Why does something unexplained have to become a miracle. Why can’t it just be...”What is...is”.

The lack of belief is on the side of the church. That is why we don’t see the miracles of healing and raising from the dead as in the early church.
Those irrefutable miracles DO bring non-believers to Jesus. But we in the church need to get with the program, align with the Gospel of the Grace of Christ, and let his power be demonstrated to a lost and dying world.

Could you ever prove fraud to a believer?
To: SeekAndFind
that we do not live in a closed system in which all causation is a matter of natural laws? It is pretty much beyond science to "prove" such a thing.
Science deals in things which are repeatable.
It is nearly impossible to repeat some events.
It is clearly impossible to prove nothing supernatural exists.
Those who do not want any higher power, will just define anything not explained as "natural".

I was just talking to my brother about life's miracles. I class coincidences that couldn't be a coincidence as life's miracles. Sadly for them, they are never enough to convince a skeptic.

Probably not. After all they've already rejected the evidence around them, the amazing human body, the miracle of life itself, the complexity of a single cell. There's probably no miracle that the person can't twist into a way to deny God. Even if his brother comes back from the dead to warn them.
Here's a few scriptures that deal with God revealing himself. It usually takes some initiative.
I once read a 700 page book by Hans Kung titled Does God Exist. He went through proof after proof of God's existence and gave a skeptic's answer to each. At the end of the book, he concluded that only God could reveal himself to an individual.
You can however pray that God shows that person a miracle. T.W. Hunt talked about doing that once for a person. And I've heard that miracles occur more frequently on the mission front where the gospel needs some form of validation in face of competing faiths.
There are a few of the scriptures that speak to when God reveals himself:
- Jerimiah 19:13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
- Isaiah 55:6 Seek the LORD while He may be found, Call upon Him while He is near.
- James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. [6] But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
- John 14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
- John 3:16-25 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither* cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

Prove to someone else the existence of a God? Nope. I don’t need to. I don’t want to. My belief in God is for My Spirit and no one else’s. If I am wrong...I don’t care. My life is better this way and I personally know the difference. Don’t believe in a God? Living like there is none? You better be right. Good luck.

Atheism requires a stunning level of “head in the sand” denial of reality.
Why? It is impossible that unimaginable complexity and design could spontaneously arise solely from time plus blind chance.
I recall a biologist comparing the inner workings of a cell (any cell) with the vast infrastructure of a major metropolis, including electrical, water, sewage, roads, communications, etc.
The same biologist concluded by admitting that this limited understanding only begins to scratch the surface, and that we only know about 3% of what is going on inside a typical cell.
The book of Genesis provides the only eminently reasonable explanation: “In the beginning God created...”

That's why its called
"faith". M But. ore and more it seems that people's new religion is "science". They also create "science" to suit their agendas.
And people like that don't believe in miracles unless it backs up their agendas.

Miracles happen all the time. However, after a short time, most people forget about them. Only a few people that are aware of this forgetfulness can remember them, and only then if they have made some effort to remember.
Making this worse is that miracles tend to be “one-shots” in a given place and time, and with only certain people.
