“you are like unmarked graves” [Luke 11:44(NIV)]
January 19
<p><b>“you are like unmarked graves” . </b> This was Christ’s indictment of the Pharisees. When trusted, they turned out to be traps! And those falling into those traps found escape difficult.
All who care for others should take great pains not to abuse any trust or confidence placed in them.
Not only is there need for our spiritual leaders to inspire confidence in themselves and what they say: those who lead must exercise great care that what they say is wholesome and that the example they set is the way their followers should go.
Christ pointed this out to the Pharisees of His day. There will always be those who follow blindly; be sure you are not one who allows another with you to fall into an unmarked grave.</p>
