Catechism of the Catholic Church Paragraphs: - 549 (in 'The Signs of the Kingdom of God') - By freeing some individuals from the earthly evils of hunger, injustice, illness, and death, Jesus performed messianic signs (abbreviated) - 2443 (in 'Love for the Poor') - It is by what they have done for the poor that Jesus Christ will recognize his chosen ones. When “the poor have the good news preached to them,” it is the sign of Christ’s presence (abbreviated) - 548 (in 'The signs of the Kingdom of God') - So miracles strengthen faith in the One who does his Father’s works; they bear witness that he is the Son of God. But his miracles can also be occasions for “offense”; they are not intended to satisfy people’s curiosity or desire for magic (abbreviated) Got a Bible question?
