Luke 6:2 NKJV
And some of the Pharisees said to them, “Why are you doing what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath?”
Luke 6:2 NKJV
When Jesus and His disciples picked the head of the grain and ate them, rubbing them in their hand, the Pharisees accused Jesus for breaking the law of the Sabbath.
In short, Jesus replied to them saying that He is the Lord of the Sabbath. That is a very bold, strong and powerful statement that Jesus made to the Pharisees.
Jesus just told them that He is Lord of them all. He is the fullfillment of them all and the one to take them all to a new covenant that will be set by Him.
This caused a great anger and caused them to find a way to kill Jesus. Now they are working towards violating their own beliefs by breaking the law to kill Jesus.
The law only keeps people behind the veil, they cannot see beyond the natural, beyond self and will block anything that tries to step out of the natural.
We are born again as spiritual children because we are to see everything through the spirit, through the eyes of Jesus.
We are not meant to function under the law of sin and death but in the power of God that we have received through Christ our Lord.
The focus of the spirit of Antichrist is to get people to stay in the natural, in their fallen nature so that satan can have a upper hand on their lives.
Jesus broke the curse, raised us up with Him and made us sit together with Him so that we rule, reign and govern from the spiritual realm.
Jesus went ahead to heal and teach in this chapter about living out the image of God, to forgive, to love and to care for one another. These are not rituals that the law requires but a lifestyle of the true children of God.
We are all called to display God in this earth by living out what Christ Jesus has put in us. The workmanship of Christ will be seen by all as we live in all that Christ has laid.
Let us make every effort to live out what we have received in Christ.
Live in the blessings,
Ps Ambrose
