Yikes is right. An implied accusation of being a Pharisee (that IS who Jesus was talking to in that passage, right?). Now Jesus of course, being God, could see right into their heart motives. Um, that’s above your pay-grade and mine. If I were a moderator here (and you can all be glad I am not) I would track these motive-bashing posts like a hawk and remove all of them. They contribute NOTHING to the understanding of the Gospel of Jesus or the redemptive plan of God, nor even one tiny iota to the evaluation of the premise of the OP’s article. Where is the substance? Where is the beef?
Please pray with me that the Father bless and correct us.
