Jesus Warns about the Pharisees’ and Sadducees’ Teaching: Matthew 16:5-12
Preacher: Eric Douma Series: Matthew Scripture: Matthew 16:5–12
In this message, taken from Matthew 16:5-12, we learn about the problems of the Pharisee’s and Sadducee’s doctrine. We learn to avoid their cynicism of unbelief in the face of tremendous evidence, and their irrational hatred of Christ that they exhibited during Jesus’ earthly ministry.
We also learn that the religious leaders of Israel were dedicated to elevating their traditions above Scripture and works above grace through faith in salvation.
Come and hear for yourself why the doctrines of the Pharisees and Sadducees are alive and well in many false teachings today, and how we can avoid them in
our lives and ministry.
