Today’s GospeL Verses ~ Luke 11:37-54
37 - While Jesus was still speaking, a Pharisee invited him to dine with him at his house, so he went in and reclined at table. 38 The Pharisee was astonished to see that he did not wash before the meal. (A Pharisee traditional, ritual washing.) 39 So Jesus said to him, “Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and dish, but inside is full of greed and wickedness. 40 You unthinking! Didn’t he who made the outside make the inside also? 41 But if you give as alms those things that are within, then everything outside is clean also. 42 But woe to you Pharisees, for you tithe mint and rue and every herb, but neglect justice and the love of God. These you ought to have done, without neglecting the rest. 43 Woe to you Pharisees, for you love the best seats in the synagogue and greetings in the marketplace. 44 Woe to you, for you are like unmarked graves, which people walk over without knowing it.”
45 One of the scribes (lawyers) answered him, “Teacher, in saying these things you insult us also.” 46 And he said, “Woe to you lawyers also, for you load people with burdens hard to bear, and you yourselves don’t lift the burdens with even one of your fingers. 47 Woe to you, for you build the tombs of the prophets, whom your fathers killed. 48 So you are witnesses and consent to those killings, and so you build their tombs. 49 So also the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send them prophets and apostles, some of whom they will kill and persecute,’ 50 so that the blood of all the prophets, shed from the foundation of the world, may be charged against this generation, 51 from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary. Yes, I tell you, it will be required of this generation. (They must have done away with a Zechariah..? Or is this the prophet?) 52 Woe to you scribes, for you have taken away the key to knowledge. You don’t enter yourselves, and you block the way for those who are entering.”
53 And as he was leaving, the scribes and Pharisees began to pressure him, provoking him to speak about many things, 54 for they were trying to catch him in something he might say.

From New Testament Letters
(In the Order Believed Written)
~ James 4:12-17 -
12 - There is only one lawgiver. One judge. He (only) who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you? Who judges your neighbor?
13 And you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”— 14 yet you don’t know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a small time and then vanishes. 15 Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.” 16 As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is not good! 17 So whoever knows the right to do and fails to do it, for them it is sin [hamartia - missing the mark].
