Podcasts about Cana

John 2 marks the beginning of the first section of the gospel where he shows how Jesus is the fulfillment of Jewish hopes, using four fixtures in the Jewish faith. Jesus begins his public ministry at a wedding in Cana where He turns water into wine, using the jars intended for the Jewish rites of purification. John then tells the story of Jesus cleansing the temple, but pairs it with a conversation with Jewish religious leaders about the destruction of the temple. All of this reminds us that He is faithful, and we now live under the New Covenant.For more information on this study, go to FeastingOnTruth.com/JohnFor recommended resources, go to FeastingOnTruth.com/ResourcesFor booking inquiries, go to FeastingOnTruth.com/Speaking 

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 10th of September, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go to the Book of Exodus 4:3: And He said, “Cast it on the ground.” That was the rod that Moses was holding. The Lord said, “Cast it on the ground” and it became a serpent. That, my dear friend, is a miracle. Then we go right to the New Testament to the Gospel of John 2:11:”This beginning of signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory; and His disciples believed in Him.” Jesus turned the water into wine at the marriage feast of Cana. The Bible says, “and His disciples believed in Him.”We have a saying at Shalom, it goes like this: “One genuine miracle equals a thousand sermons.” Isn't that true? The Lord said to Moses, “Cast the stick onto the ground” and it turned into a snake, then the Lord said, “Put your hand in your breast under your clothes, and then pull it out,” and it was leprous, white with leprosy. Then the Lord said, “Put your hand back into your clothes, to your breast, and pull it out a second time”, and it was clean and clear. Then the third thing He said, “Take some water, pour it on the ground and it turned into blood.”Folks, I want to say today that I believe in miracles. There are three miracles that the Lord gave Moses to prove to Pharaoh that God had sent him. What about you today? Do you believe in miracles? I want to pray today for an alcoholic who is listening to this message. I want to pray for a drug addict caught in substance abuse, and I want to pray for a miracle in your life today, and I want you to write to me and tell me what has happened. There is an old song that I heard the other day, an old Country and Western song, the type that I really love and this old man was singing a beautiful song from his heart and he said that God turned the wine back into water for him. Isn't that beautiful?Father, I want to pray today for that man, that woman, who is suffering from alcoholism, drug addiction, substance abuse. In Jesus' name, I am believing for a miracle in their lives. Lord, turn it around, set them free, give them a new life.Until next time, Jesus bless you and goodbye.

MARTES 9 DE SEPTIEMBRE DE 2025 TU DOSIS DIARIA DE ESPERANZA “Después de la muerte de Aod, los hijos de Israel volvieron a hacer lo malo ante los ojos de Jehová. Y Jehová los vendió en mano de Jabín rey de Canaán, el cual reinó en Hazor; y el capitán de su ejército se llamaba Sísara, el cual habitaba en Haroset-goim. Entonces los hijos de Israel clamaron a Jehová, porque aquel tenía novecientos carros herrados, y había oprimido con crueldad a los hijos de Israel por veinte años.” (Jueces 4:1-3) Débora reunía todas las condiciones que Dios necesitaba para devolverle al pueblo la fe y la fidelidad que había perdido; y supo hacerlo. Solo que era la consecuencia de “hacer lo malo” delante de Dios. Causa tristeza el hecho de que, para que se volvieran a Dios, Él tuviera que permitir que sus enemigos tomaran ventaja sobre ellos. Pero causa asombro que los buenos tiempos que Dios nos proporciona son los que nos hacen alejarnos de Él. Sentirnos cómodos y seguros, pero no en Dios, nos lleva a alejarnos de Él, del culto, y abandonar el tiempo que debemos darle a Dios. Que el Espíritu Santo, el mismo que guiaba a Débora, sea quien nos convenza de cuánto necesitamos ser fieles a Dios. (Gina Sánchez) -- Te damos la bienvenida a nuestras reflexiones diarias.

While there a man, possessed by a demon, began to make a scene, but Jesus cast the demon out and set the man free using only His words. After a few weeks of healing and teaching, Jesus came back to His hometown of Nazareth where He was met with a less-than-warm welcome.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

Step into the story of Jesus' first miracle at the wedding in Cana, where water was transformed into wine and an ordinary moment became something extraordinary. In this episode, Pastor Alex invites us to see the deeper meaning of this familiar story from the Gospel of John. Together we'll reflect on joy, God's overflowing generosity, and the call to bring our everyday needs—big or small—to Jesus. No matter if life feels full of celebration or heavy with challenge, we'll be reminded that God's presence meets us right where we are with grace, hope, and the promise of new beginnings. Come and discover again that in Christ the old has gone, the new has come, and there is always more than enough.

