Jn 2-5 · (172h) Catholicism (Key verse) Here we find commentary for Jn 2,7-10 and other topics pertaining to this passage. Note that Jn 2,7-9 lies within the interval of Jn 2,7-10, which makes it relevant to our target passage. ... Repeat Tutorial Jn 2,7-10 · (13m) Serve God faithfully – God often asks you to do things that you don’t understand, but will understand later if you do them. We should have the attitude that Mary, His mother, spoke to the servants, "Whatever He says to you, do it." We don’t have the big picture like God does, so we can’t make judgments about the validity of God’s requirements on our lives. We are better off just doing what He says without asking any questions like these servants did and later discovering what it was all about as we enjoy the rewards of our faith and obedience. Jn 2,7-9 · (72g) Transferring authority >> Receiving the delegated authority of Christ – Jesus had the headwaiter taste the new wine first in recognition of his authority, just as God delegates His authority within the godhead and disseminates it throughout the church. We too should recognize the authority of Christ as coming from the Father, and delegate our authority from God though the hierarchy that exists within the church and throughout the world. Jn 2-9,10 · (43g) Judgment >> Satan destroyed >> Perfect (mature) >> Flawless Jn 2-10 · (221a) Kingdom of God >> The elusive kingdom of heaven >> Kingdom hidden behind the veil from the world >> God hides from man’s ignorance >> God hides from those who are not looking for Him · (229k) Kingdom of God >> God’s kingdom is a living organism >> Partaking >> Partaking of Jesus >> Partaking of Jesus’ ministry Jn 2-12 -- No Entries Jn 2,13-21 · (122j) Thy kingdom come >> Manifestations of faith >> Boldness in adverse circumstances >> Do the will of God in the face of adversity – Jesus drove out the moneychangers from the temple with a whip. This happens to be the favorite Scripture of many anti-Semitic, white supremacy groups, who claim that the Jews who held Israel in bondage to their money system in Jesus’ day are the ancestors of the Jewish bankers presently holding the world hostage to their ruthless debt-based money system. We should be driving the moneylenders from the economic system of our day, but no one is stepping to the plate like Jesus did. · (179a) Works of the devil >> The religion of witchcraft >> Hypocrisy >> Jesus rebukes the Pharisees >> Rebuked for questioning His authority – After Jesus overturned their tables and drove them from the temple, they asked the Lord by what authority He did this. His answer, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” Jesus was the embodiment of God’s grace and mercy, and the only way He could show them the love of God was with a whip. In Matthew chapter 24 He asked them, “How will you escape the sentence of hell?” meaning they wouldn’t. Since these people were dead while they lived (Jude 12) and judged before the time (Mat 8-29), it indicates that they were literally incapable of repenting of their unbelief. These men were incapable of receiving what Jesus came to offer the world; they didn’t deserve the truth. · (180a) Works of the devil >> Practicing witchcraft >> Wolves >> Wolves lead people into a cult >> Leading people for sordid gain
