ELI5: If I Jesus can walk on water, babies are seventy-two percent water, and I can walk on babies, am I 72% Jesus

No, you are not 72% Jesus because the math in that idea does not work the way numbers work for real things.

That sentence tries to mix up three different ideas that don’t fit together:

• Jesus walking on water is a special miracle story from the Bible, showing that Jesus has power over nature that only God has. It is not something anyone can do just by being made of water.
• Babies being 72% water is a fact about what their bodies are made of, like how a jellyfish is mostly water too. But being made of water doesn’t give you magic powers.
• Walking on babies is not safe or real. You cannot walk on soft things like babies, and even if you could, it wouldn’t make you like Jesus.

Also, being like Jesus is about loving others, being kind, and trusting God—not about how much water is in your body. The story of Jesus walking on water teaches us to trust Him when things feel scary, like when Peter was afraid in the boat.

So, even if the numbers look funny, the idea doesn’t make sense. You are your own special person, made to love and be loved, not a percentage of anyone else.
