Keeping law or knowing Christ?

by

Exodus 20: 1-4, 7-9, 12-20.
Psalm 19
Matthew 21: 33-46
Philippians 3: 4b-14

Introduction
The readings this morning come from the lectionary, a series of readings that cover much of the Bible over a five year period.

Non-Christian perceptions of Christianity often include what people can and can’t do. I’ve heard people say, ‘I couldn’t stand being a Christian, you’ve got to give up things.’ The media often cast Christianity negatively – ‘it’s about doing this or that, keeping rules.’ In other words, they see Christianity in terms of law – having to keep laws, and laws cramping our style, or telling us to do things we don’t want to, and the things we want to do we can’t.
