2. The Scribes, Pharisees and Sadducees of today

Today also the religious leadership have distorted the Word of God. Nowadays the Pharisees, Sadducees and Scribes are highly qualified theologians, who have set theirs own confession books alongside the Bible. In their confession books and with their traditions they distort the Word of God. Today ungodly clergymen study in the theological universities of this religious system, were they distort the Word of God according to their tradition. In their theological faculty they are fed so full of the traditional rules of the men, that they keep on opposing the real Gospel of Jesus Christ, and they concentrate on improving the world by human wisdom. 

There are three groups of Pharisees today. Firstly, Pharisees, Scribes and Sadducees, are in those churches were the traditions of men have been raised up parallel to the Bible. These Pharisees are very zealous from the traditions of theirs fathers and try very carefully to obey those instructions in their own life. They are faithful members on their own party.  They treat them as strange who don't obey the traditions of their fathers, but live from the faith of Jesus Christ. They are zealous on behalf of these fathers traditions, and defend them until their last breathe.

Secondly there are Pharisees who have succeeded in dividing from this party, but have then established their own parties, were they obey their own religious leaders traditions and rules. They are also fanatic defenders of their traditional rules and consider them strange who don't believe to Jesus Christ - in accordance with their traditions.

Thirdly is yet another party, they have departed from these two parties. They are outside the traditions of men, but they are also in danger of creating their own traditions, and unfortunately they are also Pharisaic. What l mean, is that all these Pharisees, which are similar to what the Bible says. In the other words people who obey in their life traditional religious human rules, whose intention is to distort the real teaching of the Word of God. Note! In all the above-mentioned parties there are those who love Jesus Christ and want to believe what is written in the Bible. Now all who believe in Jesus Christ would come out from the division of the denominations and start to gather in one body of Christ (one congregation) according to the prayer of Jesus Christ in John 17. Ecumenical work is not the same as what Jesus Christ prayed in John 17. Ecumenicalism teaches that all religions are a way to the same God, but this is heresy, because there is only one God, who has revealed Himself in the Bible. So Disciples of Christ must keep away from the ecumenicalism.
