Thy Strong Word kicks off the new year by dedicating our time to study "The Magnificent 37: The Miracles of Jesus." Christ didn't just speak the Word; He demonstrated it with power. From the quiet intimacy of water turning to wine at Cana to the earth-shaking reality of the empty tomb, the Gospels record thirty-seven distinct moments where Jesus suspended the laws of nature to reveal the power of his grace. This isn't just a list of "neat tricks" from history. It is a systematic walkthrough of how God breaks into our broken world to fix it. Why did Jesus curse a fig tree? Why did He need mud to heal a blind man? What does the coin in the fish's mouth teach us about being citizens of heaven and earth?  Host, Pastor Phil Booe and a lineup of guest pastors will take you through each event, verse by verse. We'll move past the Sunday School summary and get into the meat of the text, including the Old Testament connections, the cultural context, and the immediate comfort these signs bring to your life today.   Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

The account of Jesus' first recorded miracle begins with the observation: “They have no more wine” (v. 3) and ends with the host declaring, “you have saved the best [wine] till now” (v. 10)! With the arrival of Jesus, comes a time of miracles—signs—that the old wine is no more and the new wine of god's grace and mercy has arrived. Christ is the Word, spoke the Word, and demonstrated it with power. From the quiet intimacy of water turning to wine at Cana to the earth-shaking reality of the empty tomb, the Gospels record thirty-seven distinct moments where Jesus suspended the laws of nature to reveal the power of his grace. This episode begins at the beginning with the Wedding at Cana but also covers when Jesus healed Peter's mother-in-law in Matthew 8:14–17.  The Rev. Dr. Mark Femmel, pastor of Zion Lutheran Church in Maryland Heights, MO, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study John 2:1–11 and Matthew 8:14–17.  To learn more about Zion in Maryland Heights, visit zionmh.org.

Pastor Derek Walker of the Oxford Bible Church delves into the 2nd sign miracle in the Gospel of John: the healing of the nobleman's son at the point of death by His word over a distance of 25 miles (John 4:46-54). This encounter revealed the kind of faith God wants to see in us. Through this miracle, learn about the importance of faith, the power of Jesus' word, and how signs and wonders are meant to lead believers to a deeper trust in Christ. Explore how Jesus' miracles were more than just acts of healing—they were messages intended to inspire faith in His teachings.

We begin our new series by looking at Jesus first miracle in Cana, as Pastor David Hughes teaches on obedience, faith, and trusting Jesus even when the outcome is not yet clear.

What is it like to be a Christian in Israel—and why do many Israeli Christians insist, "We are not Arabs"? In this eye-opening episode of Shoulder to Shoulder, Rabbi Pesach Wolicki and Pastor Doug Reed speak with Lieutenant Colonel (Reserves) Ihab Shlayan, the IDF's most senior Christian officer and founder of Christian Voice in Israel. Shlayan shares a frank, ground-level account of how Christian communities in places like Nazareth and Cana have steadily become minorities in their own historic towns—and why he says the greatest threat to Christians in the region is not the State of Israel, but Islamist intimidation and Arab political control.  He also lays out five concrete demands he's pressing with the Israeli government: recognition of Christians as a distinct community (not "Arab"), equal access to scholarships and employment benefits for those who serve, a separate Christian education framework, visible Israeli civic presence (including flags) in Christian towns, and proper representation and memorial recognition for Christian IDF soldiers.  Whether you've heard claims that Christians are "second-class citizens" in Israel—or you've never considered the internal pressures facing Christians in the Holy Land—this conversation delivers rare clarity from someone who has lived it in uniform, in public advocacy, and on the front lines.  

MIÉRCOLES 31 DE DICIEMBRE DE 2025 TU DOSIS DIARIA DE ESPERANZA "Y alzó Lot sus ojos, y vio toda la llanura del Jordán, que toda ella era de riego, como el huerto de Jehová, como la tierra de Egipto en la dirección de Zoar, antes que destruyese Jehová a Sodoma y a Gomorra. Entonces Lot escogió para sí toda la llanura del Jordán; y se fue Lot hacia el oriente, y se apartaron el uno del otro. Abram acampó en la tierra de Canaán, en tanto que Lot habitó en las ciudades de la llanura, y fue poniendo sus tiendas hasta Sodoma." (Génesis 13:10-12) Indudablemente que Abraham amaba a su sobrino. Lo llevó con él al salir de su tierra para cumplir con el plan de Dios para su vida. Pero, cuando hubo diferencias entre los trabajadores de ambos, Lot pidió lo que le pareció mejor para él; su tío le dio esa oportunidad. ¿Cuántos hay que toman decisiones sin tener en cuenta a otros y se dejan llevar por la codicia? ¿Cuántos no analizan sus decisiones y no se interesan en lo que "no se ve" y lo que hay detrás de una aparente riqueza? ¿Cuántos, por ambición caen en una Sodoma que ya estaba programada por Dios a desaparecer por la abundancia de pecados en contra de la naturaleza humana, afectando la estabilidad y formación de la familia? Tomar en cuenta a Dios antes de decidir puede traernos un 2026 lleno de bendiciones. Recordemos que Él ve lo que nosotros no vemos.

In this week's episode, The Obedient Heart, we turn to John 2:1–11 and witness Jesus' first miracle at the wedding in Cana, where obedience opens the door to God's glory. As a simple problem meets unwavering trust, we see the power of identifying our need, asking Jesus for help, and doing whatever He says. From empty jars to overflowing wine, this passage reminds us that when we respond with obedience, Jesus reveals His glory—and invites us to see, believe, and trust Him more deeply.Support the showFind us at!

Bom dia 247_ Silvinei em cana_ STF na mira _27_12_25_ by TV 247

Moisés llamado en la tradición judia Moshe Rabbenu es el profeta más importante para el judaísmo. Es una de las figuras centrales de la Biblia, venerado en las tradiciones judía, cristiana e islámica. Su vida, narrada principalmente en el Éxodo, Levítico, Números y Deuteronomio, está rodeada de elementos históricos, religiosos y legendarios. Según el relato bíblico, Moisés nació en Egipto en una época en que el faraón había ordenado la muerte de los varones hebreos recién nacidos. Su madre lo escondió durante tres meses y luego lo depositó en una cesta en el Nilo. Fue rescatado por la hija del faraón, quien lo adoptó y lo educó en la corte egipcia, aunque su nodriza fue su propia madre. Ya adulto, Moisés mató a un egipcio que maltrataba a un hebreo, por lo cual huyó a la tierra de Madián. Allí se casó con Séfora, hija del sacerdote Jetro, y trabajó como pastor. Mientras pastoreaba, tuvo la experiencia de la zarza ardiente en el monte Horeb: Dios se le reveló como “Yo Soy” y lo envió a liberar al pueblo de Israel de la esclavitud en Egipto. Con la ayuda de su hermano Aarón, enfrentó al faraón. Tras una serie de plagas enviadas por Dios, el faraón permitió la salida de los hebreos. Moisés condujo al pueblo a través del mar Rojo, que se abrió milagrosamente para darles paso, y luego por el desierto hacia la Tierra Prometida. En el monte Sinaí recibió las Tablas de la Ley (los Diez Mandamientos), que se convirtieron en el fundamento de la alianza entre Dios e Israel. Moisés actuó como legislador, guía espiritual y mediador entre el pueblo y Yahvé. Durante 40 años, Moisés condujo a los israelitas por el desierto, soportando rebeliones y crisis de fe. Por un acto de desobediencia a Dios en las aguas de Meribá, no se le permitió entrar en la Tierra Prometida. Murió en el monte Nebo, frente a Canaán, y fue enterrado en un lugar desconocido. Moisés es recordado como profeta, legislador y libertador. Representa la lucha contra la opresión, la fidelidad a Dios y la fundación del pueblo de Israel como comunidad religiosa y moral. En el cristianismo se le considera prefiguración de Cristo, y en el islam es reconocido como uno de los grandes profetas.

