SIGNS: #1 Water to Wine - John 2:1-11

Mar 17, 2024    Mike Burt

“It should come as no surprise of the God who supernaturally created the universe should choose at times to supernaturally intervene in it.” John MacArthur

 

John 20:30,31 “Therefore many other signs Jesus also performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; but these have been written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing you may have life in His name.”

 

The first of the Signs of the Messiah – power over the sin cursed world! Jesus was the Creator – the maker of all that is – so He could make or alter any physical element. Taking time from the beginnings of His ministry he attends a wedding with his mother at nearby Cana. This celebration gives witness to family, faith, humanity, and the divine – so much in a simple wedding reception! 

Sunday I will take us through the Jewish celebration – the role of guests – the use of wine – the use of Jesus of common things to make uncommon lessons – all in a few verses. This will be the first of Seven Signs (we will take time out for Easter) as we enter into the demonstrations of the I AM – Jesus the Messiah. Just like the wedding ceremony I am asking you to invite someone to join you.


See you Sunday – 

Pastor Mike

BTW – there is a connection between this miracle and original creation in Eden – I hope you find it as interesting as I did – come and see!
