Our study continues in Matthew 23 vs. 16. where Dr. Mitchell shares Jesus’s stern rebukes and indictments on the religious leaders of Israel.

Matthew records these words for us to read and hear.

This lesson focuses on the next 4 of these 8 indictments in verses 16 thru 28.

These four are:

1. Swearing an oath: Lack of distinguishing between the greater and the lesser.

2. Tithing: majoring on the minors and minoring on the majors.

3. Cleansing outwardly to cover up the sins inwardly.

4. Stressing the outward appearance but losing sight of the inward sins.

This lesson causes one to discover what the real focus is in life, both the known and the unknown.

We appreciate your joining us on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast with Dr. John G. Mitchell.

Let’s turn to Matthew 23:16-28.