The Great Bridegroom brings joy to a wedding feast at Cana 1. A mother's problem 2. A miraculous provision

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== LECCIÓN DE ESCUELA SABÁTICA         IV TRIMESTRE DEL 2025Narrado por: Eddie RodriguezDesde: Guatemala, GuatemalaUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchVIERNES 26 DE DICIEMBREPARA ESTUDIAR Y MEDITAR: Lee las páginas 560-563 del capítulo “Las últimas palabras de Josué” en el libro Patriarcas y profetas de Elena de White. “Entre las multitudes que salieron de Egipto había muchos que habían sido adoradores de ídolos; y tal es el poder del hábito, que la práctica continuó secretamente, hasta cierto punto, aun después del establecimiento en Canaán. Josué era consciente de la existencia de este mal entre los israelitas, y percibía claramente los peligros que derivarían de ello. Deseaba fervientemente ver una reforma completa entre la hueste hebrea. Sabía que a menos que el pueblo decidiera servir al Señor de todo corazón, seguiría separándose cada vez más de él. […] Aunque una parte de la hueste hebrea estaba constituida por adoradores realmente espirituales, muchos eran meros formalistas; ningún celo ni seriedad caracterizaban su servicio. Algunos eran idólatras de corazón que se habrían avergonzado de reconocerse como tales” (Elena de White, “Joshua's Farewell Address”, Signs of the Times, 19 de mayo de 1881, p. 1). “Este pacto solemne fue registrado en el libro de la ley para ser preservado sagradamente. Josué erigió entonces una gran piedra debajo de una encina que estaba junto al Santuario del Señor y dijo a todo el pueblo: ‘Esta piedra será testigo. Ha oído todas las palabras que el Señor les habló; será testigo contra ustedes, para que no mientan a su Dios' (Jos. 24:27). Aquí Josué declaró claramente que sus instrucciones y advertencias dirigidas al pueblo no eran sus propias palabras, sino las de Dios. Esta gran piedra daría testimonio a las generaciones venideras acerca del acontecimiento que conmemoraba, y sería un testimonio contra el pueblo en caso de que cayera nuevamente en la idolatría” (Elena de White, “The Stone of Witness”, Signs of the Times, 26 de mayo de 1881, p. 1). PREGUNTAS PARA DIALOGAR:1. Analiza el significado de la expresión “Él [el Señor] es Dios santo, Dios celoso” (Jos. 24:19). ¿En qué sentido es él un Dios celoso? 2. ¿Cómo se relaciona nuestro amor a Dios con la libertad de elección que él nos concede? Es decir, ¿podríamos amar de verdad si no tuviéramos verdadera libertad? ¿Puede el verdadero amor ser forzado? Si no es así, ¿por qué no? 3. ¿De qué maneras prácticas pueden los líderes actuales de la iglesia pasar la antorcha a la siguiente generación? 4. Piensa en la vida de Josué y en el hecho de que los israelitas sirvieron al Señor a lo largo de su vida. ¿Qué conclusión te gustaría que la gente extrajera de tu vida?

NOTAS DE ELENAMaterial complementario de la escuela Sabática para adultosNarrado por: Patty CuyanDesde: California, USAUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchDOMINGO, 21 DE DICIEMBRE¡ESTUVISTE ALLÍ!El pueblo en general tardaba mucho en completar la obra de expulsar a los paganos. Las tribus se habían dispersado para ocupar sus posesiones, el ejército había sido disuelto, y se miraba como empresa difícil y dudosa el reanudar la guerra. Pero Josué declaró: "Jehová vuestro Dios las echará de delante de vosotros, y las lanzará de vuestra presencia: y vosotros poseeréis sus tierras, como Jehová vuestro Dios os ha dicho. Esforzaos pues mucho a guardar y hacer todo lo que está escrito en el libro de la ley de Moisés, sin apartaros de ello ni a la diestra ni a la siniestra". Josué puso al mismo pueblo como testigo de que, siempre que ellos habían cumplido con las condiciones, Dios había cumplido fielmente las promesas que les hiciera. "Reconoced, pues, con todo vuestro corazón, y con toda vuestra alma, que no se ha perdido una sola palabra de las buenas palabras que Jehová vuestro Dios había dicho de vosotros", les dijo. Les declaró, además, que así como el Señor había cumplido sus promesas, así cumpliría sus amenazas. "Mas será, que como ha venido sobre vosotros toda palabra buena que Jehová vuestro Dios os había dicho, así también traerá Jehová sobre vosotros toda palabra mala... Cuando traspasareis el pacto de Jehová, ... el furor de Jehová se inflamará contra vosotros, y luego pereceréis de aquesta buena tierra que él os ha dado" (Historia de los patriarcas y profetas, pp. 559, 560). Abraham no tuvo posesión en la tierra, "ni aun para asentar un pie". Hechos 7:5. Poseía grandes riquezas y las empleaba en honor de Dios y para el bien de sus prójimos; pero no consideraba este mundo como su hogar. El Señor le había ordenado que abandonara a sus compatriotas idólatras, con la promesa de darle la tierra de Canaán como posesión eterna; y sin embargo, ni él, ni su hijo, ni su nieto la recibieron. Cuando Abraham deseó un lugar donde sepultar sus muertos, tuvo que comprarlo a los cananeos. Su única posesión en la tierra prometida fue aquella tumba cavada en la peña en la cueva de Macpela. Pero Dios no faltó a su palabra; ni tuvo esta su cumplimiento final en la ocupación de la tierra de Canaán por el pueblo judío... Abraham mismo debía participar de la herencia... Y la Sagrada Escritura enseña expresamente que las promesas hechas a Abraham han de ser cumplidas mediante Cristo... Dios dio a Abraham una vislumbre de esta herencia inmortal, y con esta esperanza, él se conformó. "Por fe habitó en la tierra prometida como en tierra ajena, morando en cabañas con Isaac y Jacob, herederos juntamente de la misma promesa: porque esperaba ciudad con fundamentos, el artífice y hacedor de la cual es Dios". Hebreos 11:9, 10. De la descendencia de Abraham dice la Escritura: "Conforme a la fe murieron todos estos sin haber recibido las promesas, sino mirándolas de lejos, y creyéndolas, y saludándolas, y confesando que eran peregrinos y advenedizos sobre la tierra". Tenemos que vivir aquí como "peregrinos y advenedizos", si deseamos la patria "mejor, es a saber, la celestial" (Historia de los patriarcas y profetas, pp. 166, 167). 

