He Walked On Water (three)

Walking on the water, Jesus simply outdares the law of gravity and successfully engendered a joint participation which was made public during the feeding of the five thousand (excluding men and children). When Jesus blessed the five loaves and two fishes, baked dough and cooked fishes got multiplied as the disciples distributed the victuals: joint participation – Adamic partnership with the Lord in the miraculous feeding. In like manner, He had to involve a man, giving the same ability to Peter, in the representative capacity of Christians; it was a restoration of Adam’s lordship of the world. Lucifer, no doubt, is recognized as the god of this world, but a true member of the mystical body of Christ knows that he has the authority to destroy the evil works of Satan which Jesus displayed at His Ascension.
The spiritual conceptualization of two fishes takes one back to the great Deluge. Apart from the eight souls and the animals inside the ark Noah built, the only living beings that did not taste death outside the ark are the fishes of the global body of water. Their spared lives is indicative of the probability of being saved. The focal object of Divine soteriology is Adam. Adam, being flesh, if, according to Divine protocol he must be saved, the totem of the possibility of receiving salvation is the fish. It takes two to engender salvation: the Saviour (God) and the intelligent object of salvation (Adam). Two being the numerology for witness and of testimony, it will look somewhat meaningless to Divine plan if the two fishes were not put in the hands of Jesus, the Christ. Remember what He told Peter and Andrew, when they first met, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men” (Matthew 4:19). Hallelujah!Read More
