Scripture: But when the
Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sad'ducees, they came together. 35 And one of them, a lawyer,
asked him a question, to test him. Matt 22:34-35
Reflection: When
you have an enmity with someone then better be careful! You may for the sake of
condemning that someone may join hands with a more comfortable and devious enemy.
All this is done in order to condemn the more righteous enemy. This righteous one may in actual reality be
your friend, except that he irritates you by his nagging corrections.
Pharisees
and Sadducees were no great friends, in fact they looked down on each other but
for convenience they came together seeking to condemn Christ Jesus.
Why
does it happen? Because our judgments are wrong, we could be looking at the
immediate wrong and forget the larger wrong.
We are short sighted in our outlook.
Prayer: Open
our eyes Lord so that we may see things as you see them.
