Abstract
This article examines the views of David Hume on miracles in Christianity in his book “An Inquiry Concerning Human Understanding”. Using a literature approach and systematic analysis of David Hume's writings, this research generates several ideas. David Hume wrote that any miracle that happens in this world is a violation of the laws of nature. Miracles destroy the natural order and are not in line with the existing law of nature. David Hume opposed the idea of miracles because he was a religious skeptic, against all things metaphysical and non-natural to humans. Thus, David Hume rejected the truth filled with doubts and questions. David Hume's skepticism leads to the theory of deism, that God is a product of human thought and He does not interfere with what He created.
