CRUNCH TIME!

Hey, what’s going on here??...                                                                                            
‘The Pharisees held Council against Him, how they might DESTROY Him’                   
So Jesus dives for cover?  NO!    (Matt 12:14-15)                                                                                        
‘...great multitudes followed Him, and HE HEALED THEM ALL!’

Whatever has Jesus done to deserve this?                       
All He had to do was.... push ‘the Sabbath’ button. 
How?...just by letting His hungry disciples eat some ‘corn’, then telling a man: “Stretch out your hand”.

Hang about...                                                                  
There’s nothing in Mosaic Law to say Jews have to go hungry on their day of rest - especially if you are their rightful King!                                                                            

More than that...
This Man is even greater than the temple!                                                                        
He is the Son of Man with universal dominion!                                                                  
He is Lord of the Sabbath!...... “I will have mercy and not sacrifice”                            

So who is showing the mercy here?                             
They’d rescue a sheep out of a hole but rather see a man’s hand stay withered??

Yup, it’s crunch time alright!  Maybe Gentiles will accept the Messiah?

What about you? Do you honour Jesus as Lord and Saviour?
