Luke 16:14-18 ESV: [14] The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, heard all these things, and they ridiculed him. [15] And he said to them, “You are those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For what is exalted among men is an abomination in the sight of God. [16] “The Law and the Prophets were until John; since then the good news of the kingdom of God is preached, and everyone forces his way into it. [17] But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one dot of the Law to become void. [18] “Everyone who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery, and he who marries a woman divorced from her husband commits adultery.
- Those attempting to justify themselves, love money and seek the approval of people are in big trouble.
- Jesus is the fulfillment of the Law and the Prophets. He alone is the answer.
- We who treasure Jesus enthusiastically live with integrity in all areas of life.
