Doctrinal Purity?

The Pharisees thought they were chosen for the cause of defending God's purity and justice, through separating themselves from "sinners." But separation had turned to excuse to obey only the letter of the law, and truly it had become an excuse to disobey God Himself.

In this video Jesus teaches where doctrinal purity is discovered with God.



The sinner in repentance, or the keeper of the scriptures to defend their purity -- who is the one justified?

While in this age we cannot hope to escape theological imperfection. Can you imagine that the LORD would refuse to be intimate with us, for this or any other reason, while we are obedient to the Shema?

Those who are eager to judge will be judged and shatter their adherency:

Now you, if you call yourself a Jew; if you rely on the law and brag about your relationship to God; if you know his will and approve of what is superior because you are instructed by the law; if you are convinced that you are a guide for the blind, a light for those who are in the dark, an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of infants, because you have in the law the embodiment of knowledge and truth—you, then, who teach others, do you not teach yourself? ... You who brag about the law, do you dishonor God by breaking the law? As it is written: "God's name is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you."
