CONFIDENCE BIAS - NOVEMBER 5, 2023
The Pharisees and the leaders are on the chair of Moses. Jesus tells the people you can do everything they say, but just do not do what they do because they are not practicing. That temptation is our temptation, to have this overconfidence that we know exactly what God wants us to do at any one moment, and that we have the corner on the truth especially for others. And that is dangerous! Jesus basically condemns it. And he says we need to be humble, not only before each other, but before God.
