Today is the Tuesday that Jesus spoke about the Pharisees and scribes.
And called them all hypocrites, liars, gluttons, prideful: Undeserving.
'Its so sad for you, you who think its all about how you look next to God rather than how you feel bowing at his feet. "You shut the kingdom of heaven in people's faces. For you neither enter yourselves not allow those who would enter to go in." '
Jesus was not a little mad, he was furious.
You know how you get when you are more than mad. It seems like the blood inside of you raises its temperature and the heat makes even more mad. I can't imagine how hot Jesus' blood got.
And to think it was those same religious hypocrites who would expose that same blood.
I think I am and I know I have seen and been around people who are just like those leaders Jesus is talking about.
I am not saying they (the people I know and myself included) do things that are "stumbling blocks"... blah blah blah with that saying.
I am saying that we do not take things seriously.
Its really still all about us.
even if you go give money away to people who need it to buy food, clothes, pay rent or support their children.
even if you spend your time doing things for others.
even if you just sit there and think you were productive.
I don't really know where I am going with this. But I do know that I want to know what happened every single day before Jesus is brought back to life.
Brought back to life. I don't like how that doesn't shock me, or anyone, anymore.
