Unit 21  Session 1

WATER TO WINE

john 2:1-11

 

Key Concept:

Jesus' power over creation reveals His divine glory and our only hope for salvation.

The prologue to John's Gospel declared Jesus to be God (1:1), the One through Whom all things were created (1:3), and the revelation of the Father's glory (1:14). Then John recounted John the Baptist's witness (1:19-34) and Jesus' calling of His first disciples (1:35-51). Turning water into wine was Jesus' first miraculous sign recounted in John's Gospel. The site of this first miracle, Cana, was a town in the region of Galilee near Jesus' hometown of Nazareth. This episode marked the beginning of Jesus' public ministry.

As you examine John 2:1-11:

 

✞   Contemplate that while the Father's will was Jesus' first priority,

    He also met the needs of others.

✞   Recognize that this miracle revealed Jesus' glory and further

    convinced His disciples to believe in Him.
