Notes: Is it a Miracle, or is it Magic?

We hear about miracles and spiritual gifts, but how can we discern among real miracles of God, miracles, signs and wonders of the occult, and fake miracles via deceptions of men? Faith healers and spiritual healers draw multitudes with promises of miraculous healing and deliverance, and millions follow without understanding the dangers.

This engaging and insightful book provides a sound Biblical, historical and scientific analysis of miracles for a unique, comprehensive understanding of this controversial topic. A detailed Appendix is included with views on speaking in tongues and miraculous healing from key Christian leaders and denominations throughout church history. The book also offers practical advice and encouragement to keep one's spiritual journey on track, and is an essential guide to avoid spiritual deception.
