Does drinking water break a fast?

To answer this question,let us take a good look at how Jesus Christ
fasted in the Bible. (See Matthew 4: 1-11;Luke 4:1-13). After
all,Jesus Christ should be our example.


At the end of his 40-day fast,"he felt hungry",not thirsty. The Devil
asked him to turn stones into bread,not into water. Jesus evidently
drank water during his fasting period.


Science has shown that while humans can do without food for 40
days,they can do without water for only 3-5 days
