Ok, I was just reading this:
Quote:
|
Matt 23:5 "But all their works they do to be seen by men."
|
Quote:
|
Matt23:12 "whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted"
|
Matthew 23 deals with motive alot.
Quote:
|
"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. Therefore you will receive greater condemnation."
|
Sure the person may have felt better now that someone has done something good for them, but they were selling you something that you should have got for free.