"It's better to be a mystic and to be different because if being a mystic means you see the invisible, hear the inaudible, and feel the intangible, then I want to be a mystic." —Prophet Paul Cain

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today's episode, Hunter invites you to join him on this December 18th journey through the Scriptures as we approach the end of the year. Together, you'll dive into John chapters 2 through 4, witnessing Jesus' miraculous signs—from turning water into wine at the wedding feast in Cana, to healing the official's son with just a word, and his transformative conversation with the Samaritan woman at the well. More than just recounting stories, Hunter encourages us to look for the deeper signs that all point to Christ as the source of hope, joy, and transformation in our lives. As we move through this Advent season, Hunter reminds us that the incarnation of Jesus is both a sign of God's immeasurable love and a statement of our value in His eyes. The episode wraps up with a time of prayer, reflection, and gratitude for the Daily Radio Bible community. Whether you're new to the podcast or a longtime listener, today's reading and reflections are sure to encourage your heart and help you see Jesus afresh in this season. So grab your Bible, settle in, and experience a transformative encounter with the God who is always with you. TODAY'S DEVOTION: All the signs are pointing to Him. We see it at the wedding feast, where Jesus turns water into wine. And we see it again in the healing of the government official's son—where, simply by Jesus' word, a boy is healed, a fever is gone, and a prayer is answered. Every sign in these stories draws our attention to Christ Himself. All the signs, not just in these chapters but throughout the gospel, are pointing to Him as the source and fulfillment of our hope. As we move through this Advent season, the days leading up to Christmas, may we remember that every sign, every symbol, every hope is pointing to Jesus. He is our wedding feast. He is the One who turns our ordinary water into extraordinary wine. He is the One who responds to the deep cries of our hearts. In Him, our longings meet their answer. The Gospel of John reveals Him, over and over again, in powerful signs and wonders—but those signs are not the point. They are arrows directing us to the One who gives life. During Advent, may our eyes and hearts be open to recognize Him afresh. Emmanuel—God with us—has come. He has not only identified with us by taking on our humanity but has also embraced us so that we might share in the very life and joy He has with the Father, through the Spirit. This is the depth of His love, and in that love, we find our true value—how deeply we are loved and cherished by God. Let us pray for eyes to see the signs and hearts to believe what they show us: that all is pointing to Jesus, to His love, His sacrifice, His inclusion of us into God's very life. That is my prayer for my own soul, for my family, and for you. May we see all the signs, and may they always lead us to Him. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL  

Last time, we explored Veronese's dazzling Wedding Feast at Cana a Venetian marvel painted for a monastery refectory and admired there for over two hundred years. Today, we follow the painting into a very different world: war, politics, plunder, restoration disasters, and an ongoing question of art crimes and restoration.

It's easy to have hope when the story feels like it's on track. But what do we do when our expectations collapse… even when we're holding onto real promises from a good God? In this message, Blaire walks through the whole arc of Mary's story — not just the Christmas moment — and shows how hope gets tested, refined, and sometimes derailed by timing, misunderstanding, pressure, and pain. From the angel's promise (“no word from God will ever fail”) to the wedding at Cana, to the moment Mary tries to “take charge” of Jesus, and finally to standing near the cross, we see a pattern: When hope gets shaky, go to Jesus… and keep going to Jesus. Big Idea: Biblical hope isn't rooted in our preferred outcomes. It's rooted in God's character — the expectation that God will do something good because God is good. Key Scriptures: Luke 1:26–38, 42–55; Luke 2:41–51; John 2:1–11; Mark 3:21, 31–35

