In John 5, Jesus responds to the religious leader’s accusations of His breaking the Sabbath. He doesn’t posit a careful consideration of all the nuances of the Sabbath observance, rather, He simply posits Himself as Lord of the Sabbath; declaring Himself to be God. John 5:16-24 is Jesus’ legal defense of His divinity. It is worth our careful consideration. Listen to Pastor Steve’s sermon from John 5:16-24.
