Our paragraph topic is: (The leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees) Part 1.
The Pharisees and the Sadducees came with their demon conceived plans to trick him. They wanted a sign from heaven to make them believe, so they said. And Christ told them how they could understand. He gave them a sign that they already had. But the demons inside wanted their plans put into action. They were the evil inside the evil doers. They were the influence that spoke to the Pharisees and the Sadducees. They were the ones. Christ warned them that he would visit them and that would be their sign. He would come to hell for three days and bring destruction to their plans. For their sign was the sign of Jonas in the belly of the whale. And with this he left them. He left the presence of evil in the Pharisees and the Sadducees.
And while they were crossing the sea, Christ warned his disciples of the plague. He warned them of the leaven of the evildoers. For Satan had influenced the Pharisees and the Sadducees and they in turn spread the plague. They spread the leaven to the people and throughout the world. They were contaminated first. They received the leaven. They held the
original strain and were the carriers of the resident evil. Yet many were not aware. Many did not know. And the evil spread amongst the people without hindrance. And Christ warned his disciples to be on guard. And when his disciples crossed the sea, they found that they had forgotten to bring bread. And he said to them, "Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees!"
Are you aware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees today? What are the influences that they play in our lives? We see it everywhere, on the TV, in the movies, in magazines, on the Internet, in the news, on billboards, wherever we look, we see, hear, and accept the leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees. It is accepted as a part of our lives. It is a constant assault on the spiritual purity of our souls. It is handed down to us as we are children. It is fed to us as we become teens. It becomes our desires as we mature. And yet it is not until we face destruction in our lives that we wake and become somewhat aware of the leaven that has become a part of us.
Save the children! Protect the teens! Guard the mature against the leaven that we live with in our lives. If the destruction of the world came today many would be lost to the leaven. Many would face damnation. Many would not know the love and the gift that God, our Father, has provided to us through Christ Jesus. For without belief in him we are dead, without life, without the light of new life that comes through Christ. Are there no alternatives to leaven? Are there not antidotes? Is there no solution to what has become so much apart of what we accept today as ordinary and common? We go to church on Sunday and neglect the other six days of the week to return to the leaven of the world. Wake up my brothers and sisters! We have work to do. Open your minds and your hearts that you may be saved and be born again in Christ. For without new birth we are dead inside. We have no life. We have not the light of Christ within us but only darkness. Here is a trail to follow. Christ awaits you. Come receive the light of the Holy Spirit and be born again.
Read the signs of the times! Read the Highlighted New Testament Bible and lift the scales from your eyes that you may see, that you may know, that you may find the truth of who you are in Christ. Read it as though you would read a good book, from cover to cover, and see for yourself. Do not study it in parts reading one passage and then skipping to another, but read it for understanding. Read it for knowledge. Read it for faith. Read it that your eyes may be opened, that your ears may hear, that your heart may be filled with the light of Christ. The Holy Spirit awaits you. Christ seeks to know you. Open the door and let him in!
