As wicked Pharisees plot, Jesus goes into multiplication mode.
Early Jewish readers would have noticed the contrast between the old (Pharisees) and the new (Jesus).
God’s message is Jesus, but God’s messengers are many.
Some people look for a reason to trust Jesus. Others look for a reason to condemn Jesus.
Be a multiplying messenger.
Expect some hearts to remain hardened. Proclaim the message anyway…and equip others to do the same.
Father, help me do this faithfully and in your power.
