Tuesday, October 28 | Pharisees, Sadducees, and the Parable That Exposed Them

The rejection of Jesus by the Jewish leaders is a pivotal moment in history, as it marks a turning point in God's plan for salvation. The Pharisees and scribes, who were supposed to lead God's people in God's way, instead sought to establish their own righteousness and rejected Jesus. Paul explains in Romans 10 that this rejection was not due to ignorance, but rather a hard-hearted refusal to submit to God's righteousness. The passage highlights the importance of faith and confession in receiving salvation, and how the common people, who were not caught up in the religious mafia, were willing to believe and trust in Jesus for salvation.

Being a Man of the Word (Not the World)

The Christian worldview emphasizes the importance of biblical manhood, where men are called to lead, cultivate, and protect, but instead, society seeks to emasculate them. The church must reclaim biblical manhood by renewing the mind, which involves recognizing the propensity to conform to the world, embracing the responsibility to think Christianly, appreciating the mercy of God, and recognizing the right means to cultivate a renewed mind, such as time in the Word, fellowship, prayer, and singing hymns.
