Jesus' Warning To The Hypocrites

Jesus Christ did not mince words when it came to religious hypocrisy. That, more than anything else, is what got Him killed. His death was a staged assassination by a few religious hypocrites who The Lord was very effectively exposing to the people under their authority.


"Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and the measure you give will be the measure you get. Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when there is the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye." (Matthew 7:1-5 RSV)

"Beware of practicing your piety before men in order to be seen by them; for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven. Thus, when you give alms, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your alms may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you. And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you." (Matthew 6:1-6 RSV)

"Then Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem and said, "Why do Your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat." He answered them, "And why do you transgress the Commandment of God for the sake of your tradition? For God commanded, 'Honor your father and your mother,' and, 'He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him surely die.' But you say, 'If any one tells his father or his mother, What you would have gained from me is given to God, he need not honor his father.' So, for the sake of your tradition, you have made void the word of God. You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, when he said: 'This people honors Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me; in vain do they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.'" (Matthew 15:1-9 RSV)

2. I just not become like the freepers in my efforts to bring them around.
I think we should love everyone, even those who are pretty downright nasty.

3. You are either a bigger human than I can ever be or a total twit.
I’m not suggesting that I hate them as they hate us, or using their diabolical tactics. Truth should remain true. Still, I prefer to shun rather than hug my arms around the ditto-heads of this world. Believe me, it’s not for lack of trying.

Wait a minute. I think that I can pull together a finger puppet presentation that is sure to beguile them.

I guess I really do hate them for their ignorance and fear of what… I don’t know. Latent homosexuality is not a strong campaign platform. Calling out a racist just seems to empower them. Extended credit for bling-bling (and that includes groceries) has got us all by the short hairs. Oil cannot and will not sustain us, but there are tax breaks for purchasing an SUV.

SO, just who am I supposed to love or hug in Merka 2005?

4. I hate to pee on your parade....
but the freepers don't actually READ the bible, they just memorize a few passages from Deuteronomy (the portion of the bible dedicated to religious reform focusing on purifying religion, purging foreign sacred rites, and centralizing worship), and of course every homophobic and mysogonistic passage found in the Old and New Testaments...add a pinch of salvation by belief alone, and mix into a frothy brew of bible verses they can spew to back up their hatred and bigotry.....VIOLA, instant freeper faith.
