Mark 3:2 – Their Actions vs Our Attitudes
Check yourself (I know I’m guilty), to see if:
1. You read posts to find something wrong.
2. You watch others, waiting on them to fail you.
If these sound familiar, then who are we like? Let’s notice Mark 3:2.
1. “They (scribes and Pharisees) were watching Him (Jesus)”
ISN’T WATCHING JESUS SUPPOSED TO BE A GOOD THING?
2. “to see if He would heal him on the Sabbath”
WILL THESE WATCHERS THINK DOING GOOD ON THE SABBATH IS A GOOD THING?
3. “so that they might accuse Him.”
OUR ATTITUDE CAN BE BAD EVEN WHEN WE THINK OTHER’S ACTIONS ARE WRONG.
Here is the application and lesson for us – our attitude can be worse than the wrong we are looking for in others.
