Laidlaw College was delighted to host New Testament scholar and author, Professor Craig Keener, at our Henderson campus in September 2019. During that time, he gave a public lecture on “The Plausibility of Miracles in a Materialistic Age”. He noted that a common reason for sceptics doubting the historical authenticity of the gospels is the presence of miracles. While writing a commentary on the Gospel of Mark, of which one-third contains miracle stories, a planned footnote on miracles turned into his book, Miracles: The Credibility of the New Testament Accounts (2011).
In his public lecture, Professor Keener noted that most modern prejudice against biblical miracle reports depends on David Hume’s argument that uniform human experience leads us to never expecting miracles. Keener looked at the question of whether there are some credible eyewitnesses for miracles today, and gave story after story of historical and current day miracles - many hand in hand with ground breaking evangelism throughout the world.
