START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION
(KJV) Mark 12:39-39
And he said unto them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes, which love to go in long clothing, and love salutations in the marketplaces, 39 And the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms at feasts:
LIKE … THE MOST IMPORTANT SEATS / MARK 12:38-39
Jesus warns His followers to watch out for religious leaders who seek recognition and honor from others. Because the motives and desires of their hearts are not true toward God, He labels them as hypocrites (Matthew 23:13-15, 23, 25, 29; and Matthew 23:13) and describes them as frauds and deceivers who only appear to be in a right relationship with God (Matthew 23:25-28). Such persons are not guided by the desires and direction of God’s Holy Spirit; they are controlled by their own sinful desires (Romans 8:5-14). As long as they remain in this condition, they cannot “escape being condemned to hell” (Matthew 23:33; Matthew 23:13).
