The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In part two of his talk, Steve Gregg discusses Jesus' statement in Matthew 11:25 about revealing things to "babes" rather than to the "wise and prudent." He explains that Jesus is referring to the burdens of legalistic religious observances, and that he offers a lighter burden for his followers. Gregg also discusses the story of Jesus' forgiveness of a sinful woman, who anointed his feet with costly oil. He challenges the assumption that this woman was Mary Magdalene and suggests that the story may have been conflated with another similar incident.
