Questions and Answers About the Inside Story of the Bible

Why did Jesus and His disciples not observe the Sabbath? If He were to observe the Sabbath, to practice the commandments of the Old Testament, then why, after His coming, did He not observe the Sabbath, but washed others’ feet and covered His head, broke bread and drank wine? Were these commandments mentioned in the Old Testament? If Jesus were to adhere to the Old Testament, why did He break these rules? You must know which came first, God, or the Bible? As He is the Lord of the Sabbath, can’t He also be the Lord of the Bible?” (“Concerning the Bible (1)” in The Word Appears in the Flesh). Over so many years, we all thought any belief apart from the Bible was a heresy. Today, after reading Almighty God’s word, we know God never works according to the Bible or works by consulting the Bible, much less does He look for paths in the Bible to lead His followers. Rather, He’ll do a newer work and bestow to man a newer way beyond the Bible. Brothers and sisters, God is the Ruler of all things. He is not only the Lord of the Sabbath but the Lord of the Bible. God is fully entitled to do a newer work according to His own plan and the need of mankind. So, “outside the Bible, there are no God’s word and work, and any belief apart from the Bible is a heresy,” this saying is untenable.
