God desires that our hearts belong to Him. He desires that the faith we profess and practice will in fact be the same faith He calls us to…faith based on His Word of promise. Loved by God who gave us His Son, we will respond with faith that loves God with all our heart.

The problems with tradition.

College Hill Presbyterian Church

Jesus exposes the hypocrisy of the Pharisees 'from Jerusalem' in this text. They charge Jesus of breaking the 'tradition of the elders' and Jesus reveals that they break God's great command to honor mother and father by caring for them in their golden years. The hypocritical know-it-alls actually did not know the true meaning of God's Law since they did not practice it with pure hearts. Jesus demanded that pure worship, not the focus of washing hands, conformed to the spirit and truth of God the Father. In other words, Jesus expects that we bring our experience of worship into conformity with what is true about God the Father, true about Jesus the Son, and to let our spirits to be authentically awakened and moved by that truth.

Ce qui à le plus mis en colère Jésus c'était bien l'hypocrisie religieuse.

In this passage, Jesus confronts the Pharisees with a head-on collision of truth vs tradition. Jesus exposes how they were worshiping the fences that they had erected around their religion and were missing out on Jesus! Isn't it easy for us to do the same? I pray that God will use this message to help you get your eyes off the 'religion' of Christianity and to put them on Jesus!

Are you following tradition more than truth?

Traditions were do they come from and what are there purpose? Jesus addresses this topic one day and reorientates it towards himself.

I am a recovering Pharisee, and you’re one, too, but don’t worry— Jesus is a great Savior.

Are we consumed with merely looking good on the outside or truly being changed from the inside?

En el encuentro con Jesús de esta semana, él expuso una mega-tranza que los religiosos de su día practicaban.

Not only were these traditions common in Jesus' time, but they are also easily identified in churches today. Most importantly we learn Jesus' take on religious traditions and the danger they pose to us when they go beyond God's Word.

Your love of Christ is revealed in your love for the Word of God.

Jesus was confronted with the soul-destroying effects of religious hypocrisy driven by adherence to human tradition over God's Word. Does truth foster in you a heart relationship with God or does tradition breed external religion in your life? Do you have a love for truth that upholds Scripture as the supreme authority or does tradition supersede it? Listen and find out.
