Some NEW thoughts on Life!
"Amateurs built Noah's Ark; professionals built the Titanic!"
Yes indeed! In thinking about Scripture lately it has just hit me, what has been obvious to so many. The MOST highly-educated people of Jesus's day were the Scribes, Pharisees, and Sadducees. And, these folks, with few exceptions, totally MISSED who Jesus was (is)!! So? So, our MOST highly-educated theologians are perhaps at greater risk than those with "ears to hear"!
This does NOT mean, don't study, it does mean, don't rely on KNOWLEDGE as a substitute for a personal relationship with Jesus--and listening ears!
Our culture elevates education, and often forgets RELATIONSHIP!
Let us LEARN from the negative examples before us.
