Gospel of Matthew
Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg

In this message, Steve Gregg discusses the denunciations that Jesus made against the scribes and Pharisees, who were the religious leaders of their time. He highlights the irony of the Pharisees who traveled far and wide to win converts but ended up becoming bad role models themselves, leading their converts astray. Gregg emphasizes the importance of being truthful and honest in our dealings, reminding us that God expects us to act with integrity in all aspects of our lives.
