blinded?

Luke 6: 39
39 He also told them this parable: "Can the blind lead the blind? Will they not both fall into a pit?”

Jesus had gathered around Him, a great number of all kinds of needy people.
The Bible says that a “large crowd of His disciples”, had followed Him to the place where He spoke.

Not too far away, had to be the people Jesus had much debate with.
The religious elite were in close proximity, and Jesus spoke loud enough where they could clearly hear—and He didn’t mince any words.

I’m amazed at the people now days, who follow the advice of blind people.
Those blinded, are the ones who still have not embraced the real reason that Jesus came in the first place.

These people have good intentions, and they also have just enough Christian lingo in their vocal arsenal, to make them very dangerous.
Jesus was speaking mostly, to false church people.

Maybe we should take a lesson from Jesus, and call things as we see them.
Unfortunately, that wouldn’t be politically correct.

One question: Would you take advice on how to steer a ship, from the man who captained the Titanic?
People do every day, and then one day, they may in fact wonder, why it was they got lost in the first place…

·         What is this text of scripture, trying to teach me?
·         How am I currently falling short of the mark?
·         What am I really willing to change?

·         How can I make this change, a habit in my everyday life?
