White men can’t jump.
The corollary has been proven.
Just a thought that maybe the plan was to immediately duck under the water, seemingly drown, swim underwater a safe distance where you won’t be seen surfacing, and then reappear in say, 3 days?
Nigerian Pastor Tries to Walk on Water Like Jesus, Then Drowns in Front of His Congregation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wow. Is this not a coincidence, or what?
I just got an email from his widow needing assistance in moving $125,000 USD out of that country. All I need do is email her back my bank info.
do not test God.
there was no reason for these guys to do these miracles. there were purposes for the biblical miracles. God does miracles for His reasons, and His purposes, not just for a show.
if you look for miracles anyway, you will see many around you every day. how about your pet recovering from an illness? how about another day everyone in the house gets up, and all go to sleep at the end of the day? how about driving a couple hundred miles in your car in a day and getting home safely without any incidents? being able to do what you want to do and getting it done, without a calamity or catastrophe occurring?
“Step 1: Try standing up in the bathtub. “
Water is REALLY slippery to stand on. There’s no traction. He probably slipped and hit his head.
“Jesus walked on the water, and I know that it’s true.
Sometimes I think that preacher man would like to do a little walk’n too”.

You’d think that if you heard a voice telling you to do it you’d at least try it by yourself to verify it works. I know every time a voice tells me to buy an assault rifle I say, “Wait a minute. Who are you that you don’t know I already have one?” And it says, “Oh, sorry. Wrong head. Go back to sleep.”

I’m thinking he did try it by himself. And it worked, He COULD walk on water. Many different times.
Then he tries it in public and he drowns.
He gets to Heaven and God laughs at him. He says; “Dammit God. NOT funny.”
He's African. Of course he can't swim.
Did they recover his body? Maybe a croc got him.
I’m having an Eddie Money Moment right now.

How utterly racist of you!
lol
Maybe he should have referenced Matthew 4:5-7 and done what Jesus did there:
Then the devil took him to the holy city and set him on the pinnacle of the temple and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written,
"'He will command his angels concerning you,'
and
"'On their hands they will bear you up,
lest you strike your foot against a stone.'"
Jesus said to him, "Again it is written, 'You shall not put the Lord your God to the test.'"
Jesus said that “Apart from Me you can do nothing.”
People need to apply ALL of the bible... not just part of it.
Such attempts to “recreate” miracles are obviously self serving and thus “apart” from God’s will.
One reported case of a saint floating, if not walking, on the water, while standing.

He must have tried this at Rehoboth Beach DE.
2 feet out and you’re over your head.
Where I live, everybody walks on water.
We call it snow and ice!
