Luke 11: 37-54; The Six Woes

Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.

It really is what is inside our hearts that truly matters. The Pharisees were notorious for only paying lip-service to God; they lived the law, perfectly, but their hearts were hardened and they did not love God or their fellow human beings. Remember what Jesus said about the Pharisees and fasting; that they always made a show about it and showed their suffering. Remember what Jesus said about the Pharisees and praying; that they prayed loudly in the streets so everyone could see. What we learn from this, and the six woes, is that it's not just what we do it is what we feel in our hearts. Faith is not just doing the deeds, faith is also love. We have to love God, and we have to love our neighbor as ourself. Let faith, and acts of faith, come from your heart. God bless you,

Pastor Josh
