When Jesus was asked about fasting, He knew what the people were thinking.
What is your attitude to Jesus?
Do you doubt what He tells you?
We need to change to receive Jesus' teaching and put our trust in Him.
The Parable of New Cloth on Old Garment
Jesus Is Asked About Fasting
33 Some of the people who were there said to Jesus, “John’s disciples often pray and go without eating. So do the disciples of the Pharisees. But yours go on eating and drinking.”
34 Jesus answered, “Can you make the friends of the groom fast while he is with them? 35 But the time will come when the groom will be taken away from them. In those days they will go without eating.”
36 Then Jesus gave them an example. He said, “No one tears a piece out of new clothes to patch old clothes. Otherwise, they will tear the new clothes. Also, the patch from the new clothes will not match the old clothes. 37 No one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the new wine will burst the skins. The wine will run out, and the wineskins will be destroyed. 38 No, new wine must be poured into new wineskins. 39 After drinking old wine, no one wants the new. They say, ‘The old wine is better.’ ”
