The Old Wineskin

In this powerful message, we're challenged to embrace the transformative power of Christ in our lives. The parable of the wineskins in Luke 5:33-39 reminds us that Jesus isn't just an add-on to our old ways; He calls us into a completely new life. We're invited to imagine a new kingdom where the last shall be first and the meek are rewarded. This isn't about minor adjustments, but a radical shift in how we live and think. The tension between our old nature and new life in Christ is real, but we're encouraged to lean into this challenge. Just as new wine requires new wineskins, our new life in Christ demands a fresh start. Are we willing to let go of our old ways and fully embrace the new covenant Jesus offers? This message urges us to consider where we might be trying to pour new wine into old wineskins in our own lives, and challenges us to surrender fully to Christ's transformative work.