John 12:20-36,Now among those who went up to worship at the feast were some Greeks. 21 So these came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and asked him, “Sir, we wish to see Jesus.” 22 Philip went and told Andrew; Andrew and Philip went and told Jesus. 23 And Jesus answered them, “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. 24 Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. 25 Whoever loves his life loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. 26 If anyone serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there will my servant be also. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.27 “Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this hour'? But for this purpose I have come to this hour. 28 Father, glorify your name.” Then a voice came from heaven: “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.” 29 The crowd that stood there and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken to him.” 30 Jesus answered, “This voice has come for your sake, not mine. 31 Now is the judgment of this world; now will the ruler of this world be cast out. 32 And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.” 33 He said this to show by what kind of death he was going to die. 34 So the crowd answered him, “We have heard from the Law that the Christ remains forever. How can you say that the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man?” 35 So Jesus said to them, “The light is among you for a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, lest darkness overtake you. The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going. 36 While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light.”When Faye delivered our first child, I wasn't ready. I mean no one's ever really ready, right, but I really wasn't ready. After our son was born, Faye was wiped out and fell asleep. The nurse came in to give us the “bad news” that there weren't any postpartum rooms available. I say “bad news” because our delivery room was big and beautiful and comfortable, and the postpartum rooms at this hospital were fine but tiny. She wasn't really giving us bad news. She was just being courteous and notifying us about the change. But the only place I had ever heard the word “postpartum” was with postpartum depression (again, I wasn't ready). So I looked over at my sleeping wife and then said to the nurse, “Oh, you know she seems pretty happy right now, I don't think she'll need a postpartum room.” The nurse stared at me blankly for a second, and then said, “Okaaay, that's great. . . .” In my mind, a woman had her baby and got to hold her baby, the baby she has carried and waited for all these months, and then immediately fell into some horrible depression. And so they must have these brightly colored rooms, with comfy pillows and happy music, to cheer her up — a postpartum room. The hour came, and I wasn't ready. I believe that's something like what's happening in these verses. Jesus's hour has been months in coming, years in coming, really centuries in coming — and yet when the hour finally comes, even his closest friends aren't ready. The hour has come in the Gospel of John, the eleven-chapter pregnancy is ending, and the people are ready for a king to be born, but they don't know what it really means for him to be king. They don't know what kind of king he is.And my prayer has been that God would make us more ready than they were, more ready than I was in that delivery room a little more than nine years ago. The Hour Has ComeOkay, John 12:20–36, this is a big moment in the Gospel of John. This is the hour. John wants us to know that something has changed in the story, and I know that because he's been telling us that this moment would come. Back in chapter 2, during the wedding in Cana, when Mary tells Jesus that they had run out of wine, Jesus said to her, “Woman, what does this have to do with me? My hour has not yet come” (John 2:4).Then in chapter 4, with the woman at the well, Jesus says, “The hour is coming . . . when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth . . .” (John 4:23).Then in chapter 7, during the confrontation at the Feast of Booths, Jesus claims to be sent by the Father, and “so they were seeking to arrest him, but no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come” (John 7:30).John's telling us: an hour is coming, an hour is coming, an hour is coming, and then here in John 12, Jesus says . . . now. “The hour has come.” Verse 23:“The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. . . .”The time has come. And we should ask — he wants us to ask — the time for what? What hour is this? I believe that's what our passage is all about this morning. Jesus is going to tell us what time it is, and he's going to prepare us for that hour. He unpacks the hour for us in four ways (and those are my four points).1. An Hour for GlorySo what is the hour? What time is it? The clearest answer is in the same sentence, John 12:23,“The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. . . .”So, point one, this is an hour for glory. Now, as Pastor David showed us last week, the people expected the Messiah to come in glory — to finally defeat all their enemies and take his throne as king. And they weren't totally wrong! The humble, unattractive man they saw ride in on the donkey is glorious. All along the way, we've seen glimpses of his glory, like when he turned the water into wine. “This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee,” John says, “and manifested his glory” (John 2:11). Or when he healed the paralytic, or fed the five thousand, or gave the blind man new eyes. This Son has been glorious all along and yet the hour has now come, the verse says, for him to be glorified. What does that mean? It means that the glory we have only seen in bursts and glimpses — bursts and glimpses like calming a terrible storm or raising the dead — the glory that the Son has had from eternity past, that glory will now break forth in full dawn before our eyes. The Son of God came in the flesh, in a manger, in the small, obscure town of Bethlehem, and then he lived in darkness, he took on and bore our darkness, and now he's going to rise above the darkness and reveal who he really is. We're about to see the sunrise in the Gospel of John. Jesus is going to pull the veil back from all of his unlimited power, wisdom, and worth. This is the hour. We've gotten these tastes in the story — glorious tastes — but only just tastes, and now Jesus has announced the full meal has finally arrived. And the people were so hungry. They had waited for so long. Their parents had prayed for a king, and their grandparents, and their parents before them. And now they're under the heavy hand of Roman rule, with vicious soldiers and cruel taxes and public executions for those who resist. And into all of that darkness, Jesus says, “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. . . .” It's time for the king to be king. We've seen these rays of light in his miracles, but now the sun's going to rise in full strength. Morning's coming. This is his hour.The Son and the FatherOne of the reasons we know something has changed in the Gospel of John is that Jesus is suddenly talking about his own glory. Up until now he's been focused on the glory of the Father. “I do not seek my own glory,” John 8:30, “there is One who seeks it, and he is the judge.” Or 7:18: “The one who speaks on his own authority seeks his own glory; but the one who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true.” But now, the hour comes for the Son to be glorified. Even here, though, in the hour of the Son's glory, look how Jesus prays: “Father, glorify your name.” Verse 27:“Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this hour'? But for this purpose I have come to this hour. 28 Father, glorify your name.”My hour's coming and I know what I have to do. Should I pray and ask the Father to spare me from the thorns, the nails, the wrath? No, this is why I came. I came for the glory of my Father. And so he prays, “Father, even in my hour of glory, glorify your name.” And how does the Father respond? He glorifies the Son, next verse:Then a voice came from heaven: “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.” The Father's actually speaking to two audiences here. First, to Jesus: “I have already glorified my name in you these last thirty years (and in all the endless years before that), and now I will glorify my name in you again in this hour.”But there's a second audience here. We know that if we keep reading, verse 29, “The crowd that stood there and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, ‘An angel has spoken to him.' 30 Jesus answered, ‘This voice has come for your sake, not mine.'”The message was for him (only he understood the actual words), but the thunder was for them. This was the Father's way at the end of Jesus's earthly life to say what the Father said at the beginning of his ministry, at his baptism: This thunder booms the chorus, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased” (Matthew 17:5).2. An Hour for AgonySo, the hour is an hour for glory, but that glory doesn't come like the people expected. No, this hour is an hour for glory, but, second, this hour is also an hour of agony. We've already heard this, verse 27: “Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this hour'?”Now you and I already know why Jesus would want to be saved from his hour of glory (and he's tried to tell his disciples what's about to happen), but you can still imagine their confusion. Wait, it's finally time for you to receive your glory as king, and you want the Father to rescue you from that glory? Shouldn't you want your hour of glory? Why is your soul so troubled now?Because he knows that his glory comes through terrible agony. Verse 31,“‘Now is the judgment of this world, now will the ruler of this world be cast out. 32 And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.' 33 He said this to show by what kind of death he was going to die.”So not just agony, but death. For the king to enter his glory, he had to die. This hour is a dying hour. He wants them to get this, and so he holds up something he knows they'll understand, verse 24: “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.”They're ready for the grain of wheat — the seed — to finally bear some fruit. They want the harvest! They're starving for a king and all the good he's going to do for them. And yet he reminds them that for a seed to bear fruit, it has to die first. The plant doesn't die, but everything that makes a seed a seed breaks down and falls away — it dies, it gives everything — so that new life might spring up out of its death. And if that little seed dies, it produces 30, 60, 100, sometimes 300 new grains in its place. That's a miracle. And that's what's happening in this hour.But how could the promised king die? He can't die, right? The crowd is confused, and for good reason, verse 34:“We have heard from the Law that the Christ remains forever. How can you say that the Son of Man must be lifted up?”The Christ was supposed to be different. So many kings have disappointed us and died. The Messiah was supposed to never leave. What they couldn't see yet is that this Messiah reveals his power and glory by dying to save sinners. We needed the cross to see what kind of king he is. That's why this can be an hour of both glory and agony — not just agony and then glory. Because the Good Shepherd dying for his sheep sets him apart from every god the world has ever known. Why is this an hour of agony? God made the universe — wheat and seeds, trees for beams, metal for nails, thorns for crowns — and he wrote out history to highlight the glory of his grace. This is what Ephesians 1 says, that in this Christ, in Jesus, God sets forth “a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and on earth.” And in that plan, he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, so that in him we might have redemption through his blood — through his dying — “to the praise of his glorious grace.” Not just to the praise of his glory (of his power and wisdom and holiness), but to the praise of his glorious grace. And the glorious grace he showed us cost him terrible agony. Even death on a cross.His hour of glory is an hour of agony because his glory is to rescue sinners like you, like me — to the praise of his glorious grace. 3. An Hour for VictoryThis brings us to the third point. This is an hour of terrible agony, but don't mistake his agony, his death for defeat. Don't mistake glory for easy — no, this is going to be excruciatingly hard. He's going to have to die. But don't mistake his dying for losing, either. This is an hour for great agony, but it is also, third, an hour for victory. And this really is how an hour of agony can be an hour of glory. Because it's by extraordinary agony that he achieves his victory. Hear verses 31–32 again: “Now is the judgment of this world; now will the ruler of this world be cast out. 32 And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”I see great victory in these two verses, two great victories actually.First, this is the hour of victory over Satan.“Now is the judgment of this world; now will the ruler of this world be cast out. . . .”Now why did Jesus call Satan “the ruler of this world”? Does that mean Satan is the ruler of this world and God is not? Absolutely not. No, God is the capital-R ruler of this world and every other one. Every ounce of influence Satan has for now, has been granted by God for the glory of God. No, God's working all things and uniting all things, even evil, to the praise of his glorious grace. And one reason he's allowed evil up until this hour, is so that evil could be crushed in this hour.“The ruler of this world is about to be cast out.”But at the cross, doesn't it seem like Satan won? His enemies thought they won. Surely Satan thought he'd won. He never would have done what he did if he'd known what was about to happen. He killed the incarnate Son of God. He killed the Messiah who was supposed to remain forever. And in that moment, in that hour, Satan lost everything. To be clear, he was never in control here, and he was never winning. Jesus told us, just two chapters before, “No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again” (John 10:18). And when he laid it down, he had already won. “Through death,” Hebrews 2:14–15, Jesus destroyed “the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, and [delivered] all those who through fear of death were subject to lifelong slavery.” Does it look like Satan has the upper hand in your life? Are you going through something right now that makes it seem like the ruler of this world is in control of your body . . . or of some painful relationship in your family . . . or of some difficult situation at work? He's not! For a brief time, he's been given a measure of influence in this world and in your life, but he is on a leash. Your Father in heaven rules over the ruler of this world, and so, like the cross . . . your hour of agony can become your hour of greatest spiritual victory. . . .It's so much easier to see this in other people's suffering, right? This hard hour in your life really might be the moment when Jesus's glory and reign will be most obvious through you. That sure sounds like victory over Satan to me.There's a second victory here, though. This hour of agony is also an hour of great victory over unbelief. Where do I see that?“Now is the judgment of this world; now will the ruler of this world be cast out. And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”When I'm lifted up on the cross and killed and abandoned by everyone, then, at that lowest of all moments, I will draw all people to myself. I'll win all my sheep back from sin, death, and shame. I'll make my awful grave my conquering throne.And that's exactly what's happening in these verses! Did you notice in the first verse, verse 20?“Now among those who went up to worship at the feast were some Greeks.”When he says he'll draw “all people” to himself, he doesn't mean every person (we see this clearly because lots and lots of people, then and now, reject him and run away). No, he means all kinds of people from everywhere — Jewish people and non-Jewish people. When this king comes, he's not just winning people from Israel, but from every tribe, tongue, people, and nation. And what does this victory sound like in the moment? It sounds like verse 21, when the Greeks say to Philip,“Sir, we wish to see Jesus.”That's the sound of victory. These people were dead in their trespasses and sins, following the course of this world, trusting the evil ruler of this world, living out the passions of their flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath. But God, “being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved them, even when they were dead in their trespasses, made them alive.” And when mercy did that to them, their desires changed and they said,“Sir, we wish to see Jesus.”Is there any better anthem for Advent? “We wish to see Jesus.” And that brings us to our last point, the fourth way Jesus unpacks this hour.4. An Hour for You This is an hour for glory, for agony, for great victory — this is Jesus's hour. But this isn't only his hour. Fourth, and lastly, this hour is an hour for you.When he's lifted up, he says, he will draw all people to himself — but not all people. Again, they ask him how the Christ could die if he's supposed to remain forever. Now, verse 35:So Jesus said to them, “The light is among you for a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, lest darkness overtake you. The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going. 36 While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light.” Jesus was ready for his hour. The question is are you ready for this hour? Some of you are walking in darkness this morning, and I don't want the darkness to overtake you. While you have the light — he's still inviting you to come! — while you have the light, believe in the light and walk in the light, that you may become forgiven and loved children of light.Now, Jesus warns us that walking in the light will bring some agony. Notice that he doesn't say here, “I'm going to die so that you don't have to.” It's true that those who believe will never face divine judgment for our sins. We'll never experience condemnation. But that doesn't mean we won't have to suffer, verse 25:“Whoever loves his life loses it [he's not talking about himself anymore] and whoever hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.”In other words, if you want to live with me, you're going to have to die with me. You're going to have to pick up a cross to follow me. He bore our greater agony, the judgment we deserved, but he doesn't spare us from all agony in this life. Through that agony, though, we also receive his victory and glory. Next verse:“If anyone serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there will my servant be also. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.”Do you hear that? The Father doesn't only glorify his Son. No, the hour is coming when the Father is going to honor you. For now, we pray like Jesus, in our hours of darkness and heartache, “Father, glorify your name.” And here in these verses, you can almost hear the thunder — the thunder of him responding, “I have glorified my name in you thus far — and I will glorify it again.”Following Jesus will come with some agony. But it will also come with great glory, your glory. The Father will honor you — if you believe in the light and walk in the light. You can't have his victory while you walk in darkness. The one who walks in darkness doesn't know where he's going. Some of you don't know where you're going right now. And the hour's come. Don't let the darkness overtake you. Walk while you have the light.

