What Does Jesus Mean: The SabbathIs Made for Man; Not Man for the Sabbath?


I think what Jesus was saying was that He gave us a day to rest, and we turned it into a religion.

In other words, we believe that if we keep the sabbath holy, we are going to find favor with God; and whoever does the best job of keeping the sabbath holy finds the most favor with God.

I don’t believe that’s true. Why we keep the sabbath holy might give us favor with God. But God is not a religion. He is love. That’s why He gives us rest. And if keeping our religion, keeping our sabbath, keeps us from loving our neighbor, He says we are missing the whole point.

Mark 2:27

And he said unto them: The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath.

Galatians 5:14

For all the law is fulfilled in one word, love.

Trust God no matter what.

Keep your eyes on the horizon.
