THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE WEDDING IN CANA

At the wedding feast at Cana Jesus performed his first miracle by changing the water into wine.  The new wine is in contrast to the water of the old traditions.  Jesus later went on to introduce the new Passover symbolism of the bread and wine.

What is described in this upcoming document as “the Church”, is the New Creation in Messiah YaHUsha as the “Israel of Elohim” (Gal. 5:15 – 16).

It is therefore not simply the physical Israel of the Old Testament (although they were an example and type, 1 Cor. 10:1  – 11), because not all are “Israel” who are from physical Israel (Rom. 9:6 – 8).

The Israel of Elohim in Gal. 6:15 – 16 is in YaHUsha who is the Head, with the Believers in Him as the Body.  He was called from Egypt as the “Son” of YaHUaH (Matt. 2:15) just like with physical Israel whom was also called YaHUaH’s “son” with the exodus from Egypt (Hos. 12:14, Ex. 4:22 – 23).

With the events at the Wedding in Cana, the “My-Covenant” of the Melchizedek priesthood is symbolised and prophetically implemented as the “best wine”.

The Melchizedek order operates through Firstborns and was interrupted when the Levitical priestly order was instituted as a result of the worship of the Golden Calf while Moses was on the mountain, after which Firstborns were then redeemed and exchanged with Levites (Num. 3), but this would only last until YaHUsha would come to make a final correction and a transformation of the priesthood as His “servants”, as it is indeed happening here symbolically at the Wedding in Cana.

Water symbolises the Levitical dispensation and the change to wine represents the transformation to the spiritual as the “better wine”.  It is indeed the “Best Wine” that was left for last.

A wedding is about the making of a covenant.  The Wedding in Cana alludes to the “My Covenant” between Elohim and “His” transformed Israel (Gal. 5:15 – 16) and to the Wedding of the Lamb (compare Ex. 19:1 – 25) which involves a kingdom OF priests , not a kingdom WITH Levitical priests (compare Ex. 19:5 – 6 with 1 Pet. 2:9).  The Melchizedek order (best wine) is accompanied by the “My-Covenant” as the Eternal Covenant and it is opposed to the “A Covenant” which is the physical and obsolete Levitical system (water).  The two covenants were not the same from the beginning.

THE WORD INTO OUR HANDS

Almost everyone has a Bible or three to read from in our day, but it was not always like that.  How did the Bible reached each of us personally?  Let us briefly look at the last part of the road that the Word took to reach us.

The Bible Society started with a Welsh girl, Mary Jones, who had a deep desire for a Bible.  Mary was born at a time when Bibles were very rare and expensive and she had a deep longing from an early age to have her own Bible.  At the age of 15, after she had saved for years and years, she walked about 40 km to get a Bible.

DIE WOORD TOT IN ONS HANDE

Ons het vandag byna elkeen ‘n Bybel of drie om vanuit te lees, maar dit was nie altyd so nie.  Hoe het die Bybel tot by ons persoonlik gekom?  Kom ons kyk kortliks wat was die laaste ent van die pad wat die Woord geloop het sodat dit vandag binne elkeen van ons se bereik is.

Die Bybelgenootskap het begin by ‘n Walliese meisie, Mary Jones, wat ‘n diep begeerte na ‘n Bybel gehad het.  Mary is gebore in ‘n tyd toe Bybels baie skaars en duur was en sy het van kleins af ‘n diep verlange na ‘n eie Bybel gehad.  Op 15-jarige ouderdom, nadat sy vir jare en jare gespaar het, het sy ongeveer 40 km te voet afgelê om ‘n Bybel te bekom.

NIMROD, BABEL EN DIE DIER

Mens lees in die Woord van die Dier met die sewe koppe en daaruit spruit die verskillende horings. 

Dit is interessant dat profesie Babilon as ‘n “dier” uitbeeld in Daniël en in Openbaring.  Nebukadnesar as die koning van Babilon het soos ‘n dier geword omdat hy JaHUaH nie geag het nie.

NIMROD, BABEL AND THE BEAST

We read in Scripture about the Beast with the seven heads and from them spring the different horns.

It is interesting that prophecy portrays Babylon as a “beast” in Daniel and in Revelation. Nebuchadnezzar as the king of Babylon became like a beast because he did not honour YaHUaH.

DIE “VERLORE ISRAELIET” – ‘n Getuienis van bevryding uit die Hebreeuse Wortels

Hierdie is ‘n kragtige getuienis van Henru Pieters oor hoe hy in die Hebreeuse Wortels beland het en baie ywerig daarin werksaam was, maar toe kragdadig daaruit bevry is.

Henru het in sy geestelike lewe begin om na waarheid te soek. In sy soektog na antwoorde op sy baie vrae het hy baie vriende verloor en selfs verwerping van ‘n kerk ervaar. So het hy naderhand gedink dat hy deel is van die “verlore Israeliete” naamlik die sogenaamde “Verlore Tien Stamme”.

Genadiglik het hy deur goddelike ingryping ‘n oogopening gehad omdat JaHUsha hom ten spyte van al sy verwarring nie verlaat het nie, maar hom verlos het uit diè kragtige dwaling en hom weer opgerig in sy staanplek in die Koninkryk van die Hemel.

Henru beklemtoon dat sy identeit nou slegs in Messias JaHUsha is.

BOME IN DIE WOORD

‘n Boom is die grootste van alle lewende organismes.  Bome is die longe van die aarde. 

In die Woord word die mens dikwels vergelyk met ‘n boom.  Die Woord begin en eindig met die Boom van die lewe (Gen. 2:16 – 17, Open. 2:7, Open. 22:2).

Ons praat van die familieboom van mense en mens kan sê dat die Boom van die lewe die “familieboom” van Elohiem is.  Die boom van kennis van goed en kwaad aan die anderkant kom dan ooreen met die “familieboom van Satan”, hy wat die teenstander van JaHUaH is.

TREES IN SCRIPTURE

A tree is the largest of all living organisms. Trees are the lungs of the earth.  In the Word, man is often compared to a tree.  

The Word begins and ends with the Tree of life.

We are talking about the family tree of people and one can say that the Tree of Life is the “family tree” of Elohim.  The tree of the knowledge of good and evil on the other side then corresponds to the “family tree of Satan”, he who is the opponent of YaHUaH.
