There
are those (and I put myself into this category during my weaker moments) who
seem to believe that all they would need in order to be unshakably converted to
the Gospel would be to see miracles (or more miracles). Of course, that is not true at all – we can
see evidence of that scripturally (Laman saw an angel, and where did that get
him?) or anecdotally from my life (I have seen miracles that lack any
naturalistic explanation, and yet I nearly lost my testimony at one point).
In this
chapter, we see another example of that principle. People who once believed were regressing into
unbelief despite continued and more miracles.
Miracles can bless our lives, and they can teach us important truths,
but they are not something that can convert us.
Only turning our wills over to God can accomplish that.
