The Bridegroom & the Lord of the Sabbath - Roydon Frost - (Sunday 15 February 2026)
This sermon explores how Jesus, as the Bridegroom and Lord of the Sabbath, redefines traditional religious practices by inviting His followers into joy and freedom rather than legalistic observance. Using the Gospel narrative from Mark 2:18–28, the Pastor Roydon Frost contrasts the Pharisees’ rigid fasting and Sabbath rules with Jesus’ teaching that His presence brings celebration, rest, and true spiritual renewal. Frost emphasises that Jesus fulfils God’s law with love and mercy, showing that Sabbath rest and fasting both have their place within a life shaped by relationship with Christ. Ultimately, the talk challenges all of us to reflect on how their behaviour reveals their understanding of God’s nature and to live with joyful obedience as they journey toward the eternal feast.
