Mark 2:27 – The Pharisees knew the letter of the law but not the spirit of the law. They added rules to the Sabbath and it became a burden to keep the Sabbath by their standards. Jesus is the Lord of the Sabbath. He made the Sabbath to bless man, not curse man. The Sabbath was a day for the Jew to rest, spend time with family, and most of all spend time with God. We need rest physically, emotionally, and spiritually. The Sabbath was to give and enhance life. Man was created to give God pleasure. God desires a relationship with us, not a religion. Since the Pharisees did not have a relationship with the Lord, they could not understand any of this. Jesus, You did not come to call the righteous, but sinners like me and for that I am eternally grateful.

Gina W. from Phoenix, AZ said:
There are so many beneficial things in creation that we don't even see. God actually needs to remind us of the very reason for which we were created. Imagine what an insult it is that the creator of the whole universe has to remind us of the very reasons for our existence!! But he loves us so much, in spite of ourselves.

Jesus was questioned and critiqued about everything he did. He was the living God and knew the law and expectations yest he was challenged at every turn. Thankfully, many listened, learned and believed in him.
