“We ain’t here anymore”

Change is all around us

To make changes or resist changes?

A QUESTION FOR JESUS

Jesus’ puzzling behavior

Wedding guests and the bridegroom

Parables of unshrunk cloth and old wineskins

Changes the New Covenant brings

NOT ALL CHANGE IS GOOD

We should be anchored to the eternal truth of the Bible

Technology changes are neutral

Doctrinal changes can pose a threat to the Church

False teachings we need to reject (John 14:6; 1 Timothy 4:16)

SOME CHANGES ARE GOOD

Our methods should change to reach a changing world (1 Corinthians 9:22b-23a)

We should seek to be “flexible”

May we be willing to use “new wineskins” as we remain anchored to the eternal truth of God’s Word
