Listen "Matthew 12:1–14"
Episode Synopsis
The sermon explores the tension between law and mercy through Jesus’ confrontation with the Pharisees over Sabbath observance. While the religious leaders clung tightly to rules and restrictions, Jesus revealed that the Sabbath was never meant to burden but to bless. It was given for rest, renewal, and mercy. He shows that love is the fulfillment of the law and that true obedience cannot be separated from compassion. The message reminds us that it is easy to become caught up in religious performance while missing the heart of God. In contrast to both legalism and lawlessness, Jesus offers Himself as the Lord of the Sabbath, the one who brings true rest not only to our bodies but to our souls. We are called not just to imitate His mercy but to come to Him for it.
