In the years leading up to the Protestant Reformation, the Christian Church had strayed far from the Biblical model Christ had set for His Body. This was true in many aspects of ecclesias­tical practice, including the preaching of a false gospel which included worship of images and the dead (a distortion of the Old Testament Prophetic Office), improper administration of the sacraments, particularly in the Mass (misinterpreting the Priestly Office) and in gross failures to properly administer Church disci­pline (thereby perverting the Kingly Office).

Some have defined miracles as violations of scientific laws. On the surface this seems like a work­able explanation, but looking deeper it becomes obvious the statement itself expresses a view­ hostile to the miraculous. To refer to "violating" scientific laws, after all, is to ascribe authority to those laws.