El éxito nunca debe darse por sentado; siempre está ligado a la obediencia a la Palabra de Dios. Así, la adjudicación de la tierra, además de ser la demostración de la fidelidad de Dios para con Israel (Neh. 9:8), dejaba lugar para un futuro desarrollo que dependería de la actitud de Israel. ¿Sería este capaz de asegurar lo logrado? Lee Josué 23:1-5. ¿Cuáles son los puntos principales de la introducción de Josué? En su discurso, el ya anciano Josué transfiere a su público la finalización de la misión que Dios le había encomendado. Describe cómo fue posible la conquista de la tierra: el Señor luchó por ellos. Aunque, a causa de su infidelidad e incredulidad, los israelitas se vieron envueltos en guerras después del Éxodo, no fue gracias a su poder militar, sino a la intervención de Dios, como consiguieron poseer la tierra. Dios había dado a Israel reposo de sus enemigos, pero quedaban algunas naciones a las que todavía había que desposeer. La victoria no era una realidad consumada e inmutable para Israel, sino una posibilidad siempre presente mediante la confianza constante en la fiel ayuda divina. ¿Qué similitudes existen entre la manera en que los israelitas conquistaron Canaán bajo el liderazgo de Josué y la forma en que los cristianos pueden vivir hoy una vida espiritual victoriosa? Lee Josué 23:10; Colosenss 2:15; 2 Corintios 10:3-5; Efesios 6:11-18. Las victorias de los israelitas no podían ser atribuidas a su fuerza y estrategia. Del mismo modo, la victoria espiritual sobre el pecado y la tentación ha sido asegurada a través del sacrificio y la resurrección de Jesucristo, pero el pueblo de Dios debe hoy confiar constantemente en la habilitación del Espíritu Santo a fin de vivir una vida triunfante. ¿Por qué nos sigue resultando tan fácil pecar a pesar de contar con tantas promesas maravillosas?

[…] La prudencia manifestada por los hijos de Rubén y sus compañeros es digna de imitación. En tanto que se esforzaban sinceramente por hacer progresar la causa de la verdadera religión, fueron juzgados erróneamente y censurados con severidad; pero no manifestaron resentimiento. Escucharon con toda cortesía y paciencia los cargos que sus hermanos les hacían, antes de tratar de defenderse, y luego les explicaron ampliamente sus móviles y demostraron su inocencia. Así se arregló amigablemente la dificultad que amenazaba tener tan graves consecuencias. “Aun cuando se los acuse falsamente, los que están en lo justo pueden permitirse tener calma y ser considerados. Dios conoce todo lo que los hombres no entienden o interpretan mal, y con toda confianza podemos entregarle nuestro caso. Él vindicará la causa de los que depositan su confianza en él tan seguramente como sacó a luz la culpa de Acán. Los que son movidos por el espíritu de Cristo poseerán la caridad, que todo lo soporta y es benigna. “Dios quiere que haya unión y amor fraternal entre su pueblo. En la oración que elevó Cristo precisamente antes de su crucifixión pidió que sus discípulos fueran uno como él era uno con el Padre, para que el mundo creyera que Dios le había enviado. Esta oración conmovedora y admirable llegaba a través de los siglos hasta nuestros días, pues sus palabras fueron: ‘Mas no ruego solamente por éstos, sino también por los que han de creer en mí por la palabra de ellos' (Juan 17:20). Aunque no hemos de sacrificar un solo principio de la verdad, debemos procurar constantemente ese estado de unidad” (Elena de White, Patriarcas y profetas, pp. 557, 558). PREGUNTAS PARA DIALOGAR:1. ¿Cómo puede ayudarnos la exhortación de Pablo a estimar “a los demás como mejores a ustedes mismos” (Fil. 2:3, TLA) a no atribuir maldad infundadamente a nuestros hermanos en la fe? 2. ¿Por qué a menudo reaccionamos de forma exagerada ante una situación debido a nuestros fracasos o errores pasados? ¿Cómo podemos evitar esto? 3. Analiza la importancia de escuchar el punto de vista de los demás. ¿Cómo podemos desarrollar en nuestra iglesia la disposición a escuchar? (Comparar con Sant. 1:19). 4. Vivimos en una sociedad en la que las exigencias de la vida laboral, las responsabilidades familiares, los compromisos relacionados con la iglesia y otras obligaciones pueden parecer abrumadores. ¿Cómo puede el principio de hacer todo como para el Señor no solo hacernos más responsables, sino también darnos tranquilidad?

