Text: Mark 2:18-22

 

Jesus Must be Received and Believed (2:18-20)

Feasting, not fasting, is appropriate when the bridegroom is near. Truth: Jesus is the Bridegroom and He must be believed as the Son of God.

 

Jesus’ Message Cannot Be Combined or Contained (2:21-22)

New cloth is unsuitable for old garments. New wine is uncontainable in old wineskins. Truth: Jesus’ message cannot be added to a religious system.
