(6) The First Sign: Miracle at the Wedding
(John 2:1-12)
Dr. W. Jamie Kim
I. The Occasion
II. The Orchestration
The wedding took place
Jesus was there
The disciples were there too
Wine ran out
Mary alerts Jesus
Jesus’ possible reaction or response
Mary ignores Jesus’ response and instructs the servants
The stage is now set
III. The First Miracle
Give whatever is available (v. 6)
Obey even if it may not make any sense. Usually miracles don’t make sense (v. 7). Don’t complain.
Do not be lazy. Give everything you’ve got (v. 7)
Faith means obedience (v. 8). Don’t be reluctant.
IV. The Result
Jesus revealed His glory
The disciples put their faith in Him
