Going deeper with Jesus

Beware of the pinnacles of human teaching. Or, Jesus said it better: Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.Matthew 16:6 Jesus did not elevate those who taught the doctrine of men:Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited
