The Gift of Sabbath | The Gospel of Mark: A Movement of Misfits | Week 4

Legalism vs. License

Big idea: Jesus is Lord of everything, so you can rest easy. 

3 Markers of Legalism
  1. Legalists add their own rules to the scriptures. 
  2. Legalists appoint themselves as judge over others. 
  3. Legalists strictly hold everyone to their own rules of choice. 

The Backstory of the Sabbath 
Genesis 2:2-3 
  • Sabbath = to cease= one 24-hour period each week that is devoted to rest from your work. 

Exodus 5:18
Exodus 20:8-11 

A Framework for a Great Sabbath. 
the key first step is to figure out the WHEN 

  1. Unplug. 
  2. Gather 
  3. Worship 
  4. Rest / Recreate 

Next Step 
  • Son of God/ Son of Man theme
  • Discipleship question: How does this picture of Jesus compel me to live differently? 
  • Follow-up question: What small step could I take this week toward a healthy sabbath rhythm?