NOTAS DE ELENAMaterial complementario de la escuela Sabática para adultosNarrado por: Patty CuyanDesde: California, USAUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchLUNES, 08 DE SEPTIEMBRELA IDOLATRÍA Y EL MALDurante este período de espera, tuvieron tiempo para meditar acerca de la ley de Dios que habían oído, y preparar sus corazones para recibir las futuras revelaciones que Moisés pudiera hacerles. Pero no dedicaron mucho tiempo a esta obra. Si se hubieran consagrado a buscar un entendimiento más claro de los requerimientos de Dios, y hubieran humillado sus corazones ante él, habrían sido escudados contra la tentación. Pero no obraron así y pronto se volvieron descuidados, desatentos y licenciosos. Esto ocurrió especialmente entre la "multitud mixta" (V.M.) Sentían impaciencia por seguir hacia la tierra prometida, que fluía leche y miel. Les había sido prometida a condición de que obedecieran; pero habían perdido de vista ese requisito. Algunos sugirieron el regreso a Egipto; pero ya fuera para seguir hacia Canaán o para volver a Egipto, la masa del pueblo resolvió no esperar más a Moisés. Sintiéndose desamparados debido a la ausencia de su jefe, volvieron a sus antiguas supersticiones. La "multitud mixta" fue la primera en entregarse a la murmuración y la impaciencia, y de su seno salieron los cabecillas de la apostasía que siguió. Entre los objetos considerados por los egipcios corno símbolos de la divinidad estaba el buey, o becerro; y por indicación de los que habían practicado esta forma de idolatría en Egipto, hicieron un becerro y lo adoraron. El pueblo deseaba alguna imagen que representara a Dios, y que ocupara ante ellos el lugar de Moisés. Dios no había revelado ninguna semejanza de sí mismo, y había prohibido toda representación material que se propusiera hacerlo. Los extraordinarios milagros hechos en Egipto y en el mar Rojo tenían por fin establecer la fe en Jehová como el invisible y todopoderoso Ayudador de Israel, como el único Dios verdadero. Y el deseo de alguna manifestación visible de su presencia había sido atendido con la columna de nube y fuego que había guiado al pueblo, y con la revelación de su gloria sobre el monte Sinaí. Pero estando la nube de la presencia divina todavía ante ellos, volvieron sus corazones hacia la idolatría de Egipto, y representaron la gloria del Dios invisible por "la imagen de un buey" (Historia de los patriarcas y profetas, pp. 325, 326). Tan solo unos días antes, la presencia del Señor se había manifestado con tal poder que estaban terriblemente asustados y pedían que Moisés escuchara las palabras de Dios y luego les hablara de lo mismo. Pero ahora querían algo visible en lo que pudieran confiar. Podrían haber aprovechado ese momento para aprender lecciones preciosas que el Señor estaba dispuesto a darles si hubieran confiado plenamente en él. Pero el resultado de sus murmuraciones e incredulidad fue que Aarón les hizo un becerro de oro para representar a Dios. Proclamó que este ídolo era Dios, y se creó un gran entusiasmo por este falso dios. Si en vez de hacer esto, les hubiera recordado la maravillosa liberación que Dios había obrado en su favor, y todas las mentes se hubieran sentido impulsadas a expresar gratitud a Dios por todas sus ricas misericordias al liberar a su pueblo de la esclavitud egipcia, se habrían colocado en terreno ventajoso para glorificar al Señor Dios que había obrado tan maravillosa liberación de la degradación y la esclavitud (The Review and Herald, 6 de septiembre, 1906, párr 12, 13). 

John 2:1-11The Wedding at Cana1On the third day there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. 2Jesus also was invited to the wedding with his disciples. 3When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus said to him, “They have no wine.” 4And Jesus said to her, “Woman, what does this have to do with me? My hour has not yet come.” 5His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”6Now there were six stone water jars there for the Jewish rites of purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons. 7Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water.” And they filled them up to the brim. 8And he said to them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the feast.” So they took it. 9When the master 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), the master of the feast called the bridegroom 10and said to him, “Everyone serves the good wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then the poor wine. But you have kept the good wine until now.” 11This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory. And his disciples believed in him.

In this Bible Story, Jesus performs the first of many miracles at a wedding in Cana. By the request of his mother, Jesus blesses a wedding by turning water into wine. Although the guests are not aware of this miracle, the servants and disciples know, and awe at the humble power of Christ. They knew even more that he was the promised Messiah.

As Jesus continued on into the city, He called a man named Phillip to follow Him, and Phillip in turn went to tell his friend Nathanael about finding the Messiah. A few days later, Jesus and His followers were at a wedding in the nearby city of Cana. There, he performed the first of His signs.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

Génesis 12:1-7Pero Jehová había dicho a Abram: Vete de tu tierra y de tu parentela, y de la casa de tu padre, a la tierra que te mostraré. 2 Y haré de ti una nación grande, y te bendeciré, y engrandeceré tu nombre, y serás bendición. 3 Bendeciré a los que te bendijeren, y a los que te maldijeren maldeciré; y serán benditas en ti todas las familias de la tierra. 4 Y se fue Abram, como Jehová le dijo; y Lot fue con él. Y era Abram de edad de setenta y cinco años cuando salió de Harán. 5 Tomó, pues, Abram a Sarai su mujer, y a Lot hijo de su hermano, y todos sus bienes que habían ganado y las personas que habían adquirido en Harán, y salieron para ir a tierra de Canaán; y a tierra de Canaán llegaron.6 Y pasó Abram por aquella tierra hasta el lugar de Siquem, hasta el encino de More; y el cananeo estaba entonces en la tierra. 7 Y apareció Jehová a Abram, y le dijo: A tu descendencia daré esta tierra. Y edificó allí un altar a Jehová, quien le había aparecido.

Poderia me ferir ao tentar acompanhá-lo? Confiar nele apenas por ele conhecer o caminho? Quando começamos, fiquei mais preocupado, pois a trilha era difícil, serpenteava uma floresta densa em terreno irregular. Felizmente, Bruno foi me guiando e avisando sobre as dificuldades a superar. Talvez tenha sido assim nos tempos bíblicos, quando as pessoas entravam em território desconhecido: Abraão em Canaã, os israelitas no deserto e os discípulos de Jesus em sua missão de pregar as boas-novas. Eles não tinham ideia de como seria a jornada, exceto que certamente ela seria difícil. Mas eles tinham Alguém que os orientava e conhecia o caminho a seguir. Eles confiaram que Deus lhes daria forças para enfrentar e que cuidaria deles. Podiam segui-lo porque o Senhor sabia exatamente o que estava por vir. Essa garantia confortou Davi quando ele estava fugindo. Apesar da grande incerteza, Davi disse a Deus: “Quando estou abatido, somente tu sabes o caminho que devo seguir” (SALMO 142:3). Haverá momentos na vida em que temeremos o que está por vir. Mas nós sabemos disto: nosso Deus, que caminha conosco, conhece o caminho.   Por: LESLIE KOH

