Christ Created Sabbath Rest for Man: Matthew 12:9-14
June 30, 2024 Preacher: Eric Douma Series: Matthew
Scripture: Matthew 12:9-14
In this message, taken from Matthew 12:9-14, we witness the Pharisees question Jesus about whether it was lawful to heal on the Sabbath. Jesus explains that since the Pharisees themselves agreed that it was moral to rescue a sheep on Sabbath, it certainly must be moral to heal a man made in the image of God.
We determine from this that not only is Jesus, as God, the arbiter of what is good and lawful for Sabbath keeping, but that He also created Sabbath for our good. Come and hear for yourself why true Sabbath rest is only found in Christ.
