Jesus in Action - Messages from Mark
There are people who think that everything is black and white.They have a rule to guide every decision. If there is no law that pertains,they will make one up and impose it on everyone else. Other people think that everything is a shade of gray. They say you are free to do whatever you like.There are problems associated with both of these views. How did Jesus live and what did he teach his disciples?
This weekend we will dive into a cauldron of controversy. We’ll see in Mark 7that Christ’s opponents, the Pharisees, were once again bent out of shape by how Christ’s followers behaved. The flavor of religion in that day was terribly legalistic; leaders expected people to keep rules that were man-made and not based on God’s Word. Against the harsh and judgmental backdrop of confining condemnation, the liberty of the disciples seemed to be evidence that Jesus disregarded the traditions the Pharisees held so dear.
Join us this week as we learn about the liberty that sets us free from legalism.
