I saw a clip on Fox. Ryan dares to speak to a hostile crowd. This is how you win converts. Jesus didn’t speak to the Saduccees and Pharisees, he went to the tax collectors and prostitutes. Preaching to the choir won’t win you any new votes.
The Saduccees and Pharisees were not his ‘choir.’ He said plainly that unless your righteousness EXCEEDED that of the Saduccees and Pharisees, you would not see the Kingdom of Heaven.