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== LECCIÓN DE ESCUELA SABÁTICA         III TRIMESTRE DEL 2025Narrado por: Eddie RodriguezDesde: Guatemala, GuatemalaUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchMARTES 26 DE AGOSTOEL PLAN ORIGINAL DE DIOS Lee Éxodo 23:20 al 33. ¿Qué métodos quiso utilizar Dios para conquistar la Tierra Prometida? La intención de Dios no era que los israelitas lucharan por su nuevo territorio, sino que este les sería otorgado. La Tierra Prometida había sido prometida a Abraham, Isaac y Jacob, y debería haber sido recibida por Israel como un regalo especial de Dios.El modelo para la conquista de la Tierra Prometida se hizo patente durante el cruce del Mar Rojo. Dios luchó por su pueblo y le concedió la victoria total sobre quienes pretendían destruirlo (Éxo. 14:13, 14). Los egipcios fueron derrotados porque el Señor intervino milagrosamente. Del mismo modo, en tiempos del rey asirio Senaquerib, Dios también derrotó al vasto ejército asirio, fuertemente equipado y bien entrenado, sin que los israelitas tuvieran que luchar. Dios les concedió la victoria porque el rey Ezequías creyó en la palabra de Dios que le fue comunicada por el profeta Isaías (2 Rey. 19:35; Isa. 37:36). Dios informó a Abraham que la Tierra Prometida no sería entregada inmediatamente a su posteridad, sino recién al cabo de cuatrocientos años (Gén. 15:13-16). ¿Por qué? La razón estaba relacionada con la maldad de los habitantes de Canaán. Dios estaba obrando misericordiosamente con ese pueblo y les concedió otro período de gracia para que se arrepintieran. Sin embargo, ellos continuaron en su rebelión contra Dios y sus valores, así que cuando la iniquidad de esas naciones alcanzó su clímax, Dios se dispuso a entregar su territorio a los hebreos como una nueva patria. Además, Dios prometió que expulsaría a las naciones delante de Israel usando dos métodos inusuales pero muy efectivos: (1) infundiendo temor a las naciones malvadas, y (2) con avispas que ahuyentarían a la gente. Antes de que los israelitas llegaran al nuevo territorio, sus enemigos abandonarían el lugar y huirían de ellos (Éxo. 23:27, 28). El papel crucial en la conquista de la Tierra Prometida lo desempeña el Ángel de Dios. Este Mensajero era Cristo, quien guiaba a Israel y los protegía. Él era la columna de nube que los guiaba de día y la columna de fuego durante la noche. Israel debía prestarle mucha atención y escucharlo porque tenía autoridad divina (Éxo. 23:21). El desafío a la voluntad de Dios y la incredulidad respecto de su liderazgo complicarían el avance del pueblo. ¿Qué nos enseña acerca de la gracia de Dios el hecho de que concedió muchos años a los paganos para que abandonaran sus malos hechos? A su vez, ¿qué nos enseña eso acerca de los límites de su gracia hacia quienes se niegan a aceptarla? 

Josué é chamado para viver um grande desafio e liderar o povo de Deus num novo ciclo de sua história. Moisés, o grande líder que libertou o povo e o conduziu por 40 anos no deserto havia morrido. A entrada em Canaã representaria uma grande disruptura na vida de uma geração que havia nascido no deserto. Mas Deus desafia Josué a não temer e confiar plenamente em sua orientação e palavra. ≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈ Comunidade Presbiteriana Chácara Primavera contemporânea • criativa • acolhedora • transformadora http://chacara.org https://facebook.com/chacaraprimavera/ https://instagram.com/chacaraprimavera/

Full Text of ReadingsTwenty-first Sunday in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 123The Saint of the day is Saint BartholomewSaint Bartholomew’s Story In the New Testament, Bartholomew is mentioned only in the lists of the apostles. Some scholars identify him with Nathanael, a man of Cana in Galilee who was summoned to Jesus by Philip. Jesus paid him a great compliment: “Here is a true Israelite. There is no duplicity in him” (John 1:47b). When Nathanael asked how Jesus knew him, Jesus said, “I saw you under the fig tree” (John 1:48b). Whatever amazing revelation this involved, it brought Nathanael to exclaim, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel” (John 1:49b). But Jesus countered with, “Do you believe because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than this” (John 1:50b). Nathanael did see greater things. He was one of those to whom Jesus appeared on the shore of the Sea of Tiberias after his resurrection (see John 21:1-14). They had been fishing all night without success. In the morning, they saw someone standing on the shore though no one knew it was Jesus. He told them to cast their net again, and they made so great a catch that they could not haul the net in. Then John cried out to Peter, “It is the Lord.” When they brought the boat to shore, they found a fire burning, with some fish laid on it and some bread. Jesus asked them to bring some of the fish they had caught, and invited them to come and eat their meal. John relates that although they knew it was Jesus, none of the apostles presumed to inquire who he was. This, John notes, was the third time Jesus appeared to the apostles. Reflection Bartholomew or Nathanael? We are confronted again with the fact that we know almost nothing about most of the apostles. Yet the unknown ones were also foundation stones, the 12 pillars of the new Israel whose 12 tribes now encompass the whole earth. Their personalities were secondary—without thereby being demeaned—to their great office of bearing tradition from their firsthand experience, speaking in the name of Jesus, putting the Word Made Flesh into human words for the enlightenment of the world. Their holiness was not an introverted contemplation of their status before God. It was a gift that they had to share with others. The Good News was that all are called to the holiness of being Christ's members, by the gracious gift of God. The simple fact is that humanity is totally meaningless unless God is its total concern. Then humanity, made holy with God's own holiness, becomes the most precious creation of God. Saint Bartholomew is the Patron Saint of: Plasterers Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Fr. Daniel Alloy, FSSP has served as Parochial Vicar at Regina Caeli Parish in Houston, Texas since July of 2022. He was ordained in June of 2020. In Today's Show: What happens if the Pope commits a crime in a foreign country? Should we practice traditional customs/reverential gestures when attending a Novus Ordo parish or should we conform to the casual atmosphere there? ​Is it a sin if you and your fiance live in the same house but stay in different rooms? Is it OK for laity to anoint people with sacramental oil that is not the holy oil from the church? What does it mean that some will have greater happiness than others in heaven because some will see God more clearly, as stated in the "Catechism for Adults"? Any tips on making a good confession and examination conscience? I saw some Catholic influencers online telling young couples to have children even if they cannot afford it because God will take care of it. Is this good advice? The power of Last Rites Why did Jesus wait for the “right time” to proclaim the Kingdom? Do we as Catholics believe you have to be Catholic to be saved? How do we get an FSSP apostolate in my city? Can you please explain the practical implications of a sacrament being ‘valid but illicit'? For example, if a suspended priest validly consecrates the Eucharist, should the faithful receive it, or abstain out of respect for canonical order? How should one navigate these gray areas? Would you deem it advisable to tear down advertisements for morally wrong activities on billboards? Obviously without breaking the seal of confession, have you ever had a moment in the confessional that just made you laugh afterward?

