The Gospel of Mark 6:53-7:23
Jul 25, 2021 • Dominic Dinger
God anointed Jesus with the Holy Spirit & power, and Jesus went around doing good & healing all who were oppressed by the devil (Acts 10:38). Who could find fault with Jesus for going around doing good? The Pharisees could—and did. These religious leaders were devoted to preserving the culture of Judaism instead of Scripture. So when they called Jesus out on not honoring the customs of the culture, Jesus brought them back to scripture to show them (and us) the error of legalism.
