Mystical Eucharist

Water into wine

Jesus’ magical juice

Bloody, bloody wine

– John 2:1-11

The Gospel of John is the only book where Jesus turns water into wine (John 2:1-11). I find it ironic that wine is used in the Eucharist (aka Holy Communion or the Lord’s Supper) to symbolize Jesus’ blood. Of course, the Catholic sect of Christianity considers the wine to be the real blood of Christ (transubstantiation).