Contraste: Abraham y Lot La Biblia nos muestra, en Génesis 13:10-12, un contraste profundo entre dos hombres: Abraham y Lot. Lot alzó sus ojos, vio la llanura del Jordán —verde, fértil, atractiva— y decidió habitar allí. Guiado por lo que veía y sentía, extendió sus tiendas hasta Sodoma, sin imaginar que esa decisión lo llevaría a la ruina. En cambio, Abraham permaneció en Canaán. No era la tierra más fácil: montañosa, rocosa, sin abundante agua; le tocó cavar pozos para sobrevivir. Sin embargo, no peleó, no reclamó su derecho como tío ni guardó rencor. Abraham confió en Dios. ¡Qué contraste tan grande! Lot siguió sus emociones y terminó perdiéndolo todo: su esposa, su fortuna y hasta su dignidad. Abraham, en cambio, se dejó guiar por Dios y recibió bendición. Romanos 8:14 nos recuerda: “Porque todos los que son guiados por el Espíritu de Dios, estos son hijos de Dios.” La pregunta es: ¿qué me guía a mí? ¿Mis emociones, mi razonamiento, mis deseos… o el Espíritu Santo? En Génesis 14 vemos a Lot prisionero de guerra por estar viviendo en el lugar equivocado. Y aun después de ser rescatado por Abraham, ¡volvió a Sodoma! La Palabra dice en Proverbios 14:12: “Hay camino que al hombre le parece derecho; pero su fin es camino de muerte.” ¿Cuántas veces Dios nos ha mostrado que algo no está bien y aun así insistimos en quedarnos en el mismo camino? Abraham, por su parte, no abandonó a su sobrino. Lo rescató, lo defendió y lo ayudó sin cobrarle nada, sin reproches, solo con amor. Por esa actitud, Dios lo bendijo y Abraham respondió reconociendo a Dios con sus diezmos (Génesis 14:18-20). Líderes, aquí hay una lección: no estamos llamados a condenar ni a señalar, sino a amar, a restaurar y a guiar con el corazón de Cristo. En Génesis 15:5, Dios lleva a Abraham fuera y le dice: “Mira los cielos, cuenta las estrellas, si las puedes contar… así será tu descendencia.” Las estrellas eran una señal de que la promesa se cumpliría. Abraham lo creyó y le fue contado por justicia. La pregunta es: ¿crees tú lo que Dios te ha prometido? Daniel 12:3 añade: “Los entendidos resplandecerán como el resplandor del firmamento; y los que enseñan la justicia a la multitud, como las estrellas a perpetua eternidad.” Las estrellas hoy representan a los hijos de Dios que iluminan este mundo con la luz de Cristo. ¿Estás brillando para Dios o te has convertido en un agujero negro que absorbe todo sin reflejar nada?

Just as God rested on the seventh day, satisfied that nothing more needed to be done, so we rest in Christ, knowing the work of making us righteous is already complete. The wedding at Cana, on John's “seventh day,” reminds us that God's rest is not dull idleness, but a joyful celebration rooted in covenant and grace. Our only “work” now is to believe this good news—ceasing from our striving, mixing the word we've heard with faith, and enjoying the life we already have in His name.

The Gospel of John Week 7 Scripture: John 4:31-5:29. Our study this week begins with a look at people beginning to realize that the Jewish Messiah has come, but He has come to be the Savior of all - not just the Jewish people, but ALL people! Jesus has been in Samaria and now returns to Cana where a high official in the government seeks Jesus out to heal his son who is dying.  Jesus heals the man's son and the official and his whole family came to faith in Jesus. 
Pastor talks about the feasts mentioned in the Gospel of John and how each finds its fulfillment in Jesus.  The feast mentioned in John 5:1-3 doesn't specifically mention which feast event is going on at this particular time, but Pastor speculates that it could be the Feast of Trumpets - Rosh Hashanah - the Jewish New Year - a time when the Jewish people are focused on this feast's call to repentance.   As we continue we see Jesus is at the Pool of Bethesda that had 5 colonnades.  Pastor talks about the discovery of this pool in 1890 and shares some photos of his from a visit there in recent years. He also shares additional discoveries and info that are quite interesting regarding deeper insights into the use of this pool and by whom. As Jesus approached the pool, hundreds of people may well have been at the pool.  Jesus says to an invalid of 38 years “Do you want to get well?”  There were many there but Jesus chooses to speak to just one person. Jesus, on this Sabbath Day, tells the man to get up and walk and the man walks away carrying his mat. The religious leaders had added many additional specific regulations to God's Sabbath Day - rest day. They had added 39 additional man made rules and the 39th rule was that carrying a piece of property from 1 location to another location was not allowed and what this man just did in carrying his mat broke their Sabbath regulations.  Jesus had deliberately provoked the religious establishment's petty laws saying in effect “How dare you substitute the goodness of God with your own petty regulations and rules.” And the religious leaders become incensed when they hear it was Jesus that healed him and so now they are after Jesus and they begin to persecute Him and desire to kill Him. Not only had Jesus broken their religious man-made rules by doing the work of healing this man on a Sabbath, but also because Jesus called God His own Father making Himself equal with God.  Jesus claimed deity - Jesus is the Living God come to earth!! Yet they desired to reject this truth!

Many people have come to faith after reading only this book of the Bible.  Scholarly and archeological discoveries in recent decades give us new insight on details in the Gospel of John. We can now understand it as the most Jewish rather than the most “Gentile/Greek” of the Gospels, and when we do that we see many things that we missed before. Our 2 year study of the gospels is great for large group, small group or home group study and can be started at any time!

The fourth and final Gospel is the Book of John written by one of Jesus' disciples by that same name - he is often referred to as the son of Zebedee.  John is also credited with writing First, Second and Third John, often referred to as the Johannine Epistles and the Book of Revelations.  In the first seven chapters of his Gospel, John chronicles Jesus' interaction with John the Baptist, the calling of the first disciples, the wedding at Cana, the cleansing of the temple, the meeting with the Samaritan woman at the well and the feeding of the five thousand.

