"Father, save me from this hour" - Spiritual Facts or Material Tricks



 Around Tokyo 

Spiritual Facts or Material Tricks 

Miracles and super-natural phenomena can be taken as they have been simply and mystically caused by some unknown forces or can be explained as they have been artfully or cleverly caused or they have happened by chance as rare cases in the nature or in very small probabilities.   

Miracles caused by Christ Jesus can be explained in both ways.

Every miracle Christ Jesus had caused can be explained as He had exercised His superpower or in other ways. 

For example, Christ Jesus found where a pot with water in and another with good wine in.  He somewhat forced a servant to bring the pot with good wine in to a table instead of the pot with water in.  When a strong tempest moved water to one side of a lake and the depth of water became shallow in the opposite side, Christ Jesus walked the shallow part of the lake.  When thousands of people gathered on a hill to hear Christ Jess, He found that each of them had enough foods but was concealing them under their clothes, so that He had baskets circulated among them.  And, they could easily take out their hidden foods and put them into the baskets, since their love to neighbors were invoked through Jesus' teachings.        

So, you could explain miraculous performances by Uri Geller in both ways, too.  Geller should have true and real super-natural power or he artfully or cleverly exercised his skills as a magician.  The fact that every miraculous performance by Geller can be also made possible through magics or conjuring tricks does not mean that he did it with his skills of magics or tricks. 

Men can fly in the air with an airplane, but it does not mean that men cannot fly in the air with some super-natural power.

What's more, you may think that anything in this world can be bought or realized by money, but you cannot deny that there is something in this world that can be also obtained or realized by power of love or super-natural power.  Put simply, what can be achieved by use of money, material, technology, science, etc. can be also achieved through power of love and prayers or ideas.  

Indeed, Christ Jesus said that even life of men are realized not only by foods but also by words of God:
Matthew 4, King James Version
4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.


Even spoon bending can be achieved by a magic or trick but also by super-natural power or spiritual power given by the God to God's chosen people.

However, I do not think that Uri Geller borne in Israel like Christ Jesus is another Jesus or an antichrist.  But Satan who wants people pursue money should want people to doubt that such performances can be achieved through any means not based on magics, tricks or special artificial skills that can be obtained by money.

Anyway, it must be difficult to explain how the Holly Mary has appeared in her apparitions, if not believing that her apparitions are true spiritual facts.  But, too many people seem to have only insufficient spiritual ability.

John 12, King James Version

24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.
25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.
26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.
27 Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.
