Miracle Worker (disambiguation)
A miracle worker is a person whose actions, words, or claims concerning or deriving from the supernatural are verified by the manifestation of a, or many miracle(s), imputing to said individual the reputation of miraculous capability, independent of that individual's capacity to manifest miracles within the laws of observable reality by cause of their own self or physical nature.
This definition serves to disambiguate the term "miracle worker" from magical taxonomy, in that some, specifically biblical, (e.g. John 14:11, 1 Kings 18:36-39, Matthew 3:17, Luke 9:35, Matthew 9:5-7) accounts of miracles do not attribute the miraculous as deriving from the will of an individual, but as the imputation of the divine to verify an individual's account of the divine.
