My son’s religion teacher told them that when Jesus multiplied the bread and fish. It was actually the people that took out extra food and this was how there was enough food to feed 4000. How true is this?
 
Hi,

Well, it is NOT true! This fallacy seems to still be making the rounds. There is nothing in Scripture to suggest it. The Church certainly doesn’t teach it. Our Lord and Savior was quite capable of multiplying the bread and fish. To find greater credibility in the people sharing, than in Jesus working a miracle is to have a problem with faith.

Fr. Vincent Serpa, O.P.
