How Dare YOU!!!!

How Dare YOU!

When Jesus healed a man on the Sabbath, the Self-Righteous Religious Leaders of His Day, the equivalent to today's Pastors and Deacons, erupted in indignation. How dare He do such a thing? Didn't Jesus know that they had decreed doing such things on the Sabbath was forbidden.

Then it got even worse. Jesus plainly stated that Jehovah was His Father and He was going to keep doing the Father's Business. That was simply too much for them. They erupted into a right-on conniption fit.

Sound familiar? Don't we have far too many self-righteous religious leaders today who react the same way anytime someone dares to question them or contradict their version of religion? That is why SO, SO MANY want nothing to do with Christianity or Church today. And we are only going to get around it by showing them such people do not actually represent Jesus no matter what their job or title.

Join us this evening for a Study of John chapter 5, coming to you from a very soggy Pokagon State Park. We thank our friend and Outreach Partner, Keith Hartley, for joining us this weekend and for the challenging Message he brought earlier this afternoon. (Some might even say he did a better job than Brian Penrod two weeks ago.)
