VIII. MAIN BODY:
A. Dear Woman
1. Woman came from the Greek word:"gune" meaning woman, wife,
it was not of disrespect but of honor to a woman due her.
In Christ's reply to his mother there was no disrespect. — Matthew Henry Concise
1 Timothy 2:11-15 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)
Women should learn quietly and submissively.
I do not let women teach men or have authority over them. Let them listen quietly.
For God made Adam first, and afterward he made Eve.
And it was not Adam who was deceived by Satan. The woman was deceived, and sin was the result.
But women will be saved through childbearing, assuming they continue to live in faith, love, holiness, and modesty.
2. Our LORD JESUS CHRIST referred to her mother as Eve. Somehow Mary was reminded of her place.
If the husband is the head of every wife, then Adam is the head of Eve, but Eve showed she can lead their relationship, hence, the fall. Then CHRIST is the Head of Mary, for Mary belonged to the Church.
1 Timothy 2:14 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)
And it was not Adam who was deceived by Satan. The woman was deceived, and sin was the result.
1 Timothy 2:11 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)
Women should learn quietly and submissively.
Colossians 3:18 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)
Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting for those who belong to the Lord.
Ephesians 5:23 (New King James Version)
For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body.
B. Why do you involve me?
1. If the first Adam just said this statement to her wife, Eve, he would not have disobeyed GOD by eating the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. There's a time to listen to the wife but the husband should exercise submitting to GOD rather than to the wife, the wife submits to the husband.
Genesis 3:16-17 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)
Then he said to the woman, “I will sharpen the pain of your pregnancy, and in pain you will give birth. And you will desire to control your husband, but he will rule over you.”
And to the man he said, “Since you listened to your wife and ate from the tree whose fruit I commanded you not to eat, the ground is cursed because of you. All your life you will struggle to scratch a living from it.
2. Involving the LORD JESUS CHRIST means Miracles. Wherever CHRIST is there are signs, wonders and miracles.
Romans 15:19 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)
They were convinced by the power of miraculous signs and wonders and by the power of God’s Spirit. In this way, I have fully presented the Good News of Christ from Jerusalem all the way to Illyricum.
Because during those days, they did not acknowledge our LORD JESUS CHRIST as CHRIST and GOD, so they only got His miracles but missed CHRIST, get the LORD JESUS CHRIST and you'll get everything, it's a package deal.
John 7:31 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)
Many among the crowds at the Temple believed in him. “After all,” they said, “would you expect the Messiah to do more miraculous signs than this man has done?”
2. "What have we to do with thee."
What have we to do with thee, is a Jewish phrase, which often occurs in the Old Testament, signifying an abrupt refusal of some request, or a wish not to be troubled with the company or importunity of others.—Adam Clarke's Commentary
Romans 15:19 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)
They were convinced by the power of miraculous signs and wonders and by the power of God’s Spirit. In this way, I have fully presented the Good News of Christ from Jerusalem all the way to Illyricum.
C. My Time Has not yet come
1. time or hour came from the Greek word:"hora" meaning hour, day, instant,
another Greek word:"kairos" is used in pertaining to time, occasion, proper time, season, a while, opportunity.
a. Either LORD JESUS CHRIST speaks of his time is not yet done here on earth, or His time of being crucified or glorified has not yet come, for all of us, as humans, are subject to time, but GOD is not and will never be subject to any time for time is created for us, GOD does not need time.
John 7:6 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)
Jesus replied, “Now is not the right time for me to go, but you can go anytime.
John 2:4 (New International Version)
"Dear woman, why do you involve me?" Jesus replied. "My time has not yet come."
2. GOD, the SON, the LORD JESUS CHRIST is not limited in any way, shape or form, not limited by time and space.
a. The LORD JESUS CHRIST disciples and the people hearing GOD's message are limited by time, but the LORD JESUS CHRIST is not instead His Time for a miracle is at hand.
Matthew 14:15 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)
That evening the disciples came to him and said, “This is a remote place, and it’s already getting late. Send the crowds away so they can go to the villages and buy food for themselves.”
b. Judgment day only affects the creations, creatures not the Creator wherein the LORD JESUS CHRIST is the Judge.
Revelation 14:15 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)
Then another angel came from the Temple and shouted to the one sitting on the cloud, “Swing the sickle, for the time of harvest has come; the crop on earth is ripe.”
Revelation 14:7 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)
“Fear God,” he shouted. “Give glory to him. For the time has come when he will sit as judge. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth, the sea, and all the springs of water.”
c. Time of deceivers (anti-christ) was also set by GOD.
1 John 2:18 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)
Dear children, the last hour is here. You have heard that the Antichrist is coming, and already many such antichrists have appeared. From this we know that the last hour has come.
d. Only GOD can set His Time, not even His servant, Mary, his mother on earth, can set time for the LORD JESUS CHRIST because Mary is human just like us, and the LORD JESUS CHRIST was and is GOD.
(1) The LORD JESUS CHRIST as GOD, the Son, sets His Time of glorification and GOD, the Father agreed.
John 17:1 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)
After saying all these things, Jesus looked up to heaven and said, “Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son so he can give glory back to you.
John 12:23 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)
Jesus replied, “Now the time has come for the Son of Man to enter into his glory.
IX. CONCLUSION:
Ephesians 5:23 (New King James Version)
For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body.
