Luke 7:30-35

Luke 7:30-35 TPT

But the hearts of the Jewish religious leaders and experts of the law had rejected the clear purpose of God by refusing to be baptized by John. Jesus continued, saying, “How could I describe the people of this generation? Can’t you see? You’re like children playing games on the playground, complaining to friends, ‘You don’t like it when we want to play Wedding. And you don’t like it when we want to play Funeral. Why will you neither dance nor mourn?’ “When the prophet John came fasting and refused to drink wine, you said, ‘He’s crazy! There’s a demon in him.’ Yet when the Son of Man came feasting and drinking, you said, ‘Look at this man! He is nothing but a glutton and a drunkard. He spends all his time with tax collectors and other notorious sinners.’ “Nevertheless, the wisdom of God will be proven true by the expressions of godliness in everyone who follows me.”