In this conversation, we're joined by Professor Courtney Friesen, who is Professor of Classics and the Director of Graduate Studies in Classics at the University of Arizona and the author of Reading Dionysus: Euripides' Bacchae and the Cultural Contestations of Greeks, Jews, Romans, and Christians (published by Mohr Siebeck). In our conversation we talk about the Bacchae and its interpretation as well as other legends and myths about Dionysus. This leads us to several topics of relevance in the New Testament, especially the alleged drunkenness at Pentecost in Acts 2 and Jesus turning water to wine at Cana in John 2.

“When the Wine Runs Out: God's Purpose in Your Emptiness” | John 2:1–12In John 2, Jesus' first recorded miracle takes place at a wedding—but the crisis wasn't just that they ran out of wine. It was a prophetic sign of what happens when human joy, strength, and resources run dry.In this teaching, we unpack: • Why God sometimes lets your “wine” run out before He moves • How old religious containers can't produce true life • Why Jesus fills before He transforms • The truth that miracles often happen in motion, not in waiting • How to surrender control and trust God's perfect timingIf you feel like you've reached the end of yourself, this message will help you see your emptiness not as a failure, but as an invitation for God to fill you with something far better than what you lost.The miracle at Cana isn't just about wine—it's about the Savior who turns lack into abundance and shame into joy. The best truly comes after the old runs dry.

Discover how the “third day” in Scripture points to God's ultimate rescue and eternal abundance. From water turned to wine in Cana to the resurrection of Jesus, this message inspires hope, endurance, and joy, reminding us that the best is yet to come—eternity with Him.

Canada's Housing Market Is Hitting a Breaking Point — and the August 2025 numbers prove it.Vancouver home prices have slipped to their lowest level in over two years. Toronto prices? Wiped back to 2020 levels — erasing nearly all the gains from the pandemic boom. Inventory is piling up, sales are stagnant, and in some cases, sellers are watching hundreds of thousands in value disappear.Meanwhile, the rental market — long thought to be untouchable — is cracking. Landlords are offering months of free rent to lure tenants, vacancy rates are climbing, and incentive-adjusted rents are falling fast. Investors are quietly exiting, major developers are hitting pause, and Canada's construction pipeline is suddenly at risk.It's not just housing feeling the pinch. Job vacancies have plunged to an 8-year low, the labour market is weakening at a worrying pace, and more Canadians are putting off retirement entirely — not by choice, but because the rising cost of living has left them with little or nothing to save. The “Bank of Mom & Dad” is under strain, debt is rising among older Canadians, and an entire generation is staring down the possibility of working well into their 70s.In this episode, we break down:The August 2025 Vancouver housing stats — including the first-ever July sales increase over June in history.Why Toronto's home prices are in full reversal mode.How the rental market is shifting — and why that could mean less housing built in the years ahead.The growing economic pressures that are reshaping how Canadians live, work, and retire.The rise in foreclosures and what it signals for the months ahead.This isn't just another market update — it's a snapshot of a housing and economic system under pressure from all sides. Whether you're a homeowner, renter, investor, or simply trying to understand where Canada's economy is headed, this is an episode you can't afford to miss.Watch to the end, then let us know in the comments: Do you think this is the start of a slow decline — or a sharper correction waiting to happen? _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

NOTAS DE ELENAMaterial complementario de la escuela Sabática para adultosNarrado por: Patty CuyanDesde: California, USAUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchSÁBADO DE TARDE, 09 DE AGOSTOEL PAN Y EL AGUA DE VIDAMuchos recuerdan a los israelitas de antaño, y se maravillan de su incredulidad y murmuración, creyendo que ellos no habrían sido tan ingratos; pero cuando se prueba su fe, aun en las menores dificultades, no manifiestan más fe o paciencia que los antiguos israelitas. El Señor les había prometido ser su Dios, hacerlos su pueblo, y guiarlos a una tierra grande y buena; pero siempre estaban dispuestos a desmayar ante cada obstáculo que encontraban en su marcha hacia aquel lugar... Olvidaron su amarga servidumbre en Egipto. Olvidaron las bondades y el poder que Dios había manifestado en su favor al liberarlos de la esclavitud. Olvidaron cómo sus hijos se habían salvado cuando el ángel exterminador dio muerte a todos los primogénitos de Egipto. Olvidaron la gran demostración del poder divino en el mar Rojo. Olvidaron que mientras ellos habían cruzado con felicidad el sendero abierto especialmente para ellos, los ejércitos enemigos, al intentar per-seguirlos, se habían hundido en las aguas del mar. Veían y sentían tan solo las incomodidades y pruebas que estaban soportando, y en lugar de decir: "Dios ha hecho grandes cosas con nosotros, ya que habiendo sido esclavos, nos hace una nación grande", hablaban de las durezas del camino, y se preguntaban cuándo terminaría su tedioso peregrinaje. La historia de la vida de Israel en el desierto fue escrita para beneficio del Israel de Dios hasta el fin del tiempo. El relato de cómo trató Dios a los peregrinos en todas sus idas y venidas por el desierto, en su exposición al hambre, a la sed y al cansancio, y en las destacadas manifestaciones de su poder para aliviarlos, está lleno de advertencias e instrucciones para su pueblo de todas las edades. Las variadas experiencias de los hebreos eran una escuela destinada a prepararlos para su prometido hogar en Canaán. Dios quiere que su pueblo de estos días repase con corazón humilde y espíritu dócil las pruebas a través de las cuales el Israel antiguo tuvo que pasar, para que le ayuden en su preparación para la Canaán celestial (Conflicto y valor, 29 de marzo, p. 94). El pecado de los egipcios estuvo en que habían rehusado la luz que Dios les había enviado tan bondadosamente mediante José. Aunque muchos aceptaron esa luz, de muchos más podría decirse que Dios no estaba en todos sus pensamientos. Y el mensaje enviado para testificarles del desagrado de Dios fue: "Entended ahora esto, los que os olvidáis de Dios, no sea que os despedace, y no haya quien os libre". Cristo murió por cada alma en Egipto, y cada alma debía tener la luz. Los justos no debían ser excluidos de los impíos, sino guardados por el poder de Dios de recibir el moho y la mancha del transgresor (The Youth's Instructor, "God's Representatives [Moses]", 15 de abril, 1897, párr. 7). 

