    Our Traditions Series

    Contributed by Tim White on Dec 5, 2011

     | 10,885 views

    Jesus reveals the danger associated with traditions when they vie for a place among the sacred. In revealing the hypocrisy of the Pharisees, He clarified the lifestyle of dependence expected of His disciples.

    Our Traditions Mark 7:1-23 (17-23) Why would some people buy a cat and tie it to the bedpost to show their reverence to God? Many years ago, a very poor holy man lived in a remote part of China. Every day before his time of meditation, in order to show his devotion, he put a dish of butter up on ...read more

    Jesus is confronted by the religious elite that His disciples weren’t washing correctly. Jesus tells the Pharisical hypocrites they have more problems than that to worry about.

    Pollution in the Soul Then the Pharisees and some of the scribes came together to Him, having come from Jerusalem. Now when they saw some of His disciples eat bread with defiled, that is, with unwashed hands, they found fault. For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they wash their ...read more

    What is a true Christ follower?

    A few years ago I was driving to the Adirondack Mountains where I would spend a week in the Whitney Wilderness area. My canoe was on top of the car, my backpack and other equipment was in the back and I was set for the long trip to upper state New York. Driving that far is a little boring so I ...read more

    I fear too often we major on the minor things and neglect the greater aspects of our faith and service unto the Lord. Jesus confronted the hypocrisy and neglect of the Pharisees. This passage reveals similarities to the modern church.

    Clean Hands and Defiled Hearts Mark 7: 1-23 It has been a while since we’ve heard from the scribes and Pharisees, but they were a continual nuisance to the Lord as He ministered among the people. It appears they followed Jesus as often as they could, seeking any means to accuse Him and discredit ...read more

    God's chosen people must recount His mighty acts among themselves.

    “Do not add to what I command you and do not subtract from it, but keep the commands of the Lord your God that I give you” (Dt. 4:1,2). Keeping the law was to be Israel’s fame among the nations. Israel was not to be known for its wealth (although Solomon’s riches were ...read more

    God is concerned with true worship from the heart, not outward observances.

    “The Pharisees and some of the scribes gathered around Him when they had come from Jerusalem, 2 and had seen that some of His disciples were eating their bread with impure hands, that is, unwashed. 3 (For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they carefully wash their hands, thus ...read more

    The condition of your heart is what determines your status with God, not the rituals and traditions you follow.

    Introduction Have you ever asked someone a question and found you had touched a raw nerve? The other person swells up with emotion and then unleashes a tirade. “I’ve had enough of people asking me…” “You want to know my opinion? I’ll be glad to give you my ...read more

    Sin Is A Heart Problem! Series

     | 7,897 views

    How God tells you to live is infinitely more important than how others think you should live! This is what Pharisees couldn't grasp. The challenge for us also is: Do not get a big head about it and become arrogant and/or unteachable.

    Sin … It’s a Heart Problem! Mark 7:8-23, 1 John 1:8-10 Introduction - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” -- Key verse: Mark 10:45, “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for ...read more

     | 4,414 views

    Because we want others to approve of us, we feel a pressure to displace some of God’s commands with peer group rules or trends.

    The Danger of Displacement (Mark 7:1-13) 1. One of my favorite Jewish jokes (I have told before) is the following: 2. A Jewish congregation was arguing over whether one should stand or sit during the Shema Yisrael. Half of the congregation said one should sit, the other half insisted one should ...read more

    When is it time to challenge church leadership as to whether or not they are following the Scripture? The last was 1517 and we called that the Reformation. It is time for another Reformation.

    Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz Mark 7:1-13 For 2000 years, the church has been creating ordinances for the people of God to follow. Many of these ordinances are not based on biblical Scripture but on the theological beliefs developed over the centuries. For example, in the Catholic Church, a priest ...read more

    Defilement Comes From Within Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 22, 2021
     | 3,765 views

    It is not the food you eat or religious observation you practice that enables you to claim that you are right with God. Your attitude, behavior, and response to His commands show whether or not your life is defiled before Him.

    Worship is supposed to come from a grateful heart and mind, focused on how God's mercy and grace has taken us off of the road to hell and by the redemptive work of Jesus Christ on our behalf, placed us on the narrow road leading to eternal life. Our submission to Him as Lord and Savior, ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 16,196 views

    God’s desire is for us to be builders of people (our family, fellow church members, co-workers, spouse, and kids). How can we do this? Let’s look at the negative example of the Pharisees and turn it into some positive principles.

    How to Be a Builder (not a Bulldozer) Mark 7:1-23 Introduction: 1. At the time of Jesus’ ministry to Israel, the Pharisees and scribes were the religious leaders who knew about the true God, knew the Scriptures, and knew about the prophecies of a coming Christ. 2. They didn’t appear ...read more