If you thought the recent theft of the Napoleonic jewels from the Louvre was audacious then just wait for what I have in store for you today because it is one of the biggest, and I mean that literally, the biggest, art thefts in the Louvre's history. Today we are looking at Veronese's Wedding Feast at Cana, a dazzling masterpiece that once filled an entire wall of the monastery of San Giorgio Maggiore in Venice, and was proudly displayed there for more than two centuries, from its completion in 1563 until 1797 when French troops unceremoniously tore it from the wall, rolled it up and shipped it to Paris.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/panamepodcast.

Join Rolf Jacobson, Kathryn Schifferdecker, and Karoline Lewis as they explore Jesus' first miracle in the Gospel of John—the wedding at Cana. This episode unpacks the theological significance of John's "Book of Signs" and what it means that Jesus inaugurates his public ministry not with fasting or wilderness temptation, but with overflowing wine at a celebration.Key Themes Explored:* The Book of Signs: Understanding John's unique structure (chapters 1-12) and how the seven signs point to Jesus' identity and the grace he offers* Grace Upon Grace: How the abundance at Cana—six stone jars holding 20-30 gallons each, filled to the brim with the best wine—embodies John 1:16's promise of grace upon grace* Honor and Shame: The cultural context of first-century Palestinian weddings and how Jesus' intervention saves a family from public disgrace* The Role of Jesus' Mother: Mary's unique presence in John's Gospel, appearing only at the beginning and end of Jesus' public ministry, and her profound recognition of who Jesus is* Signs vs. Miracles: Why John calls these events "signs" (σημεῖα) rather than miracles—they point beyond the act itself to reveal God's presence and powerWhy This Matters for Preaching:The hosts discuss how this narrative offers multiple homiletical directions: the experience of abundance in our lives, the removal of shame through Christ's compassion, and the call to "do whatever he tells you"—a pattern that continues throughout John's Gospel where obedience to Jesus leads to transformation and abundance.Karoline Lewis brings her expertise in Johannine literature to illuminate how this first sign sets the pattern for Jesus' entire ministry in John and how it differs significantly from the synoptic gospels' approach to Jesus' early ministry.

John 2:1–11 (ESV): 2 On the third day there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. 2 Jesus also was invited to the wedding with his disciples. 3 When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus said to him, “They have no wine.” 4 And Jesus said to her, “Woman, what does this have to do with me? My hour has not yet come.” 5 His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.” 6 Now there were six stone water jars there for the Jewish rites of purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons. 7 Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water.” And they filled them up to the brim. 8 And he said to them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the feast.” So they took it. 9 When 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 10 and 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.” 11 This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory. And his disciples believed in him.Subscribe to our channel ► https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5ime97MH0c2Wfooh0Xl87wFor more information about our church visit ► https://biltmorechurch.com/https://www.instagram.com/biltmorechurch/https://www.facebook.com/mybiltmorechurch/https://twitter.com/biltmoreQuestions Jesus Asks ResourcesBelieve in Miracles, But Trust in Jesus – Adrian RogersNot God Enough – J.D. GreearAnything Is Possible – Joby Martin

The sermon unfolds the dual significance of Jesus' actions in John 2—first, the miracle at Cana, which reveals Christ as the source of true spiritual satisfaction, fulfilling the deep longing of the human soul that worldly pursuits cannot fill; and second, His cleansing of the temple, which exposes the danger of outward religious activity devoid of genuine worship, highlighting how God judges the heart, not mere appearances. The passage underscores Christ's identity as the true temple, whose resurrection fulfills His claim to conquer death and establish a redeemed, purified church. The sermon calls believers to worship with reverence, guard against spiritual compromise, and trust in Christ alone as the only Savior whose promises are certain and whose victory over sin and death secures eternal life for all who believe. It concludes with a solemn yet hopeful appeal to the unconverted: only through faith in Christ, not religious performance, can one find salvation and eternal peace.

Esas máximas y tradiciones llegaron a ser un obstáculo para la comprensión y práctica de la religión verdadera. Y cuando vino la Realidad, en la persona de Cristo, no reconocieron en él el cumplimiento de todos sus símbolos, la sustancia de todas sus sombras. Rechazaron a Cristo, el ser a quien representaban sus ceremonias, y se aferraron a sus mismos símbolos e inútiles ceremonias. El Hijo de Dios había venido, pero ellos continuaban pidiendo una señal. Al mensaje: ‘Arrepentíos, que el reino de los cielos se ha acercado', contestaron exigiendo un milagro. El Evangelio de Cristo era un tropezadero para ellos porque demandaban señales en vez de un Salvador. Esperaban que el Mesías probase sus aseveraciones por poderosos actos de conquista, para establecer su imperio sobre las ruinas de los imperios terrenales. Cristo contestó a esta expectativa con la parábola del sembrador. No por la fuerza de las armas, no por violentas interposiciones había de prevalecer el Reino de Dios, sino por la implantación de un nuevo principio en el corazón de los hombres” (Elena de White, Palabras de vida del gran Maestro, pp. 17, 18). “La iglesia necesita fieles Caleb y Josué que estén prontos a aceptar la vida eterna con la única condición que Dios impone: la obediencia. Nuestras iglesias sufren por falta de obreros. Nuestro campo es el mundo. Necesitamos misioneros en las ciudades y los pueblos que están aún más subyugados por la idolatría que los paganos de Oriente, los cuales nunca vieron la luz de la verdad. El verdadero espíritu misionero ha abandonado las iglesias que hacen profesión de manera tan exaltada. El amor por las almas y el deseo de llevarlas al regazo de Cristo ha dejado de brillar en sus corazones. Buscamos trabajadores honestos. ¿Nadie responderá al clamor que se eleva de todos los rincones: ‘Pasa [...] y ayúdanos' (Hech. 16:9)?” (Elena de White, Testimonios para la iglesia, t. 4, p. 156). PREGUNTAS PARA DIALOGAR:1. ¿Cómo te ayuda la tipología bíblica a comprender mejor el ministerio de Jesucristo en tu favor? 2. ¿En qué se parece nuestra guerra espiritual a la conquista de Canaán y en qué se diferencia de ella? 3. Reflexiona acerca del cumplimiento final de la tipología de Josué. ¿De qué manera la imagen de un mundo sin dolor, sufrimiento ni muerte nos imparte una esperanza real en medio de las luchas de la vida? 4. Josué reflejó el carácter de Dios hasta el punto de prefigurar el ministerio de Cristo. ¿Cuáles son algunas maneras prácticas en que puedes permitir que Jesús refleje su carácter en ti de manera más plena?

