Cooper on miracles and the one true Church

12 September 2026 · miracles, apologetics, protestantism, video

Jordan Cooper takes up the recent round of miracle-based apologetics and asks whether modern Catholic miracle claims are of the same evidential order as the New Testament sign-miracles.

A careful working through of a claim that keeps surfacing online: that the presence of miracles in Roman Catholicism is proof that Rome is the one true Church founded by Christ. Cooper’s key move is to distinguish the evidential scope of a miracle from the ecclesial conclusion the apologist wants to draw from it — a distinction the strong form of the argument tends to elide.

Worth watching in full. The framing is charitable; the pushback is sharp where it needs to be.
