40 days with Mark and Jesus (5)

Mark 2:18-28

A question about disciples is really a question about the Lord of the disciples. John teaches his disciples to fast, who are you to teach your disciples not to fast? Who are you to permit your disciples to do what is not lawful on the Sabbath? The Lord Jesus whom we are following is Lord even of the Sabbath, there is no greater Lord than Christ Jesus which is why he is to be followed.

Prayer: In the light of your word may we know Jesus Christ to be Lord of all and may we follow him on the way of the cross today and every day.
