think about these places where people claim to have seen the face of Jesus, there was one home that had mold on the bathroom wall and it was said it looked like Jesus' face. There was what, a piece of toast or something that was selling on ebay, that was said to be in the likeness of Jesus' face. I know that you can not dictate how God will reveal Himself. Yet, wouldnt it be more practical for him to reveal Himself in answerd to prayer? Or, like the testimony on Nazarene.org about the man who needed computers for a school, and God answered his prayer and not only gave him computers but someone who would transport them to where he was?
What about these statues that seem to be shedding tears? Do you think God would choose this way to make Himself known? Couldnt He just do it in the ordinary ways of our life?
Should we place any value in these extra ordinary things? Is there a danger in saying that they all are from God? Does the enemy have enough power to falsify these kind of things?

Just stepping in here for a second -- I'm pretty sure the toast on ebay was a picture of Mary, and also if I remember correctly it sold for quite a large sum of money. Crazy, if you ask me.

And I have a hard time believing that Mary OR Jesus would show their face in MOLD. I know I wouldn't.
