Mark 2-3:12

Jan 29, 2023    Pastor Josh Pate

This sermon explores Jesus's teachings and actions as presented in the Gospel of Mark, focusing on how he challenged the Jewish religious establishment and asserted his authority as the Son of God. The text establishes key terms like "Torah," "Pharisees," and "fence laws" to contextualize Jesus's teachings within the Jewish legal framework. Finally, Pastor Josh uses the image of "new wine in old wineskins" to illustrate the need for a spiritual transformation that goes beyond mere adherence to external rules, mirroring the call to embrace Jesus as the Messiah and the new covenant he brings.
