Abstract

Jesus‘ miracles are a concept of the teachings of the New Testament, as they provide information about the relationship between God and his creation. But, how can this topic be conveyed to our youth in a time that is coined by science as much as ours? With the goal of motivating students to discuss this topic, Bible educational opportunities to properly convey the topic miracles in class 8 in a practical approach will be demonstrated in the following article.
