The actions of the scribes and Pharisees were a self-incriminating testimony. They were sons of their fathers, and would fill up the measure of their fathers sins. How would they do this?

The Pharisees claimed they were not like their fathers. Their fathers murdered the prophets. Who were their fathers? The answer to this question is easy, if we allow the Bible to interpret the Bible. This begins the last of 8 woes upon the scribes and Pharisees of Yeshua's day.

The Pharisees were so focused on the small things that they neglected the big things. So focused on washing the outside of the cup that they forgot to make sure the inside was washed. We are pros at making ourselves look good, but looking good is not what matters. We need to be changed from the inside, out.

Yeshua begins to pronounce the woes of a prophet upon the scribes and Pharisees. He does not ease up on them, but calls them hypocrites, blind guides, and fools. Why such harshness?

Holiness is not outward show. Outward show can be performed without there ever being a inward change of heart. Our good deeds should flow from the inside out, but we should always give ALL of the glory to our heavenly Father that enables us.

It's good to have leaders, teachers in a community, but leaders can become corrupt. Corrupt leaders leads to corrupt citizens and lopsided teaching. Listen to learn about the corrupt, first century leaders, and about their incorrect method in teaching Biblical law.

People confess Christ, but walk away from the faith. When that happens, those of us who remain in the faith should see such a person as a lost sheep that needs to be found and brought back into the fold.

My entire life I have heard people in church say that we are currently living in the last days (or the last of the last days). How do they know? What Bible verses have they shown us to prove this? It may surprise you to discover what the Bible has said all along about the last days.

When we begin to understand the judgment language in the Old Testament, we will begin to understand what the prophet Joel was speaking of (Joel 2:28-32), and how Peter applied Joel's prophecy in the first century (Acts 2:16-21).

Recognizing the symbolic language in Scripture concerning the sun, moon, and stars will aid greatly in understanding what Joel's prophecy (Joel 2:28-32) means.
