The stupid fundamentalist mindset that Jesus was special because he was "without sin" is funny. Look at sin and think of missing the mark.
Now let's say that Jesus was different from everybody because he hit the mark. Not because he was perfectly sinless.
Soooo many people have said Jesus did not come here to teach us how to do what he did. Then the next blunder is "I don't see anyone else walking on water". But they forget................Peter also walked on the water.

You will find things like I did, where they mistranslate, and keep the mistranslation through all subsequent versions.
Rev 17-3
Rev 12-3
Rev 13-1
In these verses they took a number symbol descriptor and changed it into a counter.
