An interesting collection of events from Richard’s Watch.
The Sunday evening before last we heard how God miraculously provided about 1,300 large bread cakes from only 200 that pastor Christopher Bird had taken to a Ugandan orphanage, but to which 500 children had walked for hours for food to feed them over the week! Next he took the left-overs to other places and watched everyone getting fed from what he’d originally brought. Only 7 loaves were left, which were for the 7 servers.
ELECTRO-MECHANICAL MIRACLE
Next, a group told him on a Sunday morning they’d take him Monday to a neighbouring nation – but he needed to apply for an entry visa. So he had to get two visa-size photos on a Sunday afternoon in Kampala – but there was a city-wide power blackout!
He saw a 50-years old photo-booth on a pavement and spoke to its attendant who said it was unplugged because of the outage. Chris…

All Along the Watchtower 
The sharing of loaves is something that Bergoglio has reduced to the miracle of sharing which I wrote about many years ago here: https://catholicnewsreport.com/2012/07/25/silly-sunday-sermon/

While sharing is one form of charity, we should not confuse that with actual miracles. I fear for this materialist generation – the revelation of the supernatural world will be a shock to them.

Indeed so. I think the comments to my original post show how shocked people were that some were preaching such foolishness because they never heard it themselves. Now we have a Pope who preaches this to the world. Can we all say that we are in a downward spiral now?

Pastor Chris was extremely surprised to be challenged by the orphanage leader to pray for more bread because he confessed to not having the faith for it. Then he recalled the Gospel account of Jesus giving thanks FIRST, and so he did the same. Then came the faith and God ‘s provision, as when it happened with Jesus.

This reminds me of George Mueller, who operated orphanages in Bristol in the 19th century.

Nice story, but as with many miracles there is fabrication. This story is pure fiction.

Were you there? Are you an eyewitness to the fabrication, then? Or do you simply discount anything that science cannot explain like the growing of a bladder within a girl whose bladder had been surgically removed . . . attested to by medical records? Vera Marie Calandra is her name if you want to look up her story.

Some people also get three sets of teeth and grow tails. My brother keeps getting chicken pox even though he has immunity. Some people grow new appendixes after removal too. No, I wasn’t there, but I’ll bet there is a good explanation. The bladder already has many regenerative properties. This isn’t even a mystery.

The miracle in some far off country?

Why would I need to believe anything. I gave you a viable explanation. People possess genetic traits and holdovers we share with a lot of creatures. Miracles can only exist without other rational explanations. That’s why there are so few canonized miracles in the church. But there are explanations for those as well.

You know when they dona liver transplant, they only need part of it. Then the rest regenerates. Weird, but not a miracle. Deer antlers, that’s the real miracle. How do they turn them off?

So Jim, in view of your great learning and extensive experience, you’ve decided to call a Holy Spirit-filled pastor whom we’ve known personally for years, a downright liar?
Same for me too, as I’m no longer a 24/7 carer for my wheelchair-bound wife who was officially registered ‘permanently disabled’ but healed by God’s touch to be able to get up, walk and dance for Him?? (Fully documented case and investigated by a journalist for the purpose of exposing a hoax – but his editor wouldn’t publish a true report!)
You’re like someone born blind who tells sighted people they’re lying about seeing colours, clouds, moon etc. It’s a shame atheist’s prefer to toe satan’s lies and not their saviour’s truth. To be blunt, it’s self-harming, and so I pray you too have a life-changing encounter with Him. And life’s far too short for me to take up any more precious time on this…love in Jesus, from Richard.

Not at all calling him a liar Richard. If your looking for a miracle, you’ll find one. If you seek a non supernatural explanation, you’ll find one. Here’s what happens with zealous belief—god gets credit when people actually deserve it. They overcounted the loaves or undercounted the children (or both) The photo attendant has no idea the machine is a color booth, and organs regenerate occasionally. It’s not really miracle worthy there boss. The real miracle is simply people helping people.

I see my first comment conveniently disappeared as well. Why is that?
