Justice, Mercy, and Faith

Reading from The Gospel According Matthew 23:23-39 (NLT) ~Jesus Criticizes the Religious Leaders Cont.~ Scripture reading followed by discussion. God’s word tells us that God will be the champion over our lives. Jesus sees into our hearts. Jesus’ pain behind this scolding.  Justice with Mercy vs. justice with vengeance. The call to self-reflect on Jesus’ words. Psalms 118:22-26. The door is still open, there is still opportunity to repent and live differently.
