Miracle
A supernatural event in which God reveals His power and nature for the purpose of drawing people to Himself for salvation; in the New Testament, also called “signs” confirming God’s messenger and His message.
Alienate
to make unfriendly, hostile, or indifferent where relationship once existed;
literally, to “tear away.” (Sin alienates man from God.).

To bring those estranged back into unity by removing the cause of
disharmony. (Sinful man can be reconciled to God through Jesus’ death on
the cross.).

Colossians 1:16-18
For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything he might be preeminent.
