Topic: THE PHARISEES
Word: Matthew 23:2 NLT
“The teachers of religious law and the Pharisees are the official interpreters of the law of Moses.
Here’s My Take:
Jesus Encounter With The Pharisees:
Six days before the Passover celebration began, Jesus arrived in Bethany, the home of Lazarus—the man he had raised from the dead. A dinner was prepared in Jesus’ honor. Martha served, and Lazarus was among those who ate with him. Then Mary took a twelve-ounce jar of expensive perfume made from essence of nard, and she anointed Jesus’ feet with it, wiping his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance.
But Judas Iscariot said, “That perfume was worth a year’s wages. It should have been sold and the money given to the poor.” Not that he cared for the poor—he was a thief, and since he was in charge of the disciples’ money, he often stole some for himself. Jesus replied, “Leave her alone. She did this in preparation for my burial.
You will always have the poor among you, but you will not always have me.” When all the people heard of Jesus’ arrival, they flocked to see him and also to see Lazarus, the man Jesus had raised from the dead. Then the leading priests decided to kill Lazarus, too, for it was because of him that many of the people had deserted them and believed in Jesus. John 12:1-11 NLT
Conclusion:
Did you hear that "the leading priests decided to kill Lazarus, too, for it was because of him that many of the people had deserted them and believed in Jesus." What envy and jealousy cannot do in the heart of man is yet to be seen/known.
Song:
What will you do
When you see Jesus
What will you do
When you see Jesus
I'll sing holy, Holy
I'll join the Host of Angels
And sing Holy
I'll sing Holy, Holy
Is the Lamb, upon the Throne
Prayer:
May God deliver us from envious men. In Jesus name. Amen.
