Jesus did not soft pedal sin when he 👉👉commanded👈👈people to repent, (he did not ask them to repent), and he mentioned hell (the consequence of rejecting repentance), more times than he mentioned heaven‼️‼️‼️ This is not popular evangelism. For those too lazy to study the Bible, consider this: Romans 1:28 New International Version 28 “…they did not think it 👉👉👉worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God👈👈👈so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done.

We do not have the “freedom” to disobey. We choose to disobey because we hate God. But we do not have a “right or a freedom” to disobey‼️‼️‼️ Post Reply

It's interesting, because first of all, nobody was dying. No one was in pain or hurt. No one was lacking basic necessities. It was a wedding, and everyone has already had their fair share of wine. They were already drunk. But they wanted more. And so Jesus water into wine. And not just one bottle. He made 6 bottles filled to the brim. Each held about 20-30 gallons, so it's safe to say that He made approximately 150 gallons of wine. That's a lot of wine! You know, there is a difference between wants and needs. This was not a need. It was a want, because they did not need more wine. They have already had plenty. It would have been nice to have more but it was not a necessity. Jesus just wanted to make sure that they were able to celebrate the way they wanted. And that included wine. and lots of it. I remember, in Bible college, we were told that this was grapejuice. Haha Nothing could be farther from the truth. This was not grapejuice; it was wine. They were already drunk, and they got even more drunk. So, were they all saved or not? We don't know that, but in this event, the goal was to have fun. It was a big party which revolved around the bride and bridegroom. Jesus just wanted to stay in the background and not get noticed. He didn't say, "All right, everybody. Look at me. Attention! Attention! See this pot? It has water in it right now. But watch what I am going to do. I will count to three, and it's going to turn into wine!" Post Reply

Not their needs. Wants are different than needs. A need is something you desperately have to have, but a want is something you could go without and still be fine. You could still survive without a want. For example, we're all here looking for a spouse. This is a dating site. But this is not a need. It's just a want. We could all survive single. We wouldn't die if we didn't find a partner. So, this is a want. And Jesus is just as concerned about fulfilling our wants as He is concerned about fulfilling our needs. That's all I wanted to say. Thank you. Post Reply

Never compare yourself to how Jesus taught people. You do not even come close. Post Reply
