Summary

(John 2:1-11) The first recorded miracle of Jesus was at a wedding in Cana. It demonstrates the extraordinary work Jesus does in ordinary life.

0:00.0	In difficult days and facing dire circumstances, it is always good to remind ourselves that God is greater than all.
0:14.9	Scott Pauley is examining the miracles of Jesus recorded for us in God's Word.
0:20.1	Our hope is that the message in these miracles will
0:23.1	become real in your life. Christ is enough. Let's open our Bibles and join the study now.
0:34.4	Today we begin one of the most exciting studies in all of Scripture. We begin our adventure of walking
0:41.1	through the individual miracles of the Lord Jesus Christ. I honestly am looking forward to every one of
0:48.7	these, and I want to encourage you to stay with us through the entire series. Let me say a couple
0:53.6	things by way of introduction.
0:54.9	The first is this, that we are not studying all of the miracles of Jesus. We're studying all
1:00.5	of the recorded miracles of Jesus. In fact, scripture is very plain that not all of the
1:05.9	miracles of Jesus are recorded for us. John tells us, but these are recorded so that you will know that Jesus Christ
1:13.6	indeed is the Son of God. So we know that our Lord performed many miracles. Only God himself knows
1:20.6	how many miracles were performed while our Lord was on earth. But we're studying the recorded
1:25.2	miracles of Jesus Christ, and I'll remind you that these are selected for us by the Holy Spirit
1:30.6	because each of these miracles has some message for us. There is a truth that God wants us to know.
1:36.7	And all of the miracles have one great message, and that is that Christ is enough. God is greater, greater than whatever or whoever you're dealing with today.
1:46.9	Greater than wherever or whenever you're living, God is greater and Christ is enough.
1:53.4	We begin our study in John chapter 2, and this is not arbitrary, no, this is very intentional,
1:58.1	because Scripture is very plain that this was the beginning of the miracles that Jesus did.
2:04.0	You know, there's some disagreement among Bible students and Bible teachers on exactly how many miracles there are.
2:10.8	I mean by that, the number of them.
2:13.5	And the disagreement really is not in the miracles themselves, but rather in their arrangement.
