Read the passage: mark 2
vs.21 1) Don't need truth patched in to human experience.
(No man seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment,)
vs.21 2) The pattern of human experience will tear away the message of truth.
( ... the tear is made worse)
It doesn’t fit together.
Characterized by an attempt to fit Jesus into our way of thinking, or exalting our thinking by equating it with God’s thinking.
vs.22 3) An unsealed vessel cannot hold truth.
( ••• else the new wine doth burst the wineskins)
Ephesians 1:18
.
v 22 4) A fixed capacity container cannot contain (hold all of) truth.
vs.22 (old wineskins)
A believer is a new wineskin.
A believer can pour truth into fleshly concepts, mix with ideas of world, vanities of mind, legalism, cultural methods, and so on, but it doesn’t mix with truth. Truth rejects all error.
vs.22 5) Truth not held is truth lost to that vessel.
(the wine is spilled.)
vs.22 6) Absence of truth results in a marred vessel.
(the wineskins will be marred;)
vs.22 7) Truth's integrity will not be changed by the change in the vessel(s).
(new wine)
