Next  he healed the chief man of the islands father,we read that Paul prayed for this man and laid hands on him and he was healed.These two things  really happened,they are historical events ,we should make much of the fact that the Bible is a historical book, not a book of mythology in other words made up stories.Moses was real the miracles recorded during his life really happened.Jesus was a real person,born of a virgin,miraculously performed miracles, died and rose from the dead, are true historical facts,I make no apologies for declaring that. One of the most miraculous things he ever did was to die on a cross that our sins could be forgiven. 

                                                  'It took a mircle to put the stars in place,

                                                   It took a miracle to hang the world in space,

                                                   But when He saved my soul ,

                                                    Cleansed and made me whole,

                                                    It took a miacle of love and grace.
