Jesus Christ was the savior of the world. He was the one whom Almighty God sent, as stated in John 3:16-17" for God so loved the world that he gave his only son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God sent the son into the world, not to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him”.

While Jesus was on his way to winning souls for the kingdom, he perform many miracles to attract the sons of the kingdom. Although many want to see miracles before followed this should not happen in that way. Jesus made his disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds. And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up to the mountain by himself to pray.

When evening came, he was there alone, but the boat by this time was many furlongs distant from the land, beaten by the waves, for the wind was against them. And in the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea. But when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were terrified, saying, it is a ghost! And they cried out for fear. But immediately he spoke to them, saying, take heart, it is I, have no fear.

And Peter answered him, Lord, if it is you, bid me come to you on the water. He said, come. So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus, but when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, Lord, save me. Jesus immediately reached out his hand and caught him, saying to him, o man of little faith, why did you doubt?

When they got into the boat, the wind ceased. And those in the boat worshipped him, saying, truly you are the son of God. And when they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesareth. When the men of that place recognized him, they sent round to all that region and brought to him all that were sick, and be sought him that they might only touch the fringe of his garment, and as many as touched it were made well.
