Gospels tell us that he had more success outside his own region. U know the prophet in his own land saying? If he was who he thought he was, why did people who knew him from a boy etc not experience his miracles in the same way as those who did not know him? Does this speak to one having to believe before "miracle" happens? Doesnt this indicate that its all inside us anyway?
Thne Jews really didn’t want the Messiah at that time but another Moses to free them from the Romans!

There is a saying in the consulting field that one is not an expert until he gets at least 100 miles from home. I consulted all over the world, but had very few consulting jobs in Arizona. I am sure that Christ had a similar problem. He was only a carpenter’s son when he lived in Nazareth.
When he went back to nazareth after he started preaching they wanted to take him out and throw him over a cliff.

Jesus was Jewish. He was at odds with the Hebrew priests of the time. He was a "boat rocker" and the "establishment" didn’t want anything to do with him. The disenfranchised and ignorant were more than happy to listen to his prophecies of salvation and doom to the people that oppressed them.

A prophet is not without honor save in his own country and in his own family.Those that knew him new very well who he was.They just had no faith.There were many places the LORD went to where the people were so faithless he himself could do only few miracles.Those that watched him grow up were at the disadvantage of believing he was GOD because they watched him from his youth.They weren’t trained in the scriptures as to how CHRIST would come about.Its the same today.False doctrines quash the power of the word. THANK YOU D’S P.S YOUR FAITH BE IT UNTO YOU.JESUS TOLD THE ROMAN SOLDIER GO YOUR WAY YOU FAITH BE IT UNTO YOU.HE MARVELED AT THE ROMANS FAITH AND SAID HE FOUND NOTHING LIKE THAT IN HIS COUNTRY MEN

The first poster was right. It has more to do with the fact that these people watched him grow up and thought they knew him. They simply couldn’t believe that he could perform miracles or be a messenger from God. There does have to be a willingness to believe for miracles. Without that willingness to believe you will simply explain away the miracle. (Oh, it wasn’t really cancer in the first place, the doctors just made a mistake.) But no, I don’t think it’s all inside us, just the willingness to believe is.

It may just be a phenomenon of small towns. They can be great to grow up in, but you have to leave if your purpose is bigger than the ideas of the townspeople.
A miracle is when you turn fear into love.Yes, that happens inside of us.

The saying is true: "Familiarity breeds contempt."
Miracle does happen whether one believes or not; otherwise, Jesus couldn’t have raised his friend Lazarus from the dead. And the feeding of the five thousand? The loaves need not believe in order to be multiplied! And in the feast in Cana? The water need not believe in order to be turned into wine! And the waves of the roaring sea? It need not believe in order to follow his order to calm down! Go figure!
Unbelief is an insult no matter how familiar you’re to the skeptics. You may not even bestow your kindness to those who show contempt to your person. And that’s the rule of the road.

Because the people who knew him had evidence first hand that he was a mortal being, it is much easier to convince people you are someone your not from afar, hence the danger of internet support groups.
I myself am godlike, I can fly, heal people, and lift school busses with my pinky… you don’t know me so how can you be sure I’m not telling the truth?