We press pause on the news cycle and dive into Scripture's living architecture—how David, Solomon, Isaiah, and John converge to reveal a Kingdom that isn't just future hope but present reality. We walk through the liturgical calendar's wisdom, the shock of John's “hour,” and the way Cana's stone jars unlock Exodus, Numbers, and a new creation pattern. Along the way we confront a popular error: the idea that Christ hasn't yet established His Kingdom. If the Gospel announces “the Kingdom is at hand,” then the Church is not a holding pattern—it's the King's reign made visible in Word, sacrament, and a Eucharistic temple.We explore Marian typology without sentimentality: Jeremiah's hidden ark, the overshadowing glory cloud, and why reverence for Mary clarifies, rather than distracts from, the Incarnation. We trace the branch from Jesse through Nazareth, the bread of the presence through David to the Eucharist, and Nathaniel's fig tree across the prophets. Typology isn't trivia; it's how Scripture trains our eyes to see Christ fulfilling every promise. And because grace aims at real life, we talk about family prayer, small rituals that carry children through hard years, and the demanding joy of fatherhood as priestly leadership—authority as sacrifice, not dominance.If you've felt disoriented by church conflicts or exhausted by constant outrage, Advent offers a better way: return to the story, receive the King, and let the calendar shape your days. Come hear how heaven “colonizes” earth through the Church, why obedience grows from grace, and how the Kingdom breaks into ordinary homes through beauty, memory, and the sacraments.

Meditación en la Novena a la Inmaculada. El Evangelio de hoy, miércoles I semana Adviento, nos muestra como Jesús se llena de compasión y comienza a curar a todas las gentes, y al final se compadece de ellas, porque no tienen nada que comer. Este rasgo nos recuerda mucho a María en las bodas de Cana: de ella heredó esta delicadeza y el afán de ayudar y socorrer.

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== LECCIÓN DE ESCUELA SABÁTICA         IV TRIMESTRE DEL 2025Narrado por: Eddie RodriguezDesde: Guatemala, GuatemalaUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchMIÉRCOLES 03 DE DICIEMBREEL VERDADERO JOSUÉ COMO ANTITIPO La historia de Josué debe verse a través del prisma de la tipología. Las guerras dirigidas por él son acontecimientos históricos que constituyen un segmento esencial de la historia de Israel. El objetivo de esas guerras era establecer a los israelitas en la Tierra Prometida, donde podrían disfrutar en paz de la herencia que les había sido asignada, y establecer una nueva sociedad basada en los principios de la Ley de Dios. Más tarde, autores del Antiguo Testamento, como Isaías, presentan la obra del Mesías también como consistente en asignar las “heredades desoladas [a su pueblo]” (Isa. 49:8, RVA-2015), utilizando la misma terminología que es tan frecuente en el libro de Josué. Así como la tarea de Josué había sido repartir la tierra a los israelitas, el Mesías, representado como el nuevo Josué, asigna la herencia espiritual a un nuevo Israel. Lee Hebreos 3:7-4:11. ¿Cómo confirma el Nuevo Testamento que Josué, el nuevo Moisés, es en sí mismo un tipo de Jesucristo? Los autores del Nuevo Testamento presentaron muchos aspectos del ministerio de Jesucristo en términos de la obra de Josué. Así como este entró en Canaán después de 40 años en el desierto, Jesús, el “Josué antitípico”, entró en su ministerio terrenal después de 40 días en el desierto (Mat. 4:1-11; Luc. 4:1‑13) y en su ministerio celestial después de 40 días en el desierto de esta tierra (Hech. 1:3, 9-11; Heb. 1:2). Después del bautismo de Jesús en el río Jordán, su “cruce del Jordán” (Mat. 3:13‑17; Mar. 1:9-11), los escritores del Evangelio citan el Salmo 2:7 e Isaías 42:1; es decir, un salmo mesiánico y una canción acerca el Siervo sufriente de Dios (Mat. 3:17; Mar. 1:11; Luc. 3:22). Por consiguiente, a través de su bautismo, Jesús es presentado como el guerrero divino que librará las guerras de Dios contra las fuerzas del mal mediante una vida de obediencia fiel, incluso hasta la muerte. Su vida y su muerte en la Cruz provocaron la expulsión de Satanás, dirigieron la conquista de nuestros enemigos espirituales, ofrecieron descanso espiritual a su pueblo y asignaron una herencia a los redimidos (Efe. 4:8; Heb. 1:4; 9:15). ¿Qué significa poder “descansar” en lo que Cristo ha hecho por nosotros? Es decir, ¿cómo podemos tener la seguridad de que Jesús ha derrotado a Satanás en nuestro favor?

No se permitió a nadie subir con él, ni durante el tiempo de su ausencia había de acercarse nadie al monte. Siguiendo la orden de Dios, había preparado dos tablas de piedra y las había llevado consigo a la cúspide del monte; y el Señor otra vez "escribió en tablas las palabras de la alianza, las diez palabras". Durante el largo tiempo que Moisés pasó en comunión con Dios, su rostro había reflejado la gloria de la presencia divina. Sin que él lo supiera, cuando descendió del monte, su rostro resplandecía con una luz deslumbrante. Ese mismo fulgor iluminó el rostro de Esteban cuando fue llevado ante sus jueces; "entonces todos los que estaban sentados en el concilio, puestos los ojos en él, vieron su rostro como el rostro de un ángel". Hechos 6:15. Tanto Aarón como el pueblo se apartaron de Moisés, "y tuvieron miedo de llegarse a él". Viendo su terror y confusión, pero ignorando la causa, los instó a que se acercaran... Mediante este resplandor, Dios trató de hacer comprender a Israel el carácter santo y exaltado de su ley, y la gloria del evangelio revelado mediante Cristo. Mientras Moisés estaba en el monte, Dios le dio, no solo las tablas de la ley, sino también el plan de la salvación. Vio que todos los símbolos y tipos de la época judaica prefiguraban el sacrificio de Cristo; y era tanto la luz celestial que brota del Calvario como la gloria de la ley de Dios, lo que hacía fulgurar el rostro de Moisés. Aquella divina iluminación era un símbolo de la gloria del pacto del cual Moisés era el mediador visible, el representante del único Intercesor verdadero... Moisés fue un símbolo de Cristo. Como intercesor de Israel, veló su rostro, porque el pueblo no soportaba la visión de su gloria; asimismo Cristo, el divino Mediador, veló su divinidad con la humanidad cuando vino a la tierra. Si hubiera venido revestido del resplandor del cielo, no hubiera hallado acceso a los corazones de los hombres, debido al estado pecaminoso de estos. No habrían podido soportar la gloria de su presencia. Por lo tanto, se humilló a sí mismo, tomando la "semejanza de carne de pecado" (Romanos 8:3), para poder alcanzar y elevar a la raza caída (Historia de los patriarcas y profetas, pp. 340, 341). Moisés fue un tipo o figura de Cristo... Dios tuvo a bien disciplinar a Moisés en la escuela de la aflicción y la pobreza, antes de que estuviera preparado para conducir las huestes de Israel hacia la Canaán terrenal. El Israel de Dios, que viaja hacia la Canaán celestial, tiene un Capitán que no necesitó enseñanzas humanas que le prepararan para su misión de conductor divino; no obstante fue perfeccionado por el sufrimiento; "porque en cuanto él mismo padeció siendo tentado, es poderoso para socorrer a los que son tentados". Hebreos 2:10, 18. Nuestro Redentor no manifestó las imperfecciones ni las debilidades humanas; pero murió a fin de obtener nuestro derecho a entrar en la tierra prometida (Historia de los patriarcas y profetas, pp. 512, 513). 

