Show Notes

The story of the human race begins in Eden with God officiating at a wedding between Adam and Eve. Jesus performs his first miracle and launches his 3 ½-year public ministry at a wedding. This tells us something about God’s view of marriage, something we need to understand and appreciate

 

This first miracle included turning water into wine. The apostle John uses an interesting word to describe it. He calls it a sign and uses this word 17 times in his gospel. When applied to a miracle this word implies that the miracle is an indication of some power or meaning behind it to which the miracle is secondary in importance. What hidden meaning is there behind this miracle? We provide three answers to this question.

 

Scriptures referenced include John 2:1-12; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Psalm 4:7; and John 15:11.