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== LECCIÓN DE ESCUELA SABÁTICA         III TRIMESTRE DEL 2025Narrado por: Miguel PáezDesde: Bogotá, ColombiaUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchVIERNES 08 DE AGOSTOPARA ESTUDIAR Y MEDITAR: Lee el capítulo titulado “El Éxodo” en el libro Patriarcas y profetas, de Elena de White, pp. 286-295. Dios estaba con los israelitas a pesar de la escasa fe de ellos. Deseaba instruirlos y guiarlos a fin de que pensaran y se comportaran como su pueblo elegido. Dios los guio pacientemente y los dirigió a un lugar donde encontrarían menos desafíos. Elena de White dice lo siguiente al respecto: “Los israelitas estaban pobremente preparados para un encuentro con ese pueblo poderoso y belicoso. Tenían un conocimiento muy limitado de Dios y poca fe en él, y se habrían aterrorizado y desanimado. Carecían de armas y no estaban habituados a la guerra; tenían el espíritu deprimido por su prolongada servidumbre, y se hallaban estorbados por las mujeres y los niños, los rebaños y las manadas. Al dirigirlos por la ruta del Mar Rojo, el Señor se reveló como un Dios compasivo y juicioso” (Elena de White, Patriarcas y profetas, p. 287). Acerca del cántico de Moisés, el Comentario bíblico Andrews dice lo siguiente: “La certeza de este acto redentor de Dios en la historia nos asegura que nada tenemos que temer del futuro. La última estrofa se centra en los enemigos futuros que tendrían que ser enfrentados en la conquista de Canaán. Por causa del ‘brazo poderoso' (RVC) de Dios, enmudecerían ‘como una piedra' (v. 16). Cuando enfrentamos certeras imposibilidades, cuando nos sentimos acorralados y no sabemos adónde acudir, podemos encontrar seguridad en ‘el cántico de Moisés', porque conmemora un gran acontecimiento de la historia del pueblo de Dios” (Comentario bíblico Andrews, t. 1, p. 250). PREGUNTAS PARA DIALOGAR: 1. ¿Por qué nos encontramos tan a menudo en la posición de los hebreos después de su increíble liberación de Egipto, pero antes del desafío del Mar Rojo? Es decir, ¿por qué nos sigue resultando tan fácil mostrar y expresar falta de fe a pesar de tantas demostraciones divinas de bondad y amor para con nosotros? 2. ¿Por qué el faraón siguió persiguiendo a Israel después de todo lo sucedido, incluida la muerte de los primogénitos? ¿Qué debería decirnos esto acerca de cuán peligroso es para cualquiera de nosotros endurecerse a causa del pecado o pecar? 3. Aunque todos enfrentamos a veces pruebas terribles, muchos hemos tenido (y seguimos teniendo) días muy buenos y momentos en los que no nos ocurre nada malo a nosotros ni a nuestros seres queridos. ¿Por qué deberíamos considerar esos momentos como una demostración de la gracia y la protección de Dios, sobre todo en vista de que vivimos en territorio “enemigo”? Es decir, ¿por qué deberíamos acordarnos siempre de alabar a Dios en los buenos tiempos, ya que no sabemos de qué calamidades hemos sido librados?

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== LECCIÓN DE ESCUELA SABÁTICA         III TRIMESTRE DEL 2025Narrado por: Miguel PáezDesde: Bogotá, ColombiaUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchMARTES 05 DE AGOSTOEL CRUCE DEL MAR ROJO Lee Éxodo 13:17 a 14:12. ¿Cómo guio Dios a los israelitas cuando salieron de Egipto y qué ocurrió después? En armonía con las instrucciones dadas por Dios a Moisés, los israelitas salieron de Egipto como un ejército bien organizado. Los términos hebreos tsaba' y majaneh, traducidos como “ejércitos”, “escuadrones”, “campamento” y “huestes”, atestiguan esa descripción (Éxo. 6:26; 7:4; 12:17, 41, 51; 14:19, 20; compara con Éxo. 13:18). Los hebreos se dividieron en unidades y marcharon como un ejército. Más tarde, Balaam vio desde las colinas de Moab que Israel estaba “acampando por tribus” (Núm. 24:2, NVI). Mientras tanto, “Moisés llevó consigo los huesos de José” (Éxo. 13:19). Este es un detalle muy importante del texto, y revela el cumplimiento de las promesas de Dios en respuesta a la fe de José, quien nunca perdió de vista la Tierra Prometida aun en medio del esplendor y los privilegios de Egipto. Pidió que sus huesos fueran llevados a la tierra de Canaán (Gén. 50:24, 25). Creía que el Señor visitaría a Israel en Egipto y lo llevaría a la tierra, como había jurado (Heb. 11:22). Cuando Israel llegó a Canaán, los huesos de José fueron sepultados en Siquem (Jos. 24:32). La columna de nube y la de fuego eran los signos visibles de la presencia de Dios entre su pueblo. El Señor habitaba allí y se comunicaba con ellos también desde la nube (Éxo. 14:24; Núm. 12:5, 6). El faraón reveló ahora los verdaderos motivos de su corazón. No estaba convertido y nunca se arrepintió de verdad. Su petición a Dios para que lo bendijera era una farsa, tal vez un autoengaño. Reunió a su ejército y fueron tras sus esclavos fugitivos. ¡Cuán totalmente cegado por el pecado estaba realmente este hombre! Cuando el pueblo vio venir al ejército del faraón, pronunció palabras y expresó sentimientos de los que se harían eco más de una vez: “¿No había sepulcros en Egipto, que nos sacasen a morir en el desierto? ¿Por qué has hecho así con nosotros al sacarnos de Egipto?” (Éxo. 14:11). Aun después de haber visto manifestaciones tan dramáticas del poder de Dios, que incluyeron el libramiento de sus hijos primogénitos, el pueblo seguía mostrando una asombrosa falta de fe. Piensa en la última vez que te enfrentaste a una situación terrible. ¿Cuál fue tu primera reacción: fe en Dios o falta de ella? ¿Qué lecciones deberías haber aprendido de esa situación que podrían ayudarte la próxima vez que enfrentes otra? 

46 So he came again to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And at Capernaum there was an official whose son was ill. 47 When this man heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death. 48 So Jesus said to him, “Unless you[a] see signs and wonders you will not be lieve.”49 The official said to him, “Sir, come down before my child dies.” 50 Jesus said to him, “Go; your son will live.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and went on his way.51 As he was going down, his servants[b] met him and told him that his son was recovering. 52 So he asked them the hour when he began to get better, and they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour[c] the fever left him.” 53 The father knew that was the hour when Jesus had said to him, “Your son will live.” And he himself believed, and all his household. 54 This was now the second sign that Jesus did when he had come from Judea to Galilee.

