Description

There are several accounts of Jesus walking on the water before the resurrection (Matthew 14:22-36; Mark 6:45-56; John 6:16-21). Peter is the one that dares to step out on the water, believing that he, with faith, can do what Jesus is doing. He fails, but has an intimate understanding of Christ�s teaching. In Mark�s account, they are so afraid of what they see, they think He is a ghost: When he saw that they were straining at the oars against an adverse wind, he came towards them early in the morning, walking on the sea. He intended to pass them by. But when they saw him walking on the sea, they thought it was a ghost and cried out; for they all saw him and were terrified. (Mark 6: 48-50).
There is one account of the resurrected Christ appearing to 7 disciples near the shore. (John 21:1-25) It is a fishing scene, similar to previous accounts, of not being able to catch any fish. Peter is the one that recognizes Jesus and later declares his love, thrice, making up for the 3 denials. At the very end it says in John 21: 25: But there are also many other things that Jesus did; if every one of them were written down, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.
This painting is a combination of all the accounts. It speaks of miracles, the Holy Spirit, and the things that Jesus did that are not written down. It also speaks to the moment when he intended to pass them. In what form was He, that they thought he was a ghost? Because of His sacrifice, we are freed from the bondage of sin. Not only that, we can strive to attain heavenly realms, through our full-time friend and miracle-maker.
