Q3. (John 2:6-10) Why do you think alcoholics are quick to point out this miracle? Which is wrong: drinking wine or drunkenness? How can we avoid excesses and still enjoy God's good gifts? Eph 5 18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; 19 Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; To my understanding Jesus does not perform this miracle to show himself as miracle worker but the message of the miracle is as the Jewish tradition and low , they think that by washing their body using water they belief that they become free from uncleanness but Jesus shows Jewish water doesn't clean , purify humanity but his word( as written in John 15: 3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.), by performing this miracle using six waterpots of stone used for manner of the purifying , Jesus cancel the way of thinking and no more use this pots and water for purification .This is a purpose and message of a miracle changing water to Wine but not to give us a way to think as drinking is possible because the bible says Prov 23:20 Be not among winebibbers; among riotous eaters of flesh:
