Jesus Did Many Wonderful Things

The challenge for modern Christianity is to apply logic and consistency to our traditions. It requires bravery to examine established theological ideas and sacraments. However, to assure we worship the God of the Scriptures in accordance to the Son of God, this work is mandatory. Creeds, counsels and belief statements which require arbitrary obedience to the church over Christ creates a disconnect with the Scriptures. These false notions must be erased to make room for the doctrines Jesus came to reveal. ***Ch . 37 - Jesus Walks On The SeaMatthew 14:24-33; Mark 6:47-52; John 6:16-21While Jesus was alone in the Mountain praying, his disciples entered a boat and started over the sea toward Capernaum. But the wind rose and lashed the sea into great waves and held up their progress.             About the fourth watch of the night Jesus came down to the shore, saw the boat, and walked upon the sea toward them.            When they saw him in the water, his disciples were troubled and said:            “It is a spirit.”            They cried out with fear.            Jesus heard them and said:            “Be of good cheer. It is I; be not afraid.”            Peter replied, saying:            “Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.”            Jesus said:            “Come.”            Peter descended from the boat and walked toward Jesus on the water. When he saw that the waves were boisterous, he was afraid and began to sink. He cried out, saying:            “Lord, save me.”            Immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, caught Peter, and said to him:            “O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?”            When the two of them entered the boat, the wind ceased. All who were on board came and worshiped Jesus, saying:            “Of a truth thou art the Son of God.”
