Confrontation Continues (Part 1)
The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this presentation, Steve Gregg discusses the ongoing confrontation between Jesus and religious leaders such as the Pharisees and Sadducees during his time. Jesus uses parables and questions to reveal the hypocrisy of the religious leaders and emphasize the importance of loving God and one's neighbor. Though initially opposed, some Pharisees eventually acknowledge Jesus as the Son of God. Additionally, Jesus challenges the Pharisees' understanding of the Messiah, pointing out that he is not only the son of David but also the son of God. Ceremonial laws and rituals are not necessary for salvation under the New Covenant, and consideration for others is more important than following specific religious symbols.
