Every plant not planted by my Father shall be rooted Up- Matthew 15

Jesus was very quick to reprimand the Pharisees, those who knew the scriptures and law so well but often misinterpreted and misapplied it. When they asked Jesus why his disciples didn't follow the tradition to wash hands before eating, Jesus replied, "why don't you follow the commandments of God because of your tradition?" This certainly didn't please them, but he pointedly explained how their traditions kept them from God rather than bringing them to God.

Jesus was very willing to correct those who wrongly judged, particularly those passing what they thought was "righteous judgement". That definitely created some enemies, but that was acceptable rather than letting clear truths continue to be trampled/ignored.

May we always be willing to express the truth when needed. Here's the verses explaining the encounter with the Pharisees:

3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your ^atradition?

4 For God commanded, saying, ^aHonour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, ^blet him die the death.

5 But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It isa ^agift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;

6 And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.

7 Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,

8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their ^amouth, and^bhonoureth me with their lips; but their ^cheart is far from me.

9 But in vain they do ^aworship me, teaching for ^bdoctrines the^ccommandments of men.

10 ¶And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:

11 Not that which goeth into the mouth ^adefileth a man; but that which cometh out of the ^bmouth, this defileth a man.

12 Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying?

13 But he answered and said, Every ^aplant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.
