THE PHARISEES

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:

MODERN DAY PHARISEES:

Characteristics of a "Modern-Day Pharisee":

4. Control & Power: One of the most ironic things about some modern-day Pharisaic attitudes is that many who once criticized and undermined others later become leaders themselves—even pastors. It makes one wonder whether they truly understood what they were opposing in the first place. After tearing down another man’s work, they step into the very role they once despised.

I shared a story earlier about a church where the servant of God was deeply frustrated by such individuals. They went as far as discouraging people from supporting him financially, spreading false information to isolate him. Later, some of those who were misled came back to confess what they had been told.

One of those Pharisees had two sons. They did terrible things to the man of God too. Making his years of effort meaningless. Surprisingly those two dudes are now Pastors. It raises a sobering question: what kind of leadership will they now offer, given the path they took? I'm not in God's position, but I don't think they will escape it.

Conclusion:

When influence and recognition begin to grow around you in any ministry, guard your heart carefully. Do not allow pride to take root. The distance between humility and pride is very small—almost unnoticed until it’s too late. Stay watchful.

Song:

It wasn't easy
It wasn't easy
It wasn't easy but it was worth it

Prayer: May the Lord liberate His Church from Modern-Day Pharisees. In Jesus name. Amen.
