Then the Lord said to him, “Now then, you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness. You foolish people! Did not the one who made the outside make the inside also? But now as for what is inside you—be generous to the poor, and everything will be clean for you.” Luke 11:39-41
There

the inside you’re selfish.
2. You aren’t generous to the poor.
3. You tithe but your heart isn’t joyful.
4. You neglect justice and the love of God.
5. You like to flaunt your position in the
church.
6.
You burden others with
things but you don’t follow those rules.
7.
You erect monuments to
people who you didn’t like.
8.
You don’t listen to
wise people.
9.
You don’t allow others
to listen to other people’s wisdom.
