Tj and I are having a discussion.... about Jesus turning bread into fish by the sea of galalie...
He says that it was never stated....
I state that in the bible it stated the above...
The bad thing is... Tj is buddhist... and knows the bible better than I... a christian... thus... I am looking for backup!
However, He is probably right... but I seems to remember this teaching when I was young...
Tamara?!!??!
Full Version: Jesus Turns Bread Into Fish...
Okay, I don't have the precise passage in front of me, but he didn't turn bread into fish (what sense would that make, even for a miracle?) He multiplied a few loaves and fishes so they fed a crowd of thousands and left several baskets full of leftovers afterward. That's the story.

He turned water into wine, but not bread into fish. Bina got it right.
" You Heathens!" always know more about christianity... then christians!
Thanks for solving the discussion!

bina is right-
jesus didn't turn bread into fishes!
he had a few loaves of bread and a few fish- and a multitude had gathered and were hungry. he told the disciples to pass it out- when they did, it kept multiplying as they passed it out- until the multitude was fed.

the great thing about THAT miracle is that it was jesus' FIRST miracle!
at a wedding, after all the celebrants had RUN OUT of wine-
so there were a bunch of drunks at a wedding celebration who wanted MORE wine, and jesus provided it for them in his FIRST MIRACLE!!!
so cool...

Did he carefully check the ID of everybody at the wedding?
If not, he may be guilty of providing alcohol to a minor, or perhaps corruption of a minor.

Matthew chapter 14 right after Jesus learned of the beheading of John the Baptist.
It was five loaves of bread and two fish. There were about 5,000 men plus the women and children whom I guess no one counted back then. Everybody got their bellies full and then they collected 12 baskets of leftovers.
So apparently, Jesus is like my mother and prepares way more food than the guests can possibly eat.
What I'd like to know is how do you get Jesus to come to your parties? Every time we run low on beer and wine and everybody is only half drunk, I'm always the one who has to walk to the store.
