Acts of Jesus Christ Defy Laws of Nature
Jesus, while still in the flesh, displayed authority over the elements, over the natural, because he is always supernatural. He is always God, even when he was in the flesh as a man, he was still God. Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and forever!
​
Hebrews 13:8
Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
​
Jesus, the creator of all, willingly subjected himself to great pain and suffering, even unto death, to prove his divine love for each one of us. But even on the cross, he was eternal, supernatural. One word by Him and all the pain and suffering would disappear. But, it was His Will to sacrifice himself. This is the true baptism of Christ, His death and resurrection. The Jonah sign.

We also see in this that even nature and the elements obey Him!

And presently the fig tree withered away. 20 And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How soon is the fig tree withered away! 21 Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done. 22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
