∙ 13y agoThere is an explanation, but not in the sense of the natural sciences. Dennis R. MacDonald (The Homeric Epics and the Gospel of Mark) has demonstrated that there are many clear parallels between the Epics of Homer and the gospel stories. Just as the god Hermes walked on water to reach Priam, so also Jesus walked on water in similar circumstances.
On this view, the story of Jesus walking on water is likely a copy of the older account by Homer.

∙ 12y agoThere is no record of Christ having done so. In the case of Peter, Christ did not make him walk upon the water, but it was a test of Peters faith that he could if he so desired. However, as we learned Peters faith was not strong enough so he began to sink and cried out to the Savior to help him.
