I take it that you mean Matt. Ch. 9v17. If this is so then Christ is comparing a man who has not acepted His teaching as an old wine bottle or skin as was used then. When one accepts Christs teachings you have to be cleansed from all your sins for you to enjoy the blessings of His teachings, in other words you have to become as a new bottle or skin. If however you are still leaning towards your old ways but wish to try our these new ideas of Christ, the old ways or old skin or bottle will clash with that which is new and possibly break. This is why you need to be a new person (Bottle) to accept the new wine (Christs words).

I hope this clears it up for you. You can always email me.
