Mark 2:21-22


Your whole life changes when you invite Christ into it. 

Satan wants nothing less than to destroy  your relationship with the Father and he hates Jesus. Don’t give up when your world seems to fall apart knowing that if you presevere you will succeed! We are being made new, precept by precept, and the lessons that achieve this process are sometimes hard to understand and even harder to accept…just believe and remember  Jesus wins :) 

It is not about rules and regulations it is about relationship with the triune Godhead. It is a new paradigm expressed in the form of the only begotten Son of God.

paradigm |ˈparəˌdīm|
noun
1 technical a typical example or pattern of something; a model: there is a new paradigm for public art in this country.
  • a worldview underlying the theories and methodology of a particular scientific subject: the discovery of universal gravitation became the paradigm of successful science.

The comparison implies that the newness of His message, and of the new covenant to follow, cannot fit into the old molds of Judaism. The OT was preparation for the NT.

Mark 2:21-22
21 No one sews a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; or else the new piece pulls away from the old, and the tear is made worse. 22 And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine bursts the wineskins, the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are ruined. But new wine must be put into new wineskins.”

20 So they watched Him, and sent spies who pretended to be righteous, that they might seize on His words, in order to deliver Him to the power and the authority of the governor. 
Luke 20:20


14 But the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath; and he said to the crowd, “There are six days on which men ought to work; therefore come and be healed on them, and not on the Sabbath day.” 
Luke 13:14


2The kings of the earth set themselves, And the rulers take counsel together, Against the Lord and against His Anointed, 4saying, 

Psalm 2:2
