Title: The Answer is in Jesus

text description
Ex) Israel who saw a miracle
The important thing is to understand and realize the meaning of miracles.
The point is that understanding and realizing the signs is more important than seeing them and experiencing them firsthand.
Today's text is also a written word. It was the miracle of Jesus.
It is also the first transfer. We have not seen and experienced this miracle firsthand. But we can understand and realize the meaning of this miracle.
Let's find out who Jesus is through the text.
1. Jesus is the Son of God.
For Jesus, working miracles means more than solving problems. Jesus' miracles had the meaning of Christ's self-declaration.
It means declaring that I am the Messiah the prophet prophesied.
This self-declaration of Christ is part of God's plan of salvation, and it is in God's authority to determine when to begin these important things, not man's.
Ex) Kwon's episode
2. He is the one who fills in what is lacking.
It is very difficult for the host who made the feast to run out of wine.
The Lord was in a difficult and difficult place due to lack
And you filled in the gaps. You filled it with something better than it was before. Those who attended the feast tasted the wine the Lord had filled and said to the owner. "You've had good wine so far!"
Everyone!
Have you ever struggled with a lack of something important in your life?
Aren't you worried about the lack of what you need?
I hope you find the Lord who is there with you.
The Lord, the Lord of all things, will fill you. It will fill you with something better.
3. He is the one who changes.
Our problem is that we have the form and form of faith, but we do not have the power.
I go to church diligently, read the Bible and volunteer.
but no ability.
Following the Jewish custom, the six stone jars were empty pots with no power.
It was an incompetent shell. Jesus was in a place where there was no power.
And he told me to fill the stone jar with water.
With these words, water was turned into wine.
He told them to fill the jars with water, which was not capable of making a feast, and made wine from the water.
You made it powerful with the powerless.
Could it be that our faith is like an empty stone jar, but has no power?
Like water that can be filled in a jar, but not a feast, are you living a life that has form but lacks power?
We must change.
must be changed.
Just as water turned into wine, our water baptism must be changed into the baptism of the Holy Spirit on the cross.
Just as an empty jar is filled with wine, so our faith must be filled with power.
Organize your words.
Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God.
Jesus is the One who makes up for our shortcomings.
It is the Lord who filled the banquet in trouble because of the lack of wine.
It is the Lord who filled the withered breast of a woman who came out to draw water with the water of life that never dries up.
It is the Lord who filled the dark heart of Nicodemus with the light of salvation because he did not know the way of salvation.
The Lord will take his place as a holy fullness in our hearts divided by want.
Jesus is the one who changes us.
God changed Jacob into Israel.
God changed the Egyptian prince Moses into the leader of Israel.
It is God who transformed David the shepherd into David the holy soldier.
Jesus turned the fisherman Peter into a great apostle.
It is Jesus who transformed Saul the persecutor into Paul the evangelist.
I believe that the Lord will transform us, who are weak and lacking, into workers of power.
I hope that we will all find the answer in Jesus instead of searching for the answer elsewhere.
