All things testify of Christ

As I read of all of the miracles, time and time again, realize the symbolism which point to the Savior and his role that he would play here on earth. This time, I was reading in John 2:2-11. As I read, I noticed an interesting parallelism. The Savior took the pots that had contained the old wine, and he filled them with new wine which was better than the first. In the same way, the Savior came to earth to fill mankind with the "new wine" of his gospel. It came where there had previously only been the "old wine", the law of Moses, and brought in its place the Gospel of Jesus Christ that is a better and higher law teaching more than just obedience, but principles of righteousness.
