 8.4-

There is a kind of religious person who is anxious to accuse others.  They think that religion is about showing who is wrong and who is right.  They are focused on testing the doctrines of others to make sure they conform to the orthodox point of view.  These kind of people tested Jesus Christ and tried to get Him off track of doing His Father’s will.

Mark 3.

He entered a synagogue again; and a man was there whose hand was withered. And they were watching Him [a]closely to see if He would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might accuse Him. He *said to the man with the withered hand, [b]Get up and come forward!” And He *said to them, “Is it lawful to do good on the Sabbath or to do harm, to save a life or to kill?” But they kept silent. After looking around at them with anger, grieved at their hardness of heart, He *said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And he stretched it out, and his hand was restored. The Pharisees went out and immediately began [c]conspiring with the Herodians against Him, as to how they might put Him to death.
