APRIL 11 – NEW

04/11                  Matthew 9:14-17

One day the disciples of John the Baptist came to Jesus and asked him, “Why don’t your disciples fast like we do and the Pharisees do?” 15 Jesus replied, “Do wedding guests mourn while celebrating with the groom? Of course not. But someday the groom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast. 16 “Besides, who would patch old clothing with new cloth? For the new patch would shrink and rip away from the old cloth, leaving an even bigger tear than before. 17 “And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. For the old skins would burst from the pressure, spilling the wine and ruining the skins. New wine is stored in new wineskins so that both are preserved.”

NEW
Jesus teaching is that the Savior has come.  God has reached into our world and given us what we need and cannot earn-forgiveness for our sin, and right standing before God the Father.  Praise the Lord we are free indeed and Jesus has brought us into the family of God.
