New wineskins scripture

The "new wineskins" scripture is Matthew 9:14-17, Mark 2:18-22, and Luke 5:33-39. Here's the passage:

Matthew 9:14-17 (NIV): "Then John's disciples came and asked him, 'How is it that we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples do not fast?' Jesus answered, 'How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while he is still with them? The time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast. No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch will pull away from the garment, tearing the new from the old. You must also tear away the new cloth and sew a new patch on the old garment so that the tear will be repaired. Otherwise, the new patch will pull away, too, and you will tear the new cloth."

Mark 2:18-22 (NIV): "The disciples of John the Baptist came to him and asked, 'Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples do not fast?' Jesus replied, 'How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while he is still with them? The time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast. No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch will pull away from the garment, tearing the new from the old. And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.'"

Luke 5:33-39 (NIV): "Some of the Pharisees asked his disciples, 'Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?' Jesus answered them, 'It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.' Then John's disciples came and asked him, 'How is it that we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples do not fast?' Jesus replied, 'How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while he is still with them? The time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast. No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch will pull away from the garment, tearing the new from the old. And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.'"

In this passage, Jesus is using the analogy of new wineskins to explain why his disciples don't fast like the Pharisees and John the Baptist's disciples do. He's saying that just as new wine needs new wineskins to preserve it, so too do his disciples need a new way of living, free from the constraints of traditional Jewish law and customs. The old wineskins represent the old way of thinking and living, which is no longer suitable for the new wine of God's kingdom.
