Bible Miracles Were Witnessed and Verified, Not Invented – Dr Kuuku Dadzie Ephraim

Preaching in the Ability to See series on the Nkwagye Kwan radio program, Dr Kuuku Dadzie Ephraim pointed out that the miracles recorded in the Bible were not blindly accepted but thoroughly verified before being written into Scripture. He cited the healing of the man born blind in John 9, noting that the man himself testified twice to the Pharisees that Jesus had restored his sight, making him the direct proof behind the account.

He also referred to Acts 3, where Peter and John healed a man born lame at the temple gate, who then walked and praised God publicly. He explained that the Jewish leaders tried to dismiss the miracle but the healed man stood before them and the entire city of Jerusalem had witnessed it.

Dr Kuuku Dadzie said this pattern of public testimony and eyewitness confirmation is how the miracles of Jesus and the apostles came to be accepted as true and recorded in the New Testament because they were not private claims but events verified by both the recipients and onlookers.

Touching on God’s own miracles, Dr Kuuku Dadzie said there is no room to dispute acts such as the parting of the Red Sea or the provision of manna and quails for the Israelites, since a God powerful enough to speak the sea into existence could just as easily divide it and that doubting such acts reflects a failure to understand God’s nature.

He challenged sceptics by drawing a local comparison, asking why Ghanaians who believe Okomfo Anokye could summon a golden stool from the sky would doubt that God is capable of far greater acts, whereas He is described as the creator of all things.

Dr Kuuku Dadzie concluded that evil spirits cannot create anything and only manipulate what God has already made to deceive their worshippers, reinforcing his message that the Bible’s account of God’s power stands on its own authority and cannot be equated with any spiritual force.
