Questions and Answers on Dissecting the Essence of the Pharisees
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
The root of the Pharisees’ resistance and condemnation of the Lord Jesus was that they did not revere God or search for the truth at all. Deep down, they were stubborn and arrogant; they did not obey the truth. The Pharisees defined God within their own conceptions and imaginings, within the literal words of the Bible. They kept the Messiah in name only. No matter how profound and correct the LordJesus’ preachings are, how His words are the truth, or how much authority or power His words have, because His name is not Messiah, the Pharisees opposed and condemned Him. Their principles of faith are exactly as Almighty Godsays, “No matter how profound Your preaching, no matter how high Your authority, You are not Christ unless You are called the Messiah”. Not only did the Pharisees not accept the truths expressed by the Lord Jesus, they tempted Him and tried to find fault with Him. For example, they tempted the Lord Jesus by asking what authority He used to perform miracles and purposely asked the Lord Jesus whether they could pay taxes to Caesar. They asked the Lord Jesus whether He was the Son of God, Christ, etc. The Lord Jesus struck back at their evil plans with truth and wisdom. The Pharisees had no strength to refute Him, yet they still did not search for the truth. They still fanatically resisted and condemned the Lord Jesus; they had the Lord Jesus arrested and demanded that He be nailed to the cross. It was just as the Lord Jesus said when He exposed them, “But now you seek to kill me, a man that has told you the truth, which I have heard of God… And if I say the truth, why do you not believe me?” (Jhn 8:40, 46). Therefore, we can see that the Pharisees, in nature and essence, were satanic demons, enemies of God that hated the truth! Brothers and sisters, what kind of people can hate and condemn Christ? The Pharisees’ story clearly demonstrates one fact: All who believe in God but do not love the truth, are weary of the truth and hate the truth do not know God. In addition, these people surely resist God and take Him as their enemy. Because Christ’s essence is the truth, the way, and the life, anyone who hates the truth also hates Christ. Many people that hate the truth seem good on the outside; they follow the rules of the Bible and do not seem like evil people at all, but when Christ comes to do His work, these satanic enemies of God will be completely exposed.

The Pharisees’ evil resistance and condemnation of the Lord Jesus completely exposes their demonic essence: They hate the truth and resist God. that when the Lord Jesus preached and did His work, He expressed many truths, displayed many miracles and gave people abundant grace. The Lord Jesus’ work shook the foundations of Judaism and shocked the Jewish state. Many people followed the Lord Jesus. The Pharisees knew that if the Lord Jesus continued to do His work, all of the faithful in Judaism would follow Him; Judaism would fall, and their positions and meal-tickets would disappear. Therefore, they decided to kill the Lord Jesus. Just as the Bible says, “Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man does many miracles. If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation. … Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to death” (John 11:47, 48, 53). To protect their status and meal-tickets, the Pharisees colluded with the Roman government to crucify the Lord Jesus on the cross. They said, “His blood be on us, and on our children” (Matthew 27:25). As you can see, the Pharisees hated the truth and hated Christ. They reached the point where they no longer wished to co-exist with Christ long ago! They would rather forsake their sin offering than not crucify the Lord Jesus; they would rather commit monstrous sins, resist God and offend God and have their sons and grandsons cursed than not nail the Lord Jesus to the cross, He who expresses the truth of redemption for mankind. That is the genuine, satanic, truth-hating nature and substance of the Pharisees. that when the Lord Jesus was nailed to the cross, the sun became dark, the earth shook and the curtain of the temple split open. After the Lord Jesus was resurrected, He appeared before men once again. After people learned these facts, they repented for their sins and turned to the Lord Jesus. As for the Pharisees? Not only did they not repent, but they became even more antagonistic enemies of the Lord Jesus. They paid off soldiers to bear false witness and say the Lord Jesus had not been resurrected. When the apostles spread the gospel of the Lord Jesus, the Pharisees fanatically captured and persecuted them. They wanted to ban the Lord Jesus’ work to obtain their ambitions of permanently controlling the religious community. The Pharisees believed in God in name only. In reality, they hated the truth and resisted God. The essence of their resistance and condemnation of the Lord Jesus was as follows: They were trying to compete with God and size Him up; they were fighting against God. The arrogance of their resistance and hatred of the Lord Jesus completely exposed their ambitions and exposed their evil, satanic face. Plus, it exposed their demonic antichrist nature: a refusal to repent, a frenzied hatred of the truth and a hatred of God. Isn’t that how the pastors and elders of the religious community treat Almighty God? If we could clearly see how the pastors and elders resist and condemn Almighty God, we would definitely know that the Pharisees resisted and condemned the Lord Jesus in the same way.
