Moses vs Jesus Christ - Best magician/miracle worker?

Post Reply New Topic

Moses parted the Red Sea but Jesus Christ walked on water. So, who had the greater powers of spiritual magic/performing miracles, Moses or Jesus?

In terms of the energy required to part the Red Sea for a number of hours vs simply walking on the crest of waves for five minutes, I lean toward Moses as having the strongest spiritual powers.

Your view?

Well, Moses had the better miracles. However, Moses didn't rise from the dead, ascend into Heaven, and isn't poised to return to judge the quick and the dead. Moreover, Moses' mom wasn't a Virgin, nor was he his own father. Being your own father would be tough to beat. However, it probably wouldn't thrill the crowds as much as a plague of locusts and the parting of a sea.

The big thick long one of Moses swallowed up the big thick long ones of Pharo's magicians. Sigmund Freud would have had a great time with the Bible.

Freud could be aroused by the most mundane things. He must have masturbated a lot.

I'll give it to Jesus. God incarnate, and all.
