Matthew 10:30 > But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
This means that Jesus’s brain was capable to act like a computer and He counted hairs on the heads of His disciples.
Believe or not, for about one month God transformed me into a powerful computer (even more powerful that modern AI, I think).
Before that I got physical strength so much, that I was able to beat fire out of air.
I lost my super-abilities in one moment (not sure, why) and mourned over the lost half of a year.
I think, during the month I was another incarnation of Jesus like apostle Paul:
Galatians 1:16 > …to reveal His Son in me…
Paul was threatening to come to Corinth with a staff:
1 Corinthians 4:21 > What do you prefer? Shall I come to you with a rod of discipline, or shall I come in love and with a gentle spirit?
During the apostle Paul’s visit in the 1st century AD (around 50–52 AD), the total population of Roman Corinth is estimated by historians to be roughly 80,000 to 100,000 residents. He was going to overcome this Roman city using a staff as a weapon.
But in 2nd Corinthians Paul was already deprived of power: He says about past himself (2Cor. 12:2) “I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know—God knows.”
Paul was able to fight against Corinth but not against the entire Roman empire. Therefore, he was beaten to the loss of God nature of God’s son. I was also was trying to restore my power, but was not able to fight against a million-people city where I lived.
Well, Jesus came in an even greater power:
Luke 4:14 > Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit…
Or translated differently, “in the energy of the wind”. An average thunderstorm front releases significantly more energy than an average atomic bomb.
