wonders
wonders Paul in Jerusalem claimed that the truth about Jesus was confirmed by the signs and wonders that God had done through him (Acts 2: 22) and of which he assumed many in the audience must have been aware. Yet there was a warning that such phenomena could be the work of false Christs (Mark 13: 22); they are not trustworthy (John 4: 48).
