Very fine sermon, pastor. One of my study Bibles (Zondervan 'Life In The Spirit' study bible (NIV) has an interesting side topic on whether the wine provided by Jesus was new wine (unfermented/non-alcoholic) or old wine (fermented/aged/alcoholic). It decides with the first suggestion; new wine, as it concurs with the idea you bring out; that this represents the new gospel of salvation.
It's a rather interesting piece, although not very relevant to the message.
Oh, I think the actual *wine* that Jesus produced was *not* new wine, since that is not the best quality. I think it tasted like aged wine, which is better quality (see Isaiah 25:6-8, which I quote). I used the term "new wine" once metaphorically, in the context of the "rplacement" theme.
The non-fermented business you refer to is letting a pietistic anti-alcohol agenda override their exegesis. But I am a Lutheran and not adverse to drinking wine (real wine) or other alcoholic beverages.