John 4:46-54 ESV So he came again to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And at Capernaum there was an official whose son was ill. When this man heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death. So Jesus said to him, “Unless you see signs and wonders you will not believe.” The official said to him, “Sir, come down before my child dies.” Jesus said to him, “Go; your son will live.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and went on his way. As he was going down, his servants met him and told him that his son was recovering. So he asked them the hour when he began to get better, and they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.” The father knew that was the hour when Jesus had said to him, “Your son will live.” And he himself believed, and all his household. This was now the second sign that Jesus did when he had come from Judea to Galilee.

At first glance, the command to "honour your father and mother" seems simple—something we associate with childhood obedience and following the rules. But is that all it means?In this episode, we explore the deeper implications of this biblical command through the lens of apologetics. What does it mean to honour our parents as we grow into adulthood? How do we reconcile this command with moments like Jesus' interaction with Mary in the temple—or again at the wedding in Cana? Was His honour expressed through obedience, or was it something richer and more complex?Join us as we unpack the layers of this commandment, moving beyond mere compliance to discover a fuller picture of love, respect, and honour that endures across all seasons of life.

A @Christadelphians Video: ### SummaryIn this video, Stephen Hale discusses the first miracle of Jesus at the Wedding at Cana, where water was turned into wine. He explores the significance of this miracle, the roles of the characters involved, and the deeper meanings behind the actions and symbols presented. Hale emphasises that the miracle represents a transformation process, paralleling the spiritual journey of natural Israel and highlighting the importance of faith in recognising the true nature of Jesus as the Word made flesh.### Highlights-

Send us a textMitchell's fascinating exploration of "Bethany across the Jordan" takes listeners on a geographical detective journey through the Holy Land to uncover where Jesus' baptism truly occurred. What begins with four simple words from Scripture opens up a world of historical investigation that challenges conventional wisdom about this pivotal moment in Christian history.By carefully analyzing the timeline in John's Gospel, Mitchell presents compelling evidence for a northern baptism site near the Sea of Galilee. The rapid succession of events—Jesus returning from temptation, gathering disciples, and attending a wedding in Cana "on the third day"—makes a southern location geographically implausible. A person simply couldn't travel 80+ miles on foot while gathering followers in such a short timespan.The northern theory gains additional significance when connected to other key moments in Jesus' ministry. This region near Mount Hermon is where Jesus later proclaimed his identity at "the gates of Hades" in Caesarea Philippi and was transfigured before his disciples—both featuring divine declarations of Jesus as God's Son, mirroring what occurred at his baptism.Mitchell's approach exemplifies thoughtful biblical scholarship that considers practical realities while remaining faithful to the text. He reminds us that figures like John the Baptist weren't stationary but traveled extensively in their ministry, opening up new possibilities for understanding these sacred locations.Whether you're a dedicated Bible scholar or simply curious about historical Christianity, this episode will transform how you read familiar passages and inspire you to look beyond conventional interpretations to discover deeper meaning in Scripture.Support the showSupport our ministryCheck us out at purefaithliving.comContact us at purefaithliving.com/contactFollow us on twitter @purefaithlivingFollow us on Facebook at Pure Faith Podcast

En esta semana, nos encontramos con Israel en un momento crucial. Los israelitas han cruzado milagrosamente el Jordán y están a las puertas de Jericó, la primera gran batalla en la conquista de Canaán. Pero antes de que Dios les entregue la victoria, les pide que se preparen de manera espiritual.¿Lista para la acción?

  «Así que no se rebelen contra el Señor, ni tengan miedo de la gente de esa tierra. ¡Nosotros nos los comeremos como si fueran pan! No les tengan miedo, que el dios que los protege se ha apartado de ellos, y con nosotros está el Señor» (Números 14:9) Hace miles de años, Dios le dijo al pueblo de Israel que subieran y ocuparan la Tierra que les había dado. Les ordenó que la tomaran por la fuerza, y sin temor de los impíos que moraban allí. Él todavía nos dice lo mismo. Dios aún desea que como Su pueblo, tomemos la buena Tierra que nos ha dado. Él todavía trata de que usemos el poder que nos ha dado para echar al maligno fuera. Esta Tierra no le pertenece al diablo, le pertenece a Dios (Salmos 24:1). El diablo sólo se instaló en este mundo, y ha tomado el control porque nosotros los creyentes no se lo hemos impedido. Ése es nuestro trabajo. Jesús le quitó todo derecho legal a Satanás la misma mañana de la Resurrección. Luego nos encomendó que mantuviéramos vigente la derrota de Satanás. Las Escrituras dicen que Jesús se ha sentado a la diestra de Dios, y está esperando que Sus enemigos sean puestos por estrado de Sus pies (Hebreos 10:12-13). ¿Comprendes lo que eso significa? Quiere decir que Jesús espera que le demos un puntapié al diablo y a sus secuaces y los echemos fuera de los asuntos de este mundo. Jesús está esperando que nosotros tomemos la victoria que Él obtuvo en el Calvario y que la establezcamos en esta Tierra. Pero así como Israel tuvo que subir físicamente a tomar la Tierra de Canaán, tú y yo tenemos que subir en el Espíritu si queremos establecer el dominio de Dios sobre la Tierra. Tendremos que actuar. ¡No podremos hacerlo sentados! Escucha: es posible que no lo sepas, pero estamos en guerra. Estamos en una batalla espiritual y estamos ganando. En realidad, si comprendieras lo que ya está establecido en el mundo espiritual, te reirías del diablo cada vez que te mostrara su rostro. Por lo tanto, si el diablo hoy ejerce control sobre algún aspecto de tu vida, de tu iglesia o de tu comunidad, levántate en el Espíritu por medio de la fe, de la oración y de la Palabra, y comienza a recuperar ese territorio. No temas. El diablo no tiene defensa alguna. No tiene ningún arma que pueda prevalecer en contra de ti. El Señor está contigo. ¡Levántate en el Nombre de Jesús y recupera la Tierra!

