Criticizing Jesus “He Breaks The Rules”

Criticizing Jesus “He Breaks The Rules”

Jesus was criticized for breaking the rules, but what he really broke were the human traditions that distorted God’s law.  He did not come to abolish the law, but to fulfill it with justice, mercy, and love.  If your rule-keeping gets in the way of loving people, you’ve missed God’s heart.  Jesus didn’t come to make you love the rules – he came to set you free to love like him.
