Good morning all,
The word of the day is “dovetail.” It seems there were many
in Jesus’ time who did not believe in the work that he did. They thought that
he was working on selfish ambitions or for some kind of other spiritual gain.
However, Jesus never let the thoughts of others stopped him from accomplishing
his mission.
"Don't misunderstand why I have come. I did not come to
abolish the law of Moses or the writings of the prophets. No, I came to
accomplish their purpose.”
~Matt. 5:17
Jesus was not really one to defend himself. He let the law
of God do that for him. And as we see in this passage, Jesus reminds those who
often misunderstood him that he was not interested in abolishing the law, but
fulfilling prophecy and linking, or dovetailing the old Scriptures with what
would soon become the new. My question for you is: how do you link Jesus and
his teachings to your everyday life? My prayer is that you help others see why
the ministry of Jesus is still relevant today. We are given both the old and
new Testaments to help others see why they should also follow Christ.
Praying for you,
Mo
