Jesus left no rooms for doubts about His approach to stale religion. Consistently He warned religious people that their priorities, traditions, prejudices and addiction to the familiar was costing them greatly. Their spirits are stale. Their souls were running dry. To make matters worse, Jesus indicted them for reproducing their empty religious ways in the lives of others. He did not come to join them. Jesus intended to exchange dead religion for new wine. Any commitment to clutching old wineskins would result in the people missing what Jesus came to pour out. When God ordains a time of refreshing, the old has to go so that the new can come. This message both enlightens and motivates us to part with all our old wineskins and anticipate that new wine from Heaven is already being poured out by the Spirit.
