A little light alliteration

I was scribbling a few notes for my short talk on Matthew 11:25ff at the nursing homes this afternoon and came up with a helpful way of remembering the main points of my talk:

"Jesus replaces a religion of rules with revelation and a relationship".

The heavy & burdensome yoke was the rule-based religion of the pharisees. Jesus comes with a revelation of God the Father, and invites us to know the Father in a relationship of love which is the easy and light yoke of Jesus (cf 1 John 5:3).