Se estima que más de mil quinientos millones de personas sintonizaron el mundial de Catar en 2022. Una de las finales más emocionantes de la copa mundial fue el partido entre Francia e Italia en 2006. Más de setecientos millones de espectadores presenciaron cómo el partido permaneció empatado desde los primeros minutos hasta el final, lo que condujo a una prórroga.Fue entonces, cuando apenas restaban diez minutos para concluir la prórroga, que ocurrió algo extraordinario. Zinedine Zidane, el destacado jugador francés que cuatro años atrás había llevado a su país hacia la victoria, se aproximó al defensa italiano Marco Materazzi y le propinó un fuerte cabezazo en el pecho.Materazzi cayó al suelo, el árbitro mostró la tarjeta roja y Zidane tuvo que abandonar el partido. Este incidente puso fin a su carrera como jugador profesional. Los entendidos en materia de fútbol suelen hablar del rico legado y los numerosos triunfos de Zidane. Pero el resto de nosotros, si es que reconocemos su nombre, solo recordamos el cabezazo.Un momento de indisciplina privó a Francia de su mejor jugador durante los momentos más cruciales del partido. La salida de Zidane fue triste, patética y tal vez fue el factor clave para que Francia perdiera la victoria en el mundial. Italia ganó en la tanda de penales 5-3.La tarjeta roja de Zidane nos recuerda que todas las acciones tienen consecuencias, ya sea que se lleven a cabo ante setecientos millones de personas, en la escuela o en el lugar de trabajo, o en la intimidad de nuestro hogar. Adán y Eva comieron del fruto prohibido, recibieron una tarjeta roja y fueron expulsados del Edén (ver Génesis 3). Moisés perdió el control frente a la roca y Dios le prohibió la entrada a Canaán (Números 20: 1-13). Siglos más tarde, Judas Iscariote traicionó a Jesús por treinta monedas y ello le costó la salvación y la vida.Un momento de indisciplina, una mala decisión puede hacernos perder aquello lo que nos hemos esforzado tanto. Por eso hemos de colocar cada momento de nuestras vidas, cada decisión, cada pensamiento, sentimiento y emoción en las manos de Jesús. Solo así aseguraremos el mejor resultado aquí en esta vida y en la eternidad. 

The Gospel of John Week 4 Scripture: John 2:1-22, Genesis 1:10 & 12, Isaiah 62:5, Isaiah 25:6-9 Today's study starts with the story of a wedding at Cana in Galilee and the text opens with “On the third day.”  The first day is Sunday, the second day of the week is Monday and the third day is Tuesday.  The wedding is happening on a Tuesday. Why is the wedding on Tuesday? The answer is because of what we read in Genesis 1:10 and 12 where God declared everything as good, not once but twice on the third day of creation and the rabbis said the third day is an especially good day - what a great day for marriages! So orthodox Jewish people have set their wedding dates on Tuesdays going back to Biblical times. Mary, Jesus' mother is at this wedding, too. They are most likely into the 4th or more day of the wedding feast. (They typically lasted a week or longer). And they run out of refreshment and Mary lets Jesus know they have run out of wine. Mary then tells the servants to “do whatever He tells you.”  This is a word for us today - to do what Jesus tells us. We are to listen and obey. Pastor considers the questions: “Isn't this a rather frivolous miracle? Why would Jesus for His first miracle make 150 gallons of wine?”  Let's take a look at this miracle in light of what the Old Testament Scriptures say and what the Jewish people believe: God speaks of Himself as being married to His people. God calls Himself the groom and He gives Himself for His bride (the children of Israel). We reading Isaiah 62:5 "For as a young man marries a young woman, so will your sons marry you; as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride, so will your God rejoice over you." And the Bible talks of wedding feast banquets when Messiah comes. Isaiah 25:6-9 begins with:  “On this mountain the Lord Almighty will prepare     a feast of rich food for all peoples, a banquet of aged wine—     the best of meats and the finest of wines. On this mountain he will destroy     the shroud that enfolds all peoples, the sheet that covers all nations;     he will swallow up death forever.” These are a sample of the verses Jewish people knew and now Jesus performs His first miracle at a wedding! This is not a frivolous miracle - this is Jesus saying: “I am the Bridegroom. I am the One who provides everything you need. I am the One who brings in the wedding feast!”  This miracle points to Jesus as the Messiah! It is a dramatic declaration of Jesus' identity and purpose and going forth Jesus will continually refer to Himself as the Bridegroom and to His people as those who get to be invited to the wedding feast. Pastor shares other great insight into:     1.    Why it's important that the jars where stone and not clay pottery     2.    The use of the word “signs”     3.    The 7 miracles shared in the Gospel of John and how they show Jesus' identity and demonstrate He is the Messiah.     4.    The recent archeological discoveries that go back to the 1st century. Next in our text we read the story of the Temple cleansing where Jesus overturns money changing tables at the Temple.  John is the only gospel that has this story at the beginning of Jesus ministry, the other gospels have it at the end of His ministry. Pastor shares the perspective of there being 2 temple cleansing: 1 at the beginning and.another at the end of Jesus' ministry. Other interesting points     ⁃    The temple was to be a house of prayer - not a market place     ⁃    Money changing was being done where worship was supposed to be happening     ⁃    Tyrian Stater - 1/2 shekel temple tax     ⁃    Pastor shares a detailed description of the Temple in Jesus' day and does a dating of events in conjunction with the building of the temple and Jesus' ministry     ⁃    Pastor suggests a book by Jack Finnegan, “Handbook of Biblical Chronology” Our reading today ends with John 2:20-21 where we read that Jesus knows what is in our hearts. He can see into our very souls. We cannot con Jesus. He is the Living God come to earth and we cannot fool Him.   Pastor ends today's class with a look at the Feasts of the Lord celebrated by the Jewish people and how the festivals point us to understanding their connection to who Jesus is: The Fulfillment of each festival.

Many people have come to faith after reading only this book of the Bible.  Scholarly and archeological discoveries in recent decades give us new insight on details in the Gospel of John. We can now understand it as the most Jewish rather than the most “Gentile/Greek” of the Gospels, and when we do that we see many things that we missed before. Our 2 year study of the gospels is great for large group, small group or home group study and can be started at any time!
