Pharisee Failure live from NWA 26 (Matthew 23)
In this episode of Tough Text, Scott Keith and Daniel Emery Price explore Jesus' sharp rebuke of the scribes and Pharisees in Matthew 23, focusing on what it means to "call no man father" and why the passage is really about religious pride and hypocrisy rather than titles. They unpack how the Pharisees used God's Law to exalt themselves while neglecting mercy, justice, and faith, contrasting their self-righteousness with Christ, who alone is the true Teacher, Father, and Savior. Along the way, they show how Jesus' warnings ultimately point beyond human righteousness to the redeeming blood of Christ, the only hope for sinners.
