Sermon Notes
Still in ‘Holy Week’
Warning of bad teaching of scribes of His day
- Scribes were subset of pharisees
- Scribes knew and interrupted The Law
- But Talmud (Jewish legal book) said it was more important to listen to scribes than obey Gods’s word
- They had an outward appearance to impress followers
- Took advantage of defenseless people – windows and orphans. Showed their true character
- Wordy and long prayers to impress people instead of God
- Face special condemnation
Jesus
- Patience and kindness to prostitutes and tax-collectors
- The accomplices of Hell were the religious leaders of Jesus’ day. Condemning selves and others w/ their teachings
False Teachers
- disguise themselves as good / ‘angels of light’
- Today = Emergent movement / prosperity gospel / social gospel
- Those that distort God’s Word on purpose
- Also those that are not paying attention / care to the Truth
We should hate somethings
- sin in our lives and lives of others
- false teachers
Nothing should be a priority over the Gospel
- Social
- Sports
- Politics
- Hobbies
Things will change w/ more preaching of the Gospel
Bible Verses
— Luke 20:45-47
