How does the preaching of the Gospel relate to miracles?
Answered in 1 source
The preaching of the Gospel is considered a miracle because it brings about spiritual transformation and salvation for those who believe.
In the realm of sovereign grace theology, the act of preaching the Gospel is itself regarded as a profound miracle, as it conveys the truth of Christ and the message of salvation. As stated in Luke 7:22, when Jesus emphasizes the preaching of the good news to the poor, He indicates that this declaration is transformative. The Gospel's power lies not in human eloquence but in the divine authority and work of the Holy Spirit. The very act of a sinner coming to faith, understanding, and responding to the Gospel is a miraculous event where God opens blind eyes and softens hardened hearts. Therefore, the Gospel's proclamation and the resulting faith of believers are intertwined with miracles, affirming God’s ongoing work in the world through His chosen instruments.