In this episode, we explore John 2:1–11 and the very first miracle recorded in John's Gospel. The moment the wine runs out isn't an accident—it's a sign. John is showing us that Jesus has come to establish a new covenant, ushering in a new age of grace. By turning water into an abundance of the very best wine, Jesus reveals that God doesn't just restore—He exceeds. He saves the best for last, and He pours it out generously. Join us as we unpack the meaning, the miracle, and the message behind the wedding in Cana.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------DONATE: https://evidence4faith.org/give/ WEBSITE: https://evidence4faith.org/NEWSLETTER: http://eepurl.com/hpazV5BOOKINGS: https://evidence4faith.org/bookings/CONTACT: Evidence 4 Faith, 349 Knights Ave Kewaskum WI 53040 , info@evidence4faith.orgMy goal is that their hearts, having been knit together in love, may be encouraged, and that they may have all the riches that assurance brings in their understanding of the knowledge of the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. - Colossians 2:2-3CREDITS: Developed & Hosted by Michael Lane.

Vemos este principio en toda la Biblia. Lo vemos, por ejemplo, en la tierra de Canaán, símbolo de nuestra esperanza eterna en una tierra nueva. También, por supuesto, el servicio del Santuario terrenal apuntaba a una realidad mucho mayor: “Pero Cristo ya vino, y ahora es el Sumo Sacerdote de los bienes definitivos. El Santuario donde él ministra es más grande y más perfecto, y no es hecho por mano de hombre; es decir, no es de este mundo” (Heb. 9:11). Surgen entonces las siguientes preguntas: ¿De qué manera apunta Josué a un cumplimiento futuro? ¿Cómo podemos estar seguros de que tal interpretación del libro es legítima? ¿Cuáles son los principios bíblicos que rigen la aplicación del libro de Josué a las realidades del Nuevo Testamento y a los acontecimientos del fin de los tiempos? Esta semana examinaremos los principios de interpretación bíblica relativos a la tipología. Estudiaremos cómo la propia Biblia contiene indicadores de tipología y cómo la vida de Josué prefigura el ministerio del Mesías y apunta a realidades que tienen que ver con la iglesia y con la consumación de la historia humana.

El relato de Débora y Barac en Jueces 4 es un testimonio del liderazgo inesperado que Dios utiliza para llevar a cabo su plan de liberación. En un tiempo de opresión bajo Jabín, rey de Canaán, Dios levanta a Débora, una profetisa y juez, para dirigir a Israel. Este pasaje destaca que Dios no se limita a líderes convencionales; Él usa a quien Él desea, incluyendo a mujeres, como instrumentos poderosos para su obra.

Jesus did his first miracle at a wedding in Cana. He turned water into wine. This miracle was a sign that manifested the glory of Jesus, and it caused his disciples to believe in him.

Como siervo de Dios, debía realizar una tarea especial. Desempeñó su oficio con gran honor y responsabilidad y las instrucciones impartidas a Moisés le fueron transferidas de un modo singular. "Ahora pues", dijo el Señor, "levántate y pasa este Jordán, tú y todo este pueblo, a la tierra que yo les doy a los hijos de Israel. Yo os he entregado, como lo había dicho a Moisés, todo lugar que pisare la planta de vuestro pie..." Cuando Josué contempló la ciudad de Jericó y consideró sus fortificaciones, elevó en su intimidad una oración a Dios, pues todo aquello parecía ir en su contra. Entonces, "alzó sus ojos y vio a un varón que estaba delante de él, el cual tenía una espada desenvainada en su mano". En esta ocasión, no era una visión. Era Cristo en persona con su gloria oculta tras el vestido de la humanidad... Si los ojos de Josué hubieran sido abiertos habría contemplado la presencia de las huestes celestiales dispuestas a derribar los muros de Jericó y poner a la ciudad en las manos del pueblo de Dios. Ahora, con toda confianza, Josué podía seguir las instrucciones y dejar su carga, grande y compleja, en las manos del Eterno... El Señor favoreció al pueblo escogido con prosperidad... Dios declaró que este sería un pueblo santo, apartado para él, y prometió que si ellos guardaban el pacto establecido con el Cielo, él proveería lo que necesitaran para su felicidad. Muy claras y definidas habían sido las instrucciones que Cristo había dado a Moisés al establecer los términos de la prosperidad que habrían de gozar y de la protección contra toda enfermedad. "Jehová tu Dios te ha escogido para serle un pueblo especial, más que todos los pueblos que están sobre la tierra. No por ser vosotros más que todos los pueblos os ha querido Jehová y os ha escogido, pues vosotros erais el más insignificante de todos los pueblos; sino por cuanto Jehová os amó, y quiso guardar el juramento que juró a vuestros padres, os ha sacado Jehová con mano poderosa, y os ha rescatado de servidumbre, de la mano de Faraón rey de Egipto..." Esta misma seguridad se extiende hoy al pueblo de Dios en su peregrinar hacia la Canaán celestial, donde una abundante heredad ha sido dispuesta para todos los que aman a Dios y guardan sus mandamientos (El Cristo triunfante, 6 de mayo, p. 135). 

Ghost and Ashe in America take viewers deep into Episode 5 of The Chosen, “The Wedding Gift,” unpacking its rich symbolism, biblical foundations, and character-driven storytelling. The episode opens with Mary and Joseph searching for the young Jesus in the Temple, setting the stage for themes of timing, calling, and divine purpose. At the wedding in Cana, Ghost and Ashe walk scene-by-scene through cultural traditions, the honor-based social dynamics, and the added character arcs that build toward Jesus' first public miracle. They explore the tension between practicality and faith through Thomas, the emotional weight of social shame for Dinah and Rafi, and the textured worldbuilding woven into every choice, from hospitality norms to the meaning of wine and the winepress throughout Scripture. The hosts also dive into one of the episode's most powerful additions: the electrifying, invented conversation between Nicodemus and John the Baptist, where prophecy, skepticism, and spiritual hunger collide. With humor, insight, and a touch of reverence, Ghost and Ashe guide viewers through the layered storytelling that makes this episode a standout in Season 1.

Maya Ramos is hoping that celebrating Halloween in Puerto Rico is exactly what she needs to get over her recent breakup. Her cousins think finding the perfect guy for a fling would help even more. Little do they know the candidate is closer than they think. Bryan Montalvo Ayala wholeheartedly believes he is the perfect guy for Maya, but not for a fling. He's known she was the one for him since the moment they met in college. His powers told him so. What he's never known is why that soul-deep knowledge skipped Maya. A chance encounter with a Goddess of Love puts the two of them on a new path, but neither is sure it's the right one.
