Bias
Are you serious? Because you can't be...these Pharisees are looking for every little thing to try and show that Jesus is not who he says he is. Have you ever been so stubborn in your opinion that you did everything you could to keep yourself from being or looking wrong? Sometimes the facts are undeniably against you, but you still seem to convince yourself otherwise. It's like the Chicago Cubs. I'm a huge fan of the Cubs, and if a Cards or Sox fan is dissing them, I feel it's my responsibility to point out the fact that we won the last series, they lost the World Series in 4 games, or whatever...even though they may clearly have a better team. I have a bias. The Pharisees had a bias. Jesus was clearly doing things that proved he was the Messiah, but they could not except the fact that they would be out of a job. Jesus was healing people, and the religious folk had a problem with it because it was on the Sabbath?! Give me a break. How about you open your eyes. Rather than look for the faults where there are none, humble yourself and accept the truth. It's not always fun to be wrong, but the truth will set you free!
