"Unrightfully". That right there. They are like the Rabbi, and the other individuals, that passed by the man on the street that was later helped by a Samaritan. Men who call themselves"Godly" and "righteous" hate fews things more than being called out as a hypocrite. The solution? Character assassination of those who would call them out.

it is true that in an effort to seek perfection they utterly cast aside a personal relationship with God Himself but that doesn't mean they couldn't interpret the law

No he was breaking the Jews relations not God's.

Regulations

ik but he was still human

in human body*

He was showing them they were breaking God's law by trying to set these fences up around it

so by misinterpreting they law the were breaking it

k thank you for taking the time to answer my question

If a law, or as Derek put it, regulations, inhibits a truely good act, it is morally justified to break it. You follow what God, or in this case Jesus, says. What Jesus said was in his actions. It was right.

They thought that if the didn't walk a certain distance then they were keeping the sabbath for sure. But christ was explaining that's not the point. The point is to learn to have God's mind, there are weightier matters of the law justice mercy and faith.... ox's fall into ditches. People need help, but sometimes you shoot ther ox lol

Np

This has been a very enjoyable exchange but I must bid for the time being. Dinner awaits. Farewell.

The pharisees didn't interpret the law rather add to the law making the lives of Jews terrible. Mark 3: 4 "Then Jesus asked them, 'Which is lawful on the sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or kill?' But they remained silent.

What it do though?

Howdy partners

The Pharisees also were only asking Christ those kind of questions in an attempt to have Him say something they could accuse Him for

Is that much of a surprise? Jack***es like that know s*** they say will get a reaction, so they say the most insufferably obnoxious bs imaginable.

Why on Earth did it change jackass and shit to that?

You put asterisks so it bolded/italicized

Oh. Well I feel like an idiot now.

lol I make the same mistake all the time

Don’t worry about it. We all knew what you meant

I was erring on the side of caution and censored my profanity. Evidently the discord gods we're displeased.

Lol

You can still use dashes and random symbols 😉

Much abliged for the advice, my good sir.

Anyone have any prayer requests

?

Well, my youth group is going virtual again.

I honestly don't know... When I think of which people I wish to pray for, I struggle to decide who would be at the forefront of my mind. I hear of so much barbarity in the world and I, on some occasions, feel so small. I question whether others think the same, or if I am but a single ember, in a lonely night. Whether so many things... The killing of farmers in South Africa, imprisonment of my Christian Brothers and Since who imprisoned or tortured because of there faith, the ignoring of discrimination against Catholics in China, or the Muslims in China who are imprisoned. It feels like it's to much and that if I don't remember them, no one will. I apologise if this seemed long winded. At times I grow to lazy to stop.

My family, might sister in particular, is going though a rough time, she’s made some bad decisions, some she doesn’t see a problem with. She’s lost without realizing it.
I myself have been struggling with a repetitive sin and am having real trouble breaking out of it.
So I would ask for prayers for me, my sister, and the rest of my family for guidance, wisdom, strength, and a growing relationship with the Lord.

@ZSLiby Studios I have two in person youth groups in my area. One is small groups and the other is one big group.

I honestly don’t know how the second one is legal with Newsom’s crazy regulations, but I don’t care at all.

@Porcupioneer were there 2 comments before yours? I see " Today at 9:18" and a pencil mark, but no words.

This is what I see

I hope it clears up your confusion

Ok.
