Hello, I am Pastor Matthew Verhoog of the Valley Alliance Church and I'm going to explain Luke 5:33 to 6:11 in Three minutes.
Jesus says in verse 37
“no one puts new wine into old wineskins; otherwise the new wine will burst the skins and it will be spilled out, and the skins will be ruined. "But new wine must be put into fresh wineskins.”
 Luke 6:37-38

Wine-skins were animal skins that would be sewn up with wine in them, when they were new and fresh they stretched to accommodate the wine's fermentation. If they were too old they would not stretch and burst. 

Three stories around this parable explain it's meaning.
1) The First is about Jesus disciples, Not Fasting

"And Jesus said to them, "You cannot make the attendants of the bridegroom fast while the bridegroom is with them, can you?" Luke 5:34

 Jesus's disciples do not fast because the bridegroom, and OT image representing God, is with them. Because God in the flesh, Jesus has come the practice of Religion must change. Instead of longing and self-denial, religiosity is best expressed in peace and fulness of joy in Christ.

2) Now it happened that He was passing through some grainfields on a Sabbath; and His disciples were picking the heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands, and eating the grain. 2 But some of the Pharisees said, "Why do you do what is not lawful on the Sabbath?" Luke 6:1-2

 Taking a snack is ok according to Deuteronomy 23:25, but what you cannot do is reap and prepare food on the sabbath according to Jewish tradition. Jesus responds to their critique with a story about David, how he went to the tabernacle and took 5 loaves that, by law, only the priests could eat. 
 Jesus is greater than David, and so just like David could rightly set aside minor laws in an emergency. Jesus is the "Lord of the sabbath"(Luke 6:6) and it is his interpretation of the Sabbath is final.

3) Jesus heals a man who had a paralysed hand on the Sabbath day. He does it right infront of the Pharisee’s, saying, "I ask you, is it lawful to do good or to do harm on the Sabbath, to save a life or to destroy it?” Luke 6:8-9
 This healing provokes the pharisee's into a rage in which they want to kill Jesus. 

 These three stories show us what Jesus means by new wine requiring new wine-skins. Jesus is going to make a clean break with the old wine-skins of the Old Testament Forms of Worshiping God. In Christ, the bridegroom had come, the new and greater David had arrived. And so a new vessel, the Chruch is going to be required to contain the bubbling wine of the coming Spirit. The old wineskins of Temple and sacrifice must pass away.
