Tuna And Black Olive Butter Tramezzini

In contrast to the two commands of Christ, the Pharisees had developed a system of 613 laws, 365 negative commands and 248 positive laws... By the time Christ came it had produced a heartless, cold, and arrogant brand of righteousness. As such, it contained at least ten tragic flaws. 1. New laws continually need to be invented for new situations. 2. Accountability to God is replaced by accountability to men. 3. It reduces a person's ability to personally discern. 4. It creates a judgmental spirit. 5. The Pharisees confused personal preferences with divine law. 6. It produces inconsistencies. 7. It created a false standard of righteousness. 8. It became a burden to the Jews. 9. It was strictly external. 10. It was rejected by Christ.
