Bible Study was Jesus a Commandment breaker

Re: Was Jesus a comandment breaker

Jesus was not a comandment breaker! In fact If you look at what Jesus said about the law you see what I mean.

18 I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.

John himself said that Jesus broke the Sabbath Law.

Can you show me the scripture in which John says this ? thanks.

with love and respect, andy153

The scriptures do not judge the actions, but rather portray it from the views of those involved. According to the Pharisaic law, Christ was a Sabbath breaker. However, Christ came to free people from the hypocrisy and religiousity of the Jewish leaders.

By healing on the Sabbath to show that service, freedom and easing pain is what the Sabbath is for. It is good do good on the Sabbath. The Sabbath isn't about carrying your snot-rag a certain distance without breaking it. The Sabbath's message of deliverance, redemption and fellowship with the Creator was lost under rule after faith-numbing rule that the Pharisees loaded on the people. The hypocrites would help their ox out of the ditch on Sabbath but people shouldn't be healed on the Sabbath.

Christ wasn't breaking the Sabbath, he came to take the Sabbath back from them and show what keeping Sabbath was all about.

"The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. The son of man is Lord of the Sabbath"

So rather then say that Christ came to abolish it, we see that Christ MAGNIFIED it. Like the 10 comandments, He took the "written letter of the law" and spirituallly magnified it, making it even MORE important.
