Manage episode 517449202 series 3624706
In this episode of the Gospel Thread Podcast, Dan Snyder revisits John 2, highlighting Jesus' first miracle of turning water into wine at a wedding in Cana and the subsequent cleansing of the temple. He explains how these acts are signs of Jesus' identity and mission, reflecting on the symbolism of the miracle as a foreshadowing of the New Covenant. The narrative underscores the importance of true belief, contrasting the faith of the disciples with those who believed superficially after witnessing miracles, emphasizing that genuine faith must be rooted in understanding who Jesus is rather than merely what He can do.
