Luke 5:33-6:11; Matthew 12:7

Summary

An analysis of Jesus' parable of the wineskins, detailing that old wineskin are old human institutions and approaches to facilitate God's work, while the new wine is what God is doing at the time. Jesus argues that new wineskins are needed to keep up with God's new plan that He is establishing through Jesus. Modern institutional church wineskins are shown to also be a barrier to God's work (anti-cussing, special music, clergy dress, etc.), and are repelling people whom Jesus is trying to reach even though most people are interested in spiritual things.
