It is all God mental energy-consciousness that turn into material-physical staff.

So if a gun-toting maniac comes in to the room, will you run and hide or simply say "it's an illusion". You don't act as if life is an illusion and you know it. Do you look both ways before crossing the street? Why? the physical bus is a mere illusion right? Please go test this and let us know.
This is exactly what happen when your consciousness has and keep a parallelism with the physical world.
In this case you got to deal with the matter but when you manage to expand your consciousness
it all change.
As a Christian you should know this better than me.
Jesus according to what was said of him could do things that people call MIRACLES but miracles are not really.
As you can expand your consciousness by raising your vital energy also known as kundalini you can
manage to control matter, water, heat-light, air, space and merge in the cosmic consciousness body.
Jesus was walking on water, heal people, disappear and so on.
Obviously all these power he got from previous lives and finally he reach the state of supreme consciousness.
Everybody can do that and his main purpose in his life was just to show to people the way
but it is important not to come to quick conclusion.
Your spiritual teacher will make sure that you can't use these power for obvious reason.
The temptation to use these power would be far too much to control leading the spiritual aspirant to
fall in the abyss of self destruction so only when you reach the higher stage of cosmic consciousness you
will be allow to use these power as Jesus did.
Some silly people think that i suppose to see inside boxes just because i practice yoga but they haven't really got a clue as the whole system works.
So, yes a bullet would kill me.
That wouldn't be an illusion for sure but for God it is.
Jesus could not have died in the cross if he only wanted.
He had the power to avoid that but why would he avoid it?
He came to show people how to live and progress.
We can go behind physical death and that is all it matter.
