deeply wounded

Matthew 23:1-15

not everything is spiritual abuse

Matthew 23:1-15

Matthew 23:1-4 “The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. So you must be careful to do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach. They tie up heavy, cumbersome loads and put them on other people’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.

spiritual abuse Weighs people down

Stuff on a donkey’s back

spiritual abuse Weighs people down crushed under the weight

If all people were like you, would they: Be in Sunday School every Sunday? Be on time for Sunday School? Bring a Bible? Have studied the lesson? Bring an offering? Attend the preaching service? Make an effort to worship during the service? Bring someone with them? Bring a guest?

you’ve got to follow this list of rules to be right with God

Matthew 11:28-30 Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened down, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke on you and learn from me for I am gentle and humble in heart and you will find rest for your souls for my yoke is easy and my burden is light.

Matthew 23:5-7 Everything they do is done for people to see: They make their phylacteries wide and the tassels on their garments long; they love the place of honor at banquets and the most important seats in the synagogues; they love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and to be called ‘Rabbi’ by others.

spiritual abuse Weighs people down Sucks people dry

Luke 20:47 They devour widows’ houses and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will be punished most severely.

Ezekiel 34:1-3 Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel; prophesy and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Woe to you shepherds of Israel who only take care of yourselves! Should not shepherds take care of the flock? You eat the curds, clothe yourselves with the wool and slaughter the choice animals, but you do not take care of the flock.

Matthew 23:8-10 But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers. And do not call anyone on earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one Instructor, the Messiah.

spiritual abuse Weighs people down Sucks people dry Shuts people up

So when a leader’s teachings or authority, opinions get mixed up with… Christ… abuse.

Matthew 23:13 Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You shut the door of the kingdom of heaven in people’s faces. You yourselves do not enter, nor will you let those enter who are trying to.

spiritual abuse Weighs people down Sucks people dry Shuts people up Cuts people off

Matthew 23:13 Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You shut the door of the kingdom of heaven in people’s faces. You yourselves do not enter, nor will you let those enter who are trying to. You religious leaders, you won’t enter God’s kingdom

Matthew 23:15 Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and when you have succeeded, you make them twice as much a child of hell as you are.

spiritual abuse Weighs people down Suck people dry Shuts people up Cuts people off Locks people in

we and we alone have the truth These churches say they have the corner on truth.

no choice Bottom line was they felt like they had no choice

How do you get mended?

Romans 12:2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is— his good, pleasing and perfect will.
