Hypocrites!

We find ourselves in somewhat familiar territory. As we continue along with the Red-Letter journey, Jesus has just been tested by all of the religious elite. He then turns His attention to the crowd and certainly within earshot of those who just tested him and basically says - Don't Be Like Them! Listen to them but don't act like them.

Honestly, because the message was so familiar, I found some diversions within the text that we had not address. Some personal, like is it OK to wear religious sayings.

One thing we started to recognize was how much the Catholic church resembles the Jewish orthodoxy with it's hierarchy and its structure. You should see some eyebrows raised.

Then we noticed something else - levels of judgement. I'm not sure I'm clear on this but my only thought is all fire is hot!

So... RABBIT HOLES! But that's OK! That's what we do!
