John 1:26 "John answered them, saying, “I baptize with water, but there stands One among you whom you do not know.
John 1:33-34 "I did not know Him, but He who sent me to baptize with water said to me, ‘Upon whom you see the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him, this is He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit. And I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God.”

The Story: John 2:1-10
1 Three days later, there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee . Jesus' mother was there,
2 Jesus also was invited to the wedding with his disciples.
3 When the wine failed , the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.
4 Jesus answered and said unto her, Woman , what was there between you and me ? My hour has not yet come.
5 His mother said to the servants, Whatever he tells you.
6 Now there were six stone water jars , the purifying of the Jews, each containing two or three measures .
7 Jesus said to them: Fill the jars with water. And they filled them to the brim.
8 Draw out now, he said, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they took it.
9 When the ruler of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from , though the servants who had drawn the water knew well , he called the bridegroom ,
10 and said to him: Every man at first serves good wine and worst after he got drunk ; thou hast kept the good wine until now .
Explanation, verse by verse:
Verse 1, the #Union: It's a wedding at Cana that involves two people, the groom and the bride (God and man).
The number two plays a symbolic role in this verse; Number 2 transmits the sense of union. A man and a woman, two in number, are made one in marriage (Genesis 2:23 - 24). The union is a very important process in the face of God.
Verse 2, the #unionOfGraceAndAuthority: Jesus is the Grace and the 12 disciples demonstrate his power, his authority. The critical element that allows a couple to function is the effect of grace, which is characterized spiritually. The physical element that validates this union is the authority, demonstrating grace.
We notice that the authority itself is under grace.
Our God is a God of grace and order, (Genesis 1:1-31).
Verse 3, #DivineGrace: The wine that brings joy, lack; human beings lack the essential element that revives the spirit, the grace of the Holy Spirit. This is the beginning of torment, because man thinks to manufacture substitute that indefinitely, would make him happy. While an intermediary (his mother) took the initiative to tell God what to do. Incredible!
Verse 4, the #PlanWithoutMary: Jesus made it clear to Mary that God is God. In a word, it would be wise not to meddle with what does not concern her, but mostly what she is not yet ready to understand, because the time had not yet come.
In general, our plan is not God's plan. Everyone has their idea, but God's plan is the best because he knows when to act to help his children. In this parable, Jesus excludes any authority concerning Mary.
Verse 5, #Jesus is #grace and #authority: Marie abides by the principles of Jesus, and said to the servants (people), do what he tells you.
This verse clearly states that, the grace and authority is only in Jesus and Mary has no authority or business knowledge of God.
Verse 6, the #ManAndRituals: this passage exposes us customs men of that era; six stone jars in a way, contained the formula of purification (grace).
Verse 7, #perfection: Jesus uses the vases and accurate filling of water to the brim.
This symbolizes purification, baptism by immersion (immersing the entire body in water), the transition from religion (customs) to the spirituality that Jesus planned and teaches us.
Verse 8, a new beginning: the result that follows from this immersion is a new beginning, because you are born again.
Verse 9, The #HolySpirit: In the previous verse we are born again through baptism by immersion. To complete the transformation, we then receive the Holy Spirit who is the special promise of Jesus (Jean1: 33, John 16:12-15).
The day of Pentecost in Acts ch. 2, the disciples were all together in the Holy Spirit;
In verse 13 it is written: "Some, however, made fun of them and said, these men are full of new wine.
Then Peter said unto them with these words: These people are not drunk, as this is the 3rd time of day, but this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:
In the last days says God, I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh. "
Verse 10, the #completenessOfTheOrder: the master of the feast takes knowledge of the good wine at the end, which is none other than the Holy Spirit.
At the end, Jesus will only choose the people who are born again by the Holy Spirit, as their behaviour will be holy.
In the book of Mark ch.3:28 -29, it is clearly written that whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven; they are guilty of an eternal sin”, because denying the Holy Spirit, it’s to deny Jesus also, who is the way, the truth and the life.
Jesus is not speaking of drinking alcohol in any case. The entire Bible tells us to remain holy and to be an example (Christians) for others. BUT HE IS TALKING ABOUT A WEDDING OF GOD and MAN, TO RESTORE THE COMMUNICATION.
Now, ignorant of the law you have no excuse
