breaking rules for jesus

In abandoning everything to follow Jesus, we have no choice but to mirror his footsteps! Jesus did not sin, wasn’t afraid to shout the truth, and broke laws and regulations to help others and fulfill God’s wondrous plan. When we surrender our lives completely over to God, the urge to back down and cower in fear is often overpowering, but we must not be afraid of fear, and must be willing to break the laws set by humans, but respecting and keeping the laws set by the Rule Maker God! Many times this means breaking the worldly rules to do God’s will, and when we push past the barriers of regulations, things can get a little hectic and—admittedly—pretty intimidating! Jesus will show us down a path he has paved for our lives, a path that will undoubtedly cross with the treading of conflict. When this happens, we—modeling Jesus, our Savior, Master and Best Bud—mustn’t fear going against the grain and breaking a few human rules as long as we stick to the holy, sacred laws set up by God. Jesus constantly broke the laws and regulations—as expressed in the last post—and as being bred in the likeness of Jesus and as his blood has saved us, we are expected to do the same when necessary for the pleasing of God. Note, don't break human laws when breaking them would go against God's laws; a few examples of human laws to be broken are the laws of segregation, racism, prejudice, and laws condemning others, etc. What's worse: breaking human laws or breaking God’s laws?
