In this passage, Jesus calls out the Pharisees and lawyers for turning faith into a show and a burden. The Pharisees looked good on the outside but their hearts were empty, chasing respect and honor while neglecting justice and love. The lawyers made religion heavy, piling on rules instead of helping people draw near to God. Jesus warns us, too: don’t let your faith become about appearances, and don’t make following him harder than it needs to be. Real faith starts in the heart, flows into authentic love, and points people to the simple truth of the gospel—believe, confess, and follow Jesus.Shameless plug: here’s a link to Method(ist) to the Madness, our new, hopefully entertaining podcast about church history. - https://methodisttothemadness.buzzsprout.com/Join us for our daily reflections with Andy.
