The Miracle
The Miracle
It was Genuine
Jesus shortened the process
Jesus has power over all things Heb. 1:3 “by the word of his power”
Jesus will change our bodies at resurrection Phil. 3:21 “Who shall change our vile body” 1 Cor. 15:51 “all be changed”
Conversation with His Mother
John 2:3-5Mary took her problem to Jesus
“What have I to do with thee?” Submitted completely to God
Jn. 5:30 “will of him that sent me.”Jn. 6:38 “not to do mine own will”
“My hour is not yet come”
Beginning of Miracles
John 2:11 “This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.”
Not his lastJohn 20:30-31 “many other signs”John 21:25 “many other things which
Jesus did”
Lessons we can learn
Jesus was no AsceticAscetic = abstain from any pleasuresWell rounded manWeep and rejoice - Rom.12:15
Jesus honored Marriage1 Tim.4:1-3 “Forbidding to marry”Heb. 13:4 “Marriage is honourable”Gen. 2:18 ordained of God
1. Fermented
2. Fruit on the vine - Isa. 65:8 “in the cluster”
3. Intoxicating Prov. 20:1 “Wine is a mocker” Prov. 23:31-32 “biteth like a serpent and
stingeth like an adder”
Jesus would not make the kind prohibited:
Isa. 5:11,12 “Woe unto them…”
Habakkuk 2:15 “Woe unto him that giveth his neighbour drink, that puttest thy bottle to him, and makest him drunken also, that thou mayest look on their nakedness!”
Governor said “well drunk”
Does not endorse drunkenness“well drunk” - “well fed”“methuo”
“filled up”Ps.23:5 “thy cup runneth over”
The bible nowhere justifies drinking intoxicants
Quote from Guy N. Woods
“It is significant that intoxicating liquors of
whatever nature are positively forbidden in the
sacred writings, and there is nothing here or
elsewhere in the scriptures to justify their use
as a beverage and stimulant.”
“He has done all things well” Mark 7:37
