Life of Jesus: Jesus and the Law, part 1

Why did God create us?  That's one of the most important questions of life, and it is the question that religion attempts to answer.  What does God want from us as His creatures?  Many religions answer that God somehow needs us--our belief, our sacrifices, our service.  Others answer that God created us simply to obey His rules.  Jesus reveals something else.  This week, we look at how Jesus clashed with the religious leaders of His day over the purpose and use of the law, and what He reveals is one of the key theological truths that defines the nature of our everyday relationship with God.
