John, ii.1-11, Golden text: “Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it."—John, ii.5. Jesus sounded the keynote of His ministry when He performed His first miracle at the wedding in Cana. was during the ceremonies of the marriage, which in the Last is always a Joyous occasion, that His mother informed the Master about the shortage of wine. The promi- nent part that Mary took in super- vising the details of the social activi- ties would indicate that the marriage was one of the family” circle of friends. The absence of any reference to Joseph was due to the fact that he had probably died since he took Jesus to Jerusalem to become a son of the law. The information convey- ed to the Lord by His blessed mother, who had learned since the death of Joseph to lean upon Him for comfort and help in every emergency, was a tactful suggestion that He do some- thing to relieve the embarrassment, which may have been caused by the unexpected presence of His disciples. Thes guests, where the ceremonies lasted several days, were expected to help in making it a success. Unlike John the Baptist, the Master enjoyed the friendship and fellow- ship of men. He sought to impart His joy to others. The religion that He established has_filled the world with song and joy. Buddhists are try- ing to compete with Christianity in the Far East by copying their songs. Mohammedanism never had any hymns in connection with its fatal- istic faith. It was during the joy- ous wedding celebration that Jesus sanctioned marriage by His presence and taught by His miracle that He had come to make men better, hap- pler and nobler in the world. He had brought His disciples with Him to the wedding, teaching them that they were to enjoy the pleasures of life while associated with him. The high ideals concerning marriage entertain- ed by the Jews, who looked upon the ceremonies, that lasted from two days to a week, as something more than mere festivity and merriment, made it an ideal hour to teach by a sign His message to men. Christ's First Miracle. Many have misunderstood the dia- legue that was spoken by Mary and the Lord because they have consid- ered the term ‘woman” to have been one of disrespect, which it is not Jesus would never have used any word in addressing His mother that was ignoble or lackipg in endear- ment. Weymouth’s translation of His answer to her information about the embarrassment due to the lack of wine mAkes clear the attitude of Jesus. He had shown His amiability, courtesy and social spirit as He moved among them, helping to fill all with the joy that ought to mark such an occasion. His reply, “Leave the matter in My hands; the time for Me to act has not yet come,” satisfied His mother that she could depend upon His resourcefulness to meet the situ- ation.. This appears in her commands to the servants to do immediately whatsoever Jesus told them. No bet- ter advice can be given to His follow- ers today than the words_ of the Lord’s mother, “Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it.” If we do it promptly and gladly, whether the task be small or great, our success will surprise us more than the servants were who carried out His instructions. - It was an hour of world-wide sig- nificance. The household’s embar- rassment may be judged from the Jewish saying, “Without wine there 1t | " The firkins standing near v, partially filled with water for abiutions, He ordered that the serv ants fill them up to th brim. They had “about 120 gallons” of water in I'the firkins when Jesus commanded the servants to draw it out and carry it to the one who had been appointed director of the ceremonies. Those who had obeyed Him found out that, acting under His orders, a miracle had been performed. He had turned the water into wine, so that they had an abundance of the very best wine, which was unusual. The fact:of the miracle is beyond question, Men who doubt it may well ponder the words of St. Augustine: “We say that all miracles (or prodi- gies) are contrary to nature; but that they are not. For how can they be contrary to nature which takes place by the will of God, seeing that the will of the great Creator is the true nature of everything created? Sao miracle is not contrary to nature, but only to what we know of nature.” The Master had put into the water by His creative power a life that no joy alcoholic fermentation could never have surpassed. 1t convinced those who knew of His part in changing the water into wine, so that His dis- ciples were confirmed in their faith and His glory was manifested. His Glory Revealed. ‘While Jesus revealed by His effort to remove the social embarassments His sympathy with the common joys of life, the miracle revealed His per- sonality. His glory was revealed by an act of timely helpfulness. By turning water into wine, Christ show- ed Himself to be the “Ruler of all nature.” The creative act declared that in Him God was present. The Lord's helpfulness to the . poor and needy is his pre-eminent glory. He is still seeking to help, ail and as- sist them. Jesus had demonstrated by His presence and power among them that He was the Messiah ful- filling the symbolism of the Old Testament by being what the Bap- tist called the bridegroom. Another result from the “sign™ was a deepening of the disciples' convic- tion that He was indeed “a teacher come from God.” The few, who had enrolled as His disciples, had any doubts that existeq in their minds removed by the miracle, which was not performed for the purpose of strensthening their faith, but to meet a human need. No man is asked to accept divine truth upon the ground of miracles. That stands on its own merits and proves itself by its adap- tion to the needs of the human_soul. If one accepts the teachings of Christ on the ground that Jesus speaks the truth, then they must accept the mi- racle’ as a fact, for He Himself has #aid, “T cast out demons by the finger of_God.” When He met Satan during the !em?uflem in the wilderness, Jesus declined to use miracles as a proof of His being the “Son of God.” He realized that the power to perform miracles was not given Him to prove that He was the Messiah, but to per- form the tasks of helpfulness con- nected with His Messianic mission. The fact that His first miracle “con- sisted in turning water into wine in+ dicated the character of His ministry, and the results of faith in Him.* He came to rescue humanity from its sin and suffering and to g to all the joys of His salvation. In changing water into wine, He revealed how He would transform humanity. He showed how men would be glorified. by obedience to His commands and their lives developed until their char- agter and ties would receive their highest possible development. ‘We will prove our faith in Him and reveal His glory to men if we heed the words of Mary, “Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it.” The changing of the water into wine was done in silence and so will be the transfor- mation of our lives, if we obd Him. ’ .THE EVENING STAR WASHINGTON, D. C., SATURDAY, AUGUST 9, 1924, BISHOP ALLOWED USE OF ARMY AIRPLANE Will Be Enabled Thereby to Visit Inaccessible Sections of Haiti. Admiral L. W. Eberle, chief of op- erations, Navy Department, has is- sued orders to the Marine officer in command of the American forces in Haitl, under which Rt. Rev. H. R. Carson, D. D., Missionary Bishop of the Episcopal Church there, is au- thorized to make use of the govern- ment aeroplanes in his visitations to various parts of the Island. It is believed that this is the first instance in which the aeroplane has been put to the uses of the church. In this particular case, according to statements made by Bishop Carson, he will be enabled to visit {naccessi- ble portions of Haiti where the Chris- tian religion has seldom, if ever, been preached; and, through government assistance, will be able to carry the message of American Christian civili- zation to natives who are still living in comparative savagery.
