I believe Jesus did have ESP (Extra Sensory Perception) because he seemed to able to read what was in people's thoughts and many at imes He already knew beforehand what people were thinking. But how did He knew? There are people who claims to have ESP also. The following verses seem to confirm the ESP:

John 1:47-49
47 When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, he said of him, 'Here truly is an Israelite in whom there is no deceit.'
48 'How do you know me?' Nathanael asked.
Jesus answered, 'I saw you while you were still under the fig tree before Philip called you.'

John 4:39
Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in him because of the woman’s testimony, 'He told me everything I ever did.'

Matthew 9:4
Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said, 'Why do you entertain evil thoughts in your hearts?

Matthew 22:18
But Jesus, knowing their evil intent, said, 'You hypocrites, why are you trying to trap me?

Luke 9:47
Jesus, knowing their thoughts, took a little child and had him stand beside him.

John 6:15
Jesus, knowing that they intended to come and make him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by himself.

John 6:64
Yet there are some of you who do not believe.' For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray him.

John 18:4
Jesus, knowing all that was going to happen to him, went out and asked them, 'Who is it you want?'

Many Blessings.

It's clear that Jesus did have ESP.

But ESP is more than Extra Sensory Perception: ESP (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiZjeeMExY4)

I am not sure if yor comment is appreciative or sarcastic. ESP can mean anything our powerful imaginations can devised but let's be serious... this is the real meaning of ESP:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extrasensory_perception

I personally believe that the ESP that Jesus had was provided by the Holy Spirit. It is through the Holy Spirit that Jesus apostles were able to do many amazing miracles that were done by Jesus...raising the dead, cure diseases, prophesy etc.To deny Jesus and His apostles performing miracles is to deny the existence of the Holy Spirit.

Many Blessings.

Well it's not meant sarcastic at all. Your post is good, a real eye-opener! The text shows it clearly so it's not an "I believe" issue any more but more an "I understand".

And I made an addition to it, what it means in the physical realm.

:signthankspin: NumberX. I mistaken your comment...my apology.

ESP may be a scary thought on one hand when people can read your mind and know what you are thinking. On the other hand there is no way people can cheat or lie as people can read what you are thinking. When telepathic technology becomes perfect, there will be no use for telephone, email or cellphone ....just sent a telepathic message and the other party will receive it. There are many examples of telepathic communication in the Bible between God and people, a good example was the commiunication between God and Moses in which only Moses could hear what God was instructing him. Vision which is different from visual hallucination may be a form of telephatic images.

Many Blessings.
