The Nukak, miracles, and the modern world

Have you heard about the Stone Age tribe which recently decided to join the modern world? The Nukak live in the jungles of Colombia. They hunt monkeys with blowguns for food. They don't know that a country named "Colombia" exists. They ask whether the planes flying overhead are moving on an invisible road. Nearly everything we take granted in modern life is miraculous for them.

Of course, a miracle to the Nukak isn't a miracle to us. Electricity and computers and radio programs like this one require no supernatural explanation. According to The DaVinci Code, the same is true for Jesus. The novel claims that he was a man like the rest of us, made into a divine figure three centuries later through Church politics.

Is that true? Are Christians wrong about Christ? Is there objective evidence for the biblical claim that Jesus is our living Lord? To decide for yourself, I invite you to godissues.com today.
