Why did Jesus Turn Water to Wine?

This question was discussed in the last week's Gasoline Alley Winner's Circle Bible Study. A couple things to notice in John 2.... Mary did not ask Jesus to do this. She did not even ask him to fix the problem. She simply stated in verse 2 “They have no more wine.” But she knew He would do something. In verse 4 she instructed the servants “Do whatever he tells you.” At first look, we might assume that Jesus was just saving the wedding from disaster. Or that He was simply being obedient to his mother's implied request. Or maybe it was so he could show others He could perform a miracle....

Look at verse 11... this was the beginning of the revealing of His glory and it says, "and his disciples believed in him." His disciples were convinced at this moment that "this was the guy"!

What will it take for you to believe, to trust, to follow...... fix your eyes on Jesus....

What about Jesus' Heart?

What does Jesus' willingness to become a human being reveal about his heart? This question was from last week's Gasoline Alley Winner's Circle study.

John 17:6-8 In Jesus' prayer for disciples gives us an image of just where His heart is when it comes to those who follow him. “I have revealed you to those whom you gave me out of the world. They were yours; you gave them to me and they have obeyed your word. Now they know that everything you have given me comes from you. For I gave them the words you gave me and they accepted them. They knew with certainty that I came from you, and they believed that you sent me."

Do you follow Him?

Have you received Jesus?

John 1:11-12 He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—

This is an excerpt from the Gasoline Alley Bible study last week - Many people did not believe that Jesus was God's Son. What did they miss by not receiving him? What did they miss in addition to eternal life?

Have you received Jesus? If so, you are a child of God! Thanks be to the Lord!
