Many of the people who came and sought Jesus Christ, received Him and His teachings. They saw Him heal and save these
people that gathered around Him. Many of these people, the common people and the hated tax collectors accepted Jesus and the holy truths that He taught, with the real testimonies and
actions of healings and salvation. They were baptized in Christ.
However, there were those Pharisees and lawyers who came to observe what Jesus did but did not believe and
would not submit to the Word of God. These were the religious leaders of the time who would not accept God’s truth, even though they should have been leading the people to God.
They did not lead the people to God, instead they misled the people. We have many religious leaders and other today who do not submit to Jesus Christ and the truths that He teaches.
In Luke 7, Jesus teaches us about how these people who work against the God’s truths, will also attack us for our love of and surrender to Jesus Christ. |
