Point is, it's not those who firmly stand upon the crystal-clear teaching of Scripture whom are to be considered as "Pharisees" (can't you folks come up with something new BTW - *Sigh*) - but rather those who "make the Word of God of no effect through your tradition" .


Hence, it YOU who is the "Pharisee" - not those who stand on what is clearly written:


11 A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. 12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet. 13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner....I am writing you these instructions so that, 15 if I am delayed, you will know how people ought to conduct themselves in God’s household, which is the church.


Still there - & will be even after y'all are finished tampering with it !

You are so predictable with your copy/paste jobs. LOL. I don't even think you read what people write, but just pick from your copy/paste job notes randomly. sigh.

You didn't even realize that I was speaking about the attitude of the Pharisees. Jesus never condemned them for doing the right things by obeying the law, but condemned them for adding more than was necessary, and for their attitudes.

It is far better to stand before the Lord in humbleness, humility, with some error in doctrine, rather than stand to before the Lord high, mighty, proud, and arrogant because of accomplishments, and perfect doctrines, and law-keeping, and be found wanting and lacking in His sight.

For if there is one thing that rings true throughout scripture is the fact that men make mistakes. Big mistakes. But the thing that always touches the heart of God is humility, and a contrite spirit.

From the mouth of Jesus, a parable that still speaks loud and clear today:

Luke 18:9-14
9 And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:

10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.

11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.

12 I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.

13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.

14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
