Lord of the Sabbath – Part 2

Speaker: Pastor Ken Burgess
Series: The Gospel of Mark #13
Title: “Lord of the Sabbath – Part 2”
Scripture: Mark 3:1-6
Date: 03-19-17 Sun. PM

Description: What is legalism or a legalist? Legalism is adding to the Bible man-made rules or traditions for salvation or spirituality! A legalist is the one who does it. The Pharisees had developed a system of 613 laws, 365 negative commands and 248 positive laws. By the time Christ came on the scene, they had produced a heartless, cold, and arrogant brand of righteousness. Jesus directly confronted the man-made traditions and rules of the self-righteous Pharisees that added their oral traditions to the Biblical Sabbath.

In this two-part message, Pastor Ken addresses two incidents where Jesus challenged the Pharisees regarding their understanding of the Sabbath. This sermon presents the second example, dealing with healing a man with a withered hand on the Sabbath day.
